Great location away from main roads and traffic noise and right on the beach front. There are a couple of maintenance issues that require attention, probably the result of salt air infiltration.

It was convenient for us to attend a wedding. However our dinner on Friday night was way understaffed. Food was nice but time management was very poor. Our room was ok and spacious though dated and the bed was not too comfortable. The floors were dirty and we had a construction site at our door way. The pool and gardens though are impressive with an awesome site for sunsets. We would probably stay somewhere else though if visiting Mackay again

Beautiful View

No complaints here. The property was clean and the view was great. Finding the unit was a bit tricky in the dark as the signs aren’t clear but no complaints about my stay. I would gladly chose this location again if in the area.

Christmas getaway

Loved the relaxed atmosphere of the resort. The pool is the centre of activity and being located on the ocean front is just amazing. The unit has everything thing you need for basic self catering and liked that it has a full sized fridge. The view over the gardens towards the ocean is very pleasant to wake up to.

Christmas stay

The unit is part of a resort. It has easy access to pool and front beach. We self catered (restaurant/bar not in operation) and we appreciated having a full sized fridge. We only live a 5 minute drive away so was just a quick getaway. Although the resort was apparently booked out we hardly saw anyone. I would go back again.
