    We loved the amazing position, right on the beach and very private. We felt like we were in the wilderness. Beautiful room and great facilities. Large and well appointed.

    Signage not the best to find it from the main road and within the property to know where you are not allowed to drive.. Require luggage assistance distance from car location to bungalow if you have abit to off load..

    Amazing location and facilities, has everything you need! The views! The cassowary experiences. Loved it! Look forward coming back soon!

    A bit of a disappointment was that the pool was way too cold for this time of the year. Hot water supply is not constant and the bathroom did not have a great ventilation (condensation).

    Ir is really a very nice and remote property literally on the beach. The bungalow is rather spacious, nicely decorated, comfy and really private.

    I would probably return next year in October (not August) when the weather is warmer.

    We stayed in bungalow 1 in August. It is located right on the on the most beautiful beach where we could walk out at any time. Very private front yard with a glorious plunge pool. The bungalows 1 is located next to an estuary which was a georgois view. Apparently a crocodile may live there but we never saw it. Driving around the area we had two separate sightings os Cassuwaries with their babies.... just glorious! Ate dinner at The Garage and had the yummiest mushroom pizza ever! Woke up to a beautiful ocean view through the large glass doors in the morning to heavy rain but beautiful to sit and watch it from the large balcony deck under verandah and ate complimentary toast, muesli and coffee. Left to get our voucher provided for free coffees and cocktails at the Elmandra resort. Geougous. The bungalow was just perfect. Mission beach proper was also georgous with the famous palm trees and board walk. Cannot wait to return and stay longer as one night was not enough!

    Accom details should be clearer about the puacity of cooking supplies, the requirements to park some distance from the accomodation and carry everything from the carpark to your room and that the plunge pool will be unusable in winter months (their peak season!, it's NQ) as it is too cold. In a location with an average of 230 25c days, it could be easily be solar heated. The pool pump ran all night and in such a quiet location this was very intrusive. Its more isolated than it looks on the map as South Mission doesn't have many facilities. Minimal cooking facilities, there was a tiny microwave, a weber q outside in a very odd location which made it hard to use for a shorter person like me. No cooking utensils to speak of- an egg poacher, a plastic egg flip and tongs. Not even a decent knife and all the cutlery was stored in a plastic container on a shelf under the microwave. The listing does say they onlysupply a bar fridge, it was teeny so self catering is not an option. There were Woolworths brand oil and salt and pepper supplied, 4 coffee capsules and some tea bags. This property is close to a major Australian pepper producer so missed an opportunity to showcase another local business. You will need a vehicle to get to any facilities other than the beach. Overall it was nice but we have stayed in similar properties in Mission Beach area for much less and enjoyed it just as much if not more.

    Beautiful location by the beach. Spotlessly clean and well presented. Basic breakfast supplies included. Beautiful walk up the beach.

    it was impossible to find. The address in big letters is a big dump. I called the phone number given and no one knew anything. We headed back to leave and saw a little sign on a gravel road meters inside the rainforest. We were very lucky to see it. Then driving down the gravel road we were lucky to come across two people leaving. They worked for the Bidarra resort. They were enormous help. I could not walk the 150 steps to the cabin. They showed us how we could get there by car.

    You have to give more detail how to find it and warn people with disabilities that it is a walk to the cabin. With all that I changed a reservation to go back this week. I loved it. If the weather was good it would be perfect.
