Charlton Apartments is located in the perfect position on the Esplanade.  With direct views of the beach and ocean from even the ground floor units, beautiful landscaped grounds, picnic and BBQ facilities both within the resort and across the road. 

Within easy walking distance to the many fabulous cafes and restaurants as well as being close to the local shops, markets and local attractions.  And with the added bonus of being within the boundaries of the courtesy bus for both the RSL and Boat Clubs - both clubs have courtesy buses leaving every hour on the hour from their respective venues.  A simple telephone call secures your seat on the bus!

For those keen fishermen amongst us take a stroll across the road and spend a couple of hours catching a nice meal of whiting or flathead. 

Or for those keen enough, walk down the Esplanade and out to the end of the Urangan Pier to where the deep water channel is for some bigger fish!

A simple stroll along the beach can often result in dugong and dolphin sightings and if you're really lucky during the whale season sometimes a pod of whales can even be spotted frolicking a bit further out.
