Very nice
We had a pleasant stay here. This was a just a one night overnight stay and it did what it said on the tin. The owner of the hotel was most informative. This hotel is almost at the top of the hill and there is some fabulous views.

Amazing view, but old and tired building.
It was OK for one night. I wouldn't want to stay any longer. Pool was very small, spa didn't work. View was amazing, but we couldn't keep the door open because there is no screen door to keep out the mozzies and flies. There wasn't a cupboard to hang our clothes either.

Thanks for the review, most people love it here and wish they could stay longer, yes the pool is small, and yes the view from it and all the suites is amazing :) the out side spa is currently out of action but both pool and spa are heated to 27degrees, and you also have a large spa bath inside your suite <3 there are hangers in the siding wardrobe . Building isn't old, built in 1999 and had a freshen up in 2012. No fly screen on the main doors but all 4 of the windows have mosquito screens.

One of the best places Ive stayed at. Great value.
Definitely one of the best places I've ever stayed at. Not a new place but that doesn't matter when you have a lovely open view to the beach and surrounding bush land and nice clean and well maintained facilities. Loved the outdoor BBQ area and pool. All facilities were very clean with plenty of utensils for cooking as you needed to. Very peaceful surroundings. The room facilities were just right although the bed was a little too firm.The bathroom was very spacious, more than meeting our needs. I would definitely consider going back to Escape 1770 when planning my next break. Great value for money. Our host(sorry forgot his name) was very helpful and friendly, nothing was too much trouble.

Relaxed comfortable stay
A last minute stopover was a real treat. Great communication from hotel. Friendly, laid back stay. Very comfortable king size bed with spa, and large room. The only downside perhaps was that the bar fridge wasn’t plugged in when we arrived. Ate our dinner on the verandah watching the sun go down over the bay.

this escape 1770 doesn't let you escape from your worries once on holiday it just brings fear and highly untoleatred anxiety through pure hatred at your self for booking this accommodation when you really needed a CLEAN, comfortable stay where you can cook your own meals and swim in a clean refreshing pool to re energise from the Northern Queensland sun. This apartment has cockroaches in your room, uncontrolled temperature in the shower , the outdoor BBQ has so much grime that it has four layers of grease so you won't even contemplate making your own meals, the plates and cutlery reside in a filthy cupboard, the kitchen tap spurts water at irregular flows, and the pool is filled with dead insects that leave you screaming !!! A word of advice DON'T BOOK HERE!!

ahh "anonymous" leaves the city life to enjoy the "quiet country" only to find the shops shut at 8pm, coffee "undrinkable" and while in the tropic's they found bugs! who would have thought! dead cockroach means the pest control measures are working. the shower is a manual adjust, (means you have to turn the handles) it's been dry and windy = pretty dusty and the pool, when it's so dry, bug need water too, and when they land in the pool and drink the pool water they die. then they get sucked into the skimmer box. the rooms are spotless. clean and tidy. the outside isn't my advice to you? next time, stay in the city. the country isn't for everyone.

Thanks Graham for the lovely accurate review, we are blessed to have such a wonderful spot on the hill with such a great view and so close to the beach/shops. The abundance of No Smoking signs are because smokers will smoke anywhere there is not a sign. believe me i was so surprised but the proof was in the pudding.

I wasn't aware of your dissatisfaction until now and because you've chosen to remain "Anonymous" i guess i'll never know :( i am curious to hear more from you

On positive notes this was really good value. Nice location and sea view. Pool. Undercover parking. A flannel to apply these new liquid bathroom soaps which too many places omit.friendly staff. Ok wifi. On minor negative issues we discovered room personnel forgot to provide coffee cups, glasses and cows juice for the tea bags and coffee provided. It’s a good place with good room price.

We enjoyed our stay, we didnt see any staff, a note was left for us so we could find our room . Which was nice , but the tv was afixed to the ceiling and terrible to sit on the couch and look up . Also they should upgrade their towels as they were very old and scratchy. An awesome view nice centrally located to town .

Amazing view and very peaceful location
The view was amazing at this hotel and it was very peaceful. I think we were the only people staying there.The only issues we had were small such as, hot water would go from hot to cold and back again continually. Wifi signal was very patchy and would cut in and out all the time. Otherwise everything else was great!
