Given disabled room & not advised. Shower curtain too small. Water ends up running across the floor towards the door. Nowhere to put anything in bathroom - one tiny shelf. Nowhere to hang clothes in the room. Only one chair. Not enough parking. Good aircon. Reasonable bed.

Enjoyed our stay here. Staff were lovely and friendly and the room was good! Love the pool area and the property’s location as it’s close to everything. Only little problem we had was that the air conditioner wasn’t working very well in our room which we didn’t discover until we went to bed late at night after an event we attended. It still worked but just didn’t get very cold.

Lovely resort with great facilities and dining options. Staff were helpful and exceptionally friendly. Great location with secure parking. Villa itself is a little run down. Air conditioners don’t work very well so it was quite uncomfortable in that respect however the villa provided ample space for our family with multiple beds, showers and toilets. Overall, we enjoyed our short stay, thank you.

Townsville must have won the Grand Final on the day we stayed. There were revellers partying till midnight around the rooftop pool and bar three millimetres from our unit door, after which they all moved to the street screaming yelling and vomiting until 4am. Never again.

The rooms are quite small, which is why they didn't get an excellent rating. A king sized bed doesn't leave much space when a couple with a suitcase each are occupying the room.

Unfortunately for us as over 80’s. Parking and access was a disaster. A very, very steep drive to the underground parking was beyond me - driving a borrowed car. Extremely steep stairs from the upstairs parking were beyond us - let alone carrying luggage down. The lovely general manager JR or RJ drove and parked the van and helped with luggage

Lovely hotel, close to maggie ferry. Rooms clean, great shower and a nice big bed, all we needed Pool was lovely to sit at for a while, we didnt swim in it. Only thing that was disappointing was that we were overcharged as handed in the vouchers for free drinks for guest with dinner but still were charged and given the wrong chicken schnitzel. All in all, if ever in Oz again, i would stay again and do recommend the Hotel
