Cruise Letter: Spring is calling!

Spring has arrived in Manly, and with it comes that irresistible mix of sunshine, salty air, and the promise of warmer days. At Stoke Beach House, we’re leaning all the way in — our September events calendar is bursting with reasons to get out of bed, put your phone down, and actually do something (besides scrolling). From belly-laugh trivia nights to slow Saturday morning yoga, from mouthwatering lasagna to our legendary Stokeolympics, we’ve planned a month that’s equal parts relaxation, socialising, and good old-fashioned silliness.

Here’s what you’ve got to look forward to this month:

Weekly Events: Your Stoke Routine

  • Mondays are for winding down. Every week, our guests get to vote for which film hits the big screen, we dim the lights, pop endless bowls of buttery goodness, and let the movie magic take over. Whether you’re into cult classics, rom-coms, or something a little scarier, Monday night is your license to lounge.

  • Our free yoga sessions are designed to keep you grounded, stretched, and ready for whatever adventures you’ve got lined up:

    • Mondays 8 AM: Start the week slow and steady in our relaxed in-house studio space.

    • Wednesdays 8 AM at the Beach: Few things beat a morning stretch with waves crashing just metres away.

    • Saturdays 9 AM: Gentle weekend flow to reset after a week of fun.

  • We take our games seriously. Tuesdays alternate between high-energy ping pong competitions and epic board game battles. One week you might be testing your reflexes and paddle skills, the next you’re strategising over a round of Monopoly with new mates. Prizes are on the line.

  • When Thursday night rolls around, we trade the courtyard bar for Manly’s bar scene. Each week we mix up the route so you can discover a new favourite watering hole (or two… or three). It’s the perfect warm-up for the weekend — or, let’s be honest, the main event.

  • Friday is our night to bring you a proper feast, and September’s lineup is pure comfort food joy:

    • 5th & 19th September – Aussie BBQ: Embrace the true Aussie way of kicking off the weekend.

    • 12th September – Make Your Own Pizza Night: We supply the dough, sauce, toppings, and oven — you supply the creativity (and the appetite).

    • 26th September – Lasagna Night: Layer upon layer of cheesy, saucy goodness to soak up whatever Thursday’s pub crawl left behind.

Specials This September

  • Gather your smartest friends (or the ones who just happen to know random facts about 90s pop culture) and join us for a night of questions, laughs, and the occasional ridiculous tiebreaker.

  • Think your aim is good? Think again. Our beer pong nights are loud, competitive, and just the right amount of messy.

  • It’s like normal pool, but with a knockout twist — one wrong shot and you’re out. No pressure.

  • We swap numbers for tunes and watch as the room fills with singalongs, dance moves, and cries of “Bingo!”

  • A paintbrush in one hand, a glass of wine in the other. What could go wrong? Spoiler: nothing. You’ll leave with your own masterpiece and maybe a new friend or two.

  • A day of utterly ridiculous challenges, cheeky team rivalry, and the kind of laughter you’ll still be talking about next month. Medals may be up for grabs, but eternal glory is the real prize.

Whether you’re here for the food, the fitness, the parties, or all of the above, September at Stoke Beach House is your ticket to making the most of spring in Manly. Rooms are already filling up fast, so lock in your stay now and join the fun before we sell out.
