Time to unwind

The location of the apartment was ideal with a great view across The Strand to Magnetic Island and access to lots of local attractions, including shops, restaurants, parks and the beach. We were pleasantly surprised with the additional small touches on our arrival - fresh fruit, chocolates, milk and tea/coffee. Our hosts were very quick to respond when the kettle died and immediately organised a replacement. Overall a very comfortable and well serviced apartment.

Stayed the week with my wife & mother aged 93. We all had a wonderful trouble free experience.

Apartment location was perfect, straight across from the beach. The room was everything we needed, great for a couple. We hired a car which made it really easy to get around and explore the island and we had free undercover parking provided with the room. The view from our room was divine and Liz the lady who helps manage the room was really friendly and helpful. Overall great stay!

Great place to stay. So cute and cosy! Bus stop right out the front!

The self contained unit was well present and very clean. Set with all the necessities to make our stay easy and relaxing. Communication with manager Monica was clear and direct. She was knowledgeable about the island and happy to share. The accommodation is on a bus route and close to the local shops. The pool was a particular treat. Surrounded with lush greenery, shady for almost the whole day and temperature was pleasantly cool. Absolutely would recommend!

My partner, dog, and I were in desperate need of dog friendly accommodation in Townsville as we had just moved here. Unluckily for us it happened to be a big weekend in Townsville with a V8 race on and Bill and Carolyn were our last hope. The house is small, but perfect for a couple. It's well located being only a few minutes into town. Is it the nicest and most modern house? No, and the pictures don't lie and the hosts don't mix any words. But the house, like the owners, were upfront and honest. It's stocked with everything you'll need, the wifi is indeed fast, the place and furnishing were clean, what more could you ask for? We were very happy with our stay and it got us out of a real bind. The place has its own charm. Couldn't be happier.
