The beach is framed by two granite outcrops which provide a haven for a wonderful range of fish and coral just a short swim from the beach. There is also a little resort next to the car park. This is taken from Rotary Outlook which is about 10 min walk from the carpark.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/10668/42d5cfe8-f4df-451c-9e3b-88a6c92e66d0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1200&h=500&q=medium) Photo by Jesper Munch ![](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/10668/42d5cfe8-f4df-451c-9e3b-88a6c92e66d0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1200&h=500&q=medium) ## Check prices for these dates Next weekend [Mar 13 -

Firstly they stuffed my room up. They had moved me and resold my room - provided me with a couple of classic boomer lies. ‘Didn’t want you to be near kids, upstairs is better than downstairs’ etc. Now I had a room with two extra beds that I couldn’t use and no where comfortable to sit. I made a complaint via the check in process. This got fundamentally ignored. I got a ‘don’t reply’ message to go to office to speak to Janet the following day. Janet flatly denied sending me this text when I went there. Looked at me colder than a Tasmanian mother-in-law and couldn’t shuffle me off quick enough even though I told her my name and mentioned the text. When I got back to my room I received another nuisance text to go check-in although I had already stayed one night. Later that night I received another text. By this stage I was quite over this booking mistake. In short there are plenty of nice places to stay in Bowen, avoid the hassle and confusion of this place. I didn’t get what I had booked and picked up a few headaches along the way. Rose Bay does look nicer."
