Established in 1946 by the late Ivan and Dulcie Tickle, Siesta is still owned and run by the Tickle family. Siesta has developed a distinct character over these years which is reflected in its casual atmosphere and natural spacious grounds.

Siesta lies along 400 meters of Geographe Bay's sparkling water and white sandy beach. With its parkland of lawns and peppermint trees flowing onto the beach, the perfect setting for enjoying the Bay is at your finger tips. The self contained villas and chalets face the beach, with most boasting fantastic views across the bay. In the evenings barbequing and a chance to experience the moonlight across the water are part of living by the bay at Siesta.

The beach and seabed beyond is gradually sloping, clean and safe for children. Hire row boats, a private jetty and private boat ramp enable fishermen and swimmers to enjoy the tranquil waters of Geographe Bay. Fishing both close to shore and further out is good in season (especially spring) and drop netting for crabs is best in the winter and early spring months.

Siesta is well known for its numerous items of exciting adventure play equipment including the flying fox, Tarzan swing and more. There are also many more subtle items of play equipment for the really young ones. Tennis courts are free to use and table tennis can be played in the games room.
