This was the perfect choice for our stay in Hervey bay. Close to the trips and pickup points. The room or should I say apartment was perfect for us. We managed to do all our laundry and get it dry on our last evening. We checked out and sat around the pool whilst waiting for our airport transfer and had a cheeky last dip. We also had a breakfast on our last day and this was brilliant. We filled up for the day and the choice was great. Thank you for making our stay perfect.

Very disappointed. Hope this place because it had a pool and a spa. Nowhere on the website or booking conditions or any email did they inform me that the pool and spa are currently under renovations made disappointing trip particularly book this place for the extra large size pool.. Unit was perfectly spacious. Did have any internal laundry which was great after travelling for quite a few days units a little out of town about a 20 minute walk to town close to Marina and cafes though. Would’ve appreciated a heads up for some sort of communication regarding the pool be closed and even an offset of some sort of credit towards the booking.
