'Peoples main concerns are hygiene surprisingly, and of course, we wouldn't do anything that's unhygienic,' said Ms Struik.
While many cinemas in the larger centres come fitted out with beds, the Queensland town is the first to offer the experience to regional cinemagoers.
'It allows us to give our general admission [moviegoers] a different type of experience,' said Ms Struik.
The cinema has also installed infra-red cameras to allow staff to keep a close eye on what's going on in case guests attempt anything too intimate.
Although Ms Struik said staff are keeping a watch on things, generally those in the beds are 'well behaved' and are respectful of others around them.
