22 unique Airbnbs and stays around WA

Plus have a squiz at the updated $35M proposal for the new Spicers Hotel in Freo.

August 12, 2025

Sometimes the content within the newsletter dictates itself, and for whatever reason today’s has a unique/quirky theme that was unintentional, though we’re not upset about it. The unique stays list has been kicking around for a while, but we’ve found plenty of new spots lately to add to it, and we’re feeling cautiously optimistic about jagging availabilities for some of them! Likewise a couple of cool and fun/quirky bars have popped up in the past little while that are worth checking out - along with the classics, of course (Hula Bula Friday cocktails will never get old).

And in some very late news yesterday that would be rude not to touch on, Nat Fyfe has announced he’ll retire at the end of the year. If Freo needed any further motivation to get to the big dance this September, they’ve sure got it now - an absolute champion of the game.
