The room was clean and comfortable, just what we needed. There's a bar and restaurant in the property open till late. Life saver in case you're arriving late in a town where everything closes early. Rooms are far enough from the bar, so you can have a good nite sleep

The studio cabin was clean, spacious and had all your basic esstential needs. The grounds were well set out, maintained with great athestic appeal, but the greatest advantage was the access to the beach and walking paths.

What Guests Said About Bowen:

Such a pretty place.

Such a pretty place. Lots of beautiful beaches you can swim at and plenty of lookouts. Dining was not too bad with 360 on the Hill, good Italian meals at Flagstaff Hill a must, and plenty of cafe's. Streets are very easy to drive with super wide roads. Perfect climate, not too hot and not cold, even on a hot day the sea breeze keeps you cool. Has everything you need for groceries with Woolies and IGA within 5-10 mins drive and also Supercheap and Home Hardware and Mitre 10. A few speciality stores and a shoe store which we don't have in our 'bigger' town. Also the Big Mango information centre was fantastic. The jetty for fishing only 5-10 mins drive. Only 1 hour from Airlie Beach and 2 hours from Mackay. Plenty of accommodation in and around Bowen. Loved it! Will be going back for sure.

The location is quite lovely and the accommodation very well maintained, clean and more than adequate. Staff are so polite and happy to help. It is well worth a stay just to get grounded in a lovely environment.

Bowen the top end of the Whitsundays.

Bowen the top end of the Whitsundays. It was a lovely stay in town at the Harbour Lights Caravan Park. This was close to the Marina, across the road from the foreshore, Olympic pool, and A short stroll to eateries. Bowen was very quiet at night and I felt safe walking around. There was also resort style accommodation, which looked amazing as well. I hope to return in the future and stay longer just to relax.

I liked the Don River Dash the most as that was the main reason for being in Bowen at the time. My partner was competing and we didn't have time to travel home the Sunday of the Don River Dash and decided to stay an extra night at the Bowen holiday park. As for the late night we simply uber eats domino's pizza which was very delicious and the delivery person was very lovely and fast. I did visit the town with a friend to get some supplies, and the community was very lovely and the town was clean. Would definitely stay in here again.

It's not called Blowin' Bowen for nothing!

It's not called Blowin' Bowen for nothing! It was extremely windy, particularly on the beaches. Locals told us it is always windy in Bowen. Horseshoe Bay and Gray Bay are gorgeous and Gray Bay was sheltered. Highly recommend a visit to both beaches. We had a lovely meal at the Bowen Hotel.

I think we had the room with the best view! Our balcony overlooked the beautiful gardens and the sea/beach. It was incredible as we arrived just before sunset. Enjoyed our morning cuppa on the balcony watching all the beautiful birds including a peacock! The room was spacious and clean as was the bathroom. Great location for us travelling back to Cairns. Bowen looked like a lovely beach resort town and we would have liked to have had more time there to explore. would highly recommend this hotel.

We have stayed here twice and each time the staff are wonderful, the beds are great, I can sleep anywhere, but we've never had any issues. Pet friendly too as we couldn't get our pooch into a kennel and hes old and happy to just sleep. Thank you so much.

Tidy and well presented rooms with direct access to horseshoe bay beach, a cafe and walking trails. We were able to book a few side by side with a group of friends with a grassed area in front of the rooms for the kids to play.
