    This motel is located in East Mackay right across the road from a park and a beach, and a 6-minute drive from the CBD. We stayed in a well-designed spacious room with a comfortable Queen bed, kitchenette, lounge room and modern bathroom. This is a great option for a beachfront stay at Mackay if you have your own wheels.
