8.8/10 Excellent! (654 reviews)
Hotel was quiet and spacious. But wifi was terrible and room needs to be refurbished. But main concern was with check-in: it would have saved a great deal of stress and confusion if we’d been told the check-in procedures before beginning our trip - at least a day in advance. As it was, we arrived at the hotel with reception closed, no wifi, no phone linked to a local network. We were lucky to even get into the lobby. It was only through some creativity we were able to find out how to access our room key, and after a stressful period of uncertainty. This was not a good start to our stay.

I’d definitely stay here again. The staff and everything about the hotel was first class. The rooms are clean and comfortable with some nice touches. The staff are friendly, helpful and welcoming The valet parking was easy and convenient. The hotel is situated well but for the city centre, shopping and restaurants it could be quite a walk for some ( about 1 - 1.5 miles) for us it was no problem

Blue Lagoon on Moreton Island is only accessible by boat and then 4WD. As moreton is the 3rd largest sand island in the world, the water is always close to the surface and is filtered by the sand, so it is fresh water - any brown tinge to the water is tannin from the tea trees. The Lagoon is a short walk from the carpark. Tours and 4WD hire are available from Tangalooma Resort or you can take your own 4WD over on the Micat Vehicular Ferry
