Comfortable apartment with lovely view.
Pros:

A very nice self contained apartment - spacious, comfortable, secure and quiet. A lovely view of The Strand, beach and Magnetic Island. Close to eateries.

Cons:

Replacement of curtains would be beneficial as the current ones look stained, however the rest of the apartment was very clean.

Lovely apartments in a prime Townsville location.
Pros:

Mariners North is a great place to stay when visiting Townsville. Lovely clean, comfortable and well-equipped apartments with outstanding views of Magnetic Island, Strand beach and Castle Rock. The swimming pool and BBQ area are very nice. The location is excellent and within walking distance to cafes and shops. Very helpful and welcoming management.

Cons:

Something to be aware of - some apartments only have stair access. Check when you are booking if this could be an issue for you.
