The top Airbnbs in Broome run the gamut from dreamy hideouts to luxe coastal escapes – each one soaked in the same wild magic as the town itself.
Broome doesn’t do boring. From elegant pearlmaster-style homes to beachy retreats with front-row seats to Roebuck Bay, this town is peppered with stays that blur the line between home and holiday fantasy.
Blending comfort with creativity, the best Airbnbs in Broome aren’t just places to sleep – they’re part of the adventure. Whether you’re after a cosy cabin with a breezy deck or a palace-style home with a sprawling pool and room for the whole crew, there’s a spot here with your name on it.
1. Guwarri Bayside Retreat
Guwarri has that rare Broome magic – timeless charm with a side of barefoot luxury. Housed in a beautifully reimagined pearlmaster’s villa, it leans into the tropical romance of old Broome with timber floors, French doors and wraparound verandas that invite you to slow down.
Located near Town Beach, you’re metres from the shoreline, bustling markets, restaurants and even the Staircase to the Moon – all without needing the car keys. Inside, there are two queen bedrooms tucked into the heart of the house, a full kitchen, plus all the touches that matter: air-con in every room, Netflix-ready TV, luxe linen and even an outdoor BBQ zone for twilight dinners.
2. Pindan Cable Beach
Pindan has that easygoing, sun-drenched feel that Broome does best. Days here start with the scent of mangoes and end with salty hair and a quick dip in the jellybean-shaped pool. It’s a ten-minute wander straight to Cable Beach, with camels often your only traffic. Cafes, the new Spinifex Brewing Co and local restaurants are all close enough to make planning dinner an afterthought.
A generous queen bed anchors the main bedroom, while two sets of wooden bunks sleep four more – perfect for kids. The newly refurbished interiors lean into soft, coastal tones and tactile materials, creating a breezy space that feels more like a friend’s holiday home than a rental. The outdoor shower tucked under the mango tree is a small detail you’ll find yourself thinking about long after you’ve left.
3. Broome Sky-view
With uninterrupted views of Roebuck Bay, Broome Sky-view is the kind of place that makes you pause. It’s an architecturally striking hideaway with soaring 5-metre windows that frame the shifting colours of the Kimberley sky. From the wide balcony, you can watch the tide roll in, or the Staircase to the Moon rise, with a cool drink in hand and not a tourist bus in sight. Town Beach is just minutes away on foot, and the local markets, cafes and bars are all within easy reach.
Inside, there’s a well-equipped kitchen, two serene bedrooms and a living space that spills out onto the balcony like it was designed for sundowners. A soak in the pool seals the deal.
4. The Quarters
The Quarters is pure Broome charm distilled into one leafy, barefoot-friendly retreat. Tucked into lush tropical gardens, it feels like your own little slice of the Kimberley. The real showstopper? A claw-foot bath in the open-air bathroom, where showers come with frangipani-scented breezes and baths are taken under the stars.
While The Quarters may lean toward minimalist luxury, it’s got everything you need – a kitchenette, shady nooks, private parking behind a gate and a BBQ for twilight cookups. It’s mid-way between Cable Beach and Chinatown, so having your own wheels is essential (and worth it, with the host offering local tips on those lesser-known Broome gems).

10. Red Emperor Villas
Set in the leafy streets of Old Broome, this set of three villas would make an ideal stay for a band of travelling couples, friends or extended family. It’s a bit outside of the main action, but having use of the property’s bicycles is a bonus.
Red Emperor Villa 1, 2 and 3 each have an ensuite and outside there’s a small pool and large communal kitchen if you’re opting for a balmy evening cook-up.
11. Home with 11-m pool in Cable Beach
Tucked away in Broome’s most sought-after pocket, this palm-fringed retreat is less a holiday house and more your own private resort – with a generous dose of barefoot luxury. The sprawling 11-metre lap pool steals the spotlight, framed by tropical gardens and an alfresco setup made for long, lazy afternoons. Kids tear around the Monkey Bars while adults debate whether to hit the Air Hockey table or pour another G&T. You’re a ten-minute stroll from Cable Beach, but honestly, you may not want to leave the backyard.
Inside, it’s all airy, open-plan bliss – clean lines, zero clutter and everything exactly where you need it. Sleeping ten across three air-conditioned bedrooms, it’s a crowd-pleaser for multi-gen escapes, big family holidays or reunions with the mates you’ve been promising to see for years.
12. Coconutz B&B
Just over 25 kilometres from Broome, Coconutz B&B in Coconut Well offers two eco tents with queen beds, private bathrooms and outdoor tubs. Each tent has its own open-air kitchen with a barbecue, fridge and all the basics for cooking – or you can order woodfired pizza, steak packs or grazing platters delivered to your tent or poolside.
The property backs onto a tidal lagoon that fills through the dunes when the tide hits nine metres or more – check the chart before you go. The beach nearby is scattered with rockpools that hold marine life between tides. Roebuck Plains Roadhouse and the Broome Bird Observatory are both within driving distance, but staying put isn’t a bad option, either.
