No, we do not have a pickup service, but Broome Taxis run a bus service that meets every plane which lands at the Broome Airport. This costs approximately $10 per person and will drop you at the front of Cable Beachside Villas. This takes about 40 minutes.

Also known as Stairway to the Moon, the Staircase to the Moon is a natural phenomenon where the full moon reflects of the tidal flats in Roebuck Bay at low tide. This event occurs for 3 nights on the full moon from March to October each year.
2018 Staircase dates:
The moon rise is approximately 1 hour later each night.
Staircase markets operate on the first two nights and the town bus service puts on extra bus services for these nights as well to ensure guests can get home from Roebuck Bay. (Market dates are subject to change).
The Staircase to the Moon dates are very popular and our villas book out well in advance of these dates.
Of course, Broome is famous for Cable Beach, a 20km stretch of amazing coastline. The beach is very popular for swimming, sunbathing, fishing and four-wheel driving.

We offer a full booking service for all tours in and around Broome. If there is something special you wish to do, please enquire and we will help you with advice and booking.
During the busy peak season, it is important to book your tours in advance as they often book out, and in the off-peak season, tours do not run every day, so it is a good idea to plan ahead and book these in advance.

There is a full round of events in the week leading up to the Broome Cup, and this is a very popular time to be in Broome. Our villas are normally booked out 10 to 11 months in advance for this period, as we have a lot of return guests who stay with us especially for the Broome Cup week.
While our names are similar, there is no connection between our villas and the Cable Beach Club Resort (also more commonly known as Cable Beach Resort). We are a completely separate business. Cable Beach Club Resort is a large full service villas with over 250 rooms and villas.
Cable Beachside Villas prides itself on being small, exclusive and friendly and we feel that your stay here will be very enjoyable. If you have a function at the Cable Beach Club Resort, then we are only a short 10 minute walk from their function centre and restaurants.
There are two reasons for this change.
Our name was very similar to Cable Beach Club Resort. This is a large resort with over 250 rooms, and is more commonly known as Cable Beach Resort. Hence the confusion with the name Cable Beachside Resort. Many people contacted us for information and bookings, thinking that they were ringing Cable Beach Club Resort. This was a source of frustration for these people and for our staff.
Also, the name Cable Beachside Resort implies that this property has resort facilities, such as restaurants, bars, health spa, etc - all of which you might expect to find at a full service resort, and which are not available at Cable Beachside Villas.
Cable Beachside Villas is a small complex of very spacious apartments, and while we do not have onsite facilities, such as a restaurant, gym, etc, we are right in the heart of Cable Beach and walking distance to everything you need.
