The room was gorgeous. The owners are very friendly and supportive. The view from our room was magnificent. we will return in the future. The 3 dogs are a plus, if you are a doggy lover.

Stefan Germany

The hotel is located on the beach front and is very quiet. There are walkways along the foreshore and the owners are really friendly and engaging.

Graham Australia

It was functional, clean and had a beautiful outlook. The hosts were super lovely and helpful.

Elaura Australia

Big comfortable studio apartment with a spectacular view to Hinchinbrook Island from the balcony. Everything was very clean. Great shower.

Jo-anne Australia

Awesome host, Steve was very happy to take us to visit Jessie’s Pie for our impromptu request while picking us up at Cardwell station. Janet asked us having any requires regularly to make sure we were comfortable. Great location on beach, we enjoyed sitting at balcony watching ocean view and chatting with people.

William Taiwan

The owner was very friendly and helpful, and the location (right on the beach) was magical. He told us about a nearby restaurant which we found out had great food - went there on 2 nights..

Malcolm Australia

Excellent customer service, clean, and amazing location

Archie Australia

The location was perfect, only a 10-minute drive to Cardwell Spa Pools and Attie Creek. Restaurants and cafes are only a short walk along the beach. Steve and Janet were very nice and helpful. Highly recommended!

Ciemon Australia

We stayed for two nights in the room that had a balcony directly facing the beach overlooking Hinchinbrook Island. There is only one room with this feature. The room itself was spacious, comfortable and clean. There was both onsite and street parking available. The property is located only a few steps from the beach and the beach walkway along Hinchinbrook Channel leading to the main street for shops and eateries. The property manager was very welcoming and helpful. I would not hesitate staying there again.

Margaret Australia

Location, friendly welcome, comfortable, quiet room.

  • I we book a standard queen room for 3 days do we have a patio with an ocean view thank you
    Standard queen rooms all open onto a common verandah, which runs side on to the beach. The 2 queen rooms at the beach end are tagged 'Oceanview Queen Rooms' and are $10 dearer. The ocean-view apartment has its own private patio and faces the beach.
