Pepperoni , prosciutto, prawns 🦐 or pulled pork 🍗, pizzas 🍕and their toppings have come a long way since their ancient beginnings.
So, whether you’re pro pineapple 🍍 or fiercely 😡 fruitless, today we celebrate the world’s most popular fast food, with our top pics for Mission Beach.
𝐼𝓉'𝓈 𝒶𝓁𝓁 𝒶𝒷𝑜𝓊𝓉 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒷𝒶𝓈𝑒…
Mad Pizza Mission use their award winning 36 hour fermented sourdough 🥖to create a 12 inch thin and crispy base. Add simple, traditional toppings like cherry tomato sauce 🍅, mozzarella 🧀, artichoke, prosciutto and Italian salami and you have a winning combination. Pick up Italian classics like Margherita, Daviola and Capricciosa from 5 to 8.30pm, 7 days a week.

Craft beer 🍺, live music 🎤 and gourmet wood fired pizzas 🍕 combine to create the ultimate Sunday session at The Garage Bar and Brewhouse . Here, the humble pizza is transformed from an Italian classic to a worldly wonder. Shrimply the Best 🍤, Getting Piggy with it 🍗 and Prawn to be Wild 🦐, just a few of the creations captured on the menu.

Nestled into a garden 🌿in Wongaling Beach is Caffe Rustica our very own Trattoria in the Tropics 🏝️. Woody has been preparing his pizzas for over 20 years and watching him whip one up in the open kitchen is part of the fun. But don’t stop or start with the pizzas 🍕, their homemade antipasta 🥖🧀and gelati and sorbets 🍨are sooo worth forgoing that last slice of pizza for!

Shannon Hunter 🎶 set the scene with a fabulous mix of Aussie rock, country, folk and pop from across the ages (how he can play guitar 🎸, tamborine with his foot and didg at the same time is beyond me), and of course the team at Tuskers delivered the best food ever 🍗!
Book yourselves in for dinner at Tuskers, you won’t be disappointed 😁.

Abbi is our fabulous fur-baby 🐕 —a border collie who will hit the 15-year milestone this year. We have travelled with her since we picked her up at 5 weeks old, and she loves it 😍! But, she is now a senior citizen, so we decided to share our best travel tips with you.
ᗷEᗪ
With a border collie with arthritis you can’t underestimate the need for a good bed 🛏️ and to allow space to travel with it. We have the TONTINE for older pets, it’s great, but takes up a lot of space. So pack it first and work out your space around it.
ᗪᗩIᒪY ᖇOᑌTIᑎE
Ok, so this can be hard when you travel. But Abbi knows walk 🐕🦺 time every morning is at 5.30am (aggh I know) 😲. Despite not being able to walk so far or as quickly, it’s essential for her mental and physical well-being, so we keep it going while we are away. (Otherwise, she won’t let us hear the end of it! 🤭)
ᗰEᗪIᑕᗩTIOᑎ
It goes without saying that just like hoomans, Abbi’s medical needs have increased with age. Make sure you pack all your pooch needs for your trip away 💊💉and look up a good vet 🩺 at your destination, just in case.
ᖴOOᗪ
As Abbi has gotten older, her diet has had to change. We now have vegies every night 🎃🌽🥕. This is not only good for her gut, but now she can’t chase the frisbee all day it helps to reduce weight gain. So how do you travel with this? Pre-cook, pack and freeze ❄️! If travelling for long periods, then allow for a stop with some cooking facilities 🍳. She also has special prescription dry-food, so we wither pack enough, or know where we can pick some up along the way. Having consistency in food is really important.
ᗩᑕᑕOᗰᗰOᗪᗩTIOᑎ
Unfortunately, not all of Australia has gotten with the pet-friendly program. So, we still find we have to book in advance. Think about the type of accommodation you book. Abbi isn’t great with stairs anymore 😔, so single level accommodation is a must, and somewhere that has a secure outdoor area is also great. Older dogs tire easily, so while we go out to dinner 🦐, Abbi is happy to chill in front of the teli!

Litoria is a new pavilion home tucked against rainforest and about 150m from the beach in Mission Beach. Kids love the free splash pad, playground, skate park and basketball court just a 5–10min walk away.
You’ll love Litoria’s breezeway and living pod that opens to capture the sea breezes. With 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, free Wi-Fi and a fully fenced yard, Litoria provides the perfect getaway for couples or small or large families (including the furry kind).
Litoria was designed for holidaying in the tropics—the perfect place to relax with family and friends. We’ve done many road trips staying in some great holiday houses and we wanted to include the best bits in our little piece of paradise. Whether you’re escaping the hustle and bustle for a weekend or wanting to stay a little longer, Litoria is more than just a place to lay your head—it’s a tropical holiday experience.
Experience nature without compromising your creature comforts with the modern open plan design.
You’ll enjoy rainforest and garden views from the kitchen, living and dining building (pod) which opens up onto the outdoor living area—the heart of the house. Why not whip up a gourmet dinner in the fully equipped kitchen (down to the kitchen scales), throw a sausage on the barbecue on the undercover patio or brew up an early morning coffee and enjoy the birdsongs on the back deck before the rest of the house rises!
At Litoria the indoors merge with the out, providing a relaxed resort feel.
Living and bedroom pods are connected by a decked breezeway, interspersed with gardens and a water feature, which captures the cool sea breezes. Our modern bathrooms also embrace our tropical surrounds, opening up onto private garden courtyards.
Fully pet friendly with concrete floors and fences, there is no need to leave your furry friend at home.
To make your stay comfortable we’ve also included:
a welcome kit on arrival with some basics such as tea, coffee, sugar, milk, dishwashing detergent etc. just to get you started
free Wi-Fi
television and soundbar in the living area (sound bar has wireless speakers that can be removed to create surround sound)
50 inch smart television in Living Pod and a 32 inch TV in the main bedroom
board games
bean bags for the kids (or big kids at heart)
fully equipped kitchen with walk-in pantry
cook books
Nespresso machine
dishwasher
barbecue with hood and gas burner—perfect for all outdoor chefs
ceiling fans and air-conditioning throughout
fully fenced garden
undercover parking suitable for caravans, boats and RVs.
Configuration
As a pavilion home our bedrooms are spread over two pods (buildings), however for couples or small families we offer access to just one of the bedroom pods at a reduced nightly rate. You will still have exclusive use of the property, but access to one bedroom pod only. The main bedroom pod has two bedrooms, ensuite, powder room and laundry (with washer and dryer). The second bedroom pod has 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. All bedrooms have air-conditioning, a ceiling fan, security screens on opening windows, a wardrobe, bedside tables and lamps.
Note: while there is a separate powder room with toilet and basin in the main bedroom pod, if you choose this option then all visitors will need to share the shower in the ensuite.

Master bedroom (sleeps 2)—1 x queen bed, ensuite with private garden courtyard, walk-in-robe and television
Bedroom 2 (sleeps 2)—1 x double bed
Second bedroom pod
