Great spot for a stay.
Pros:

Great room.
Everything you need.
Handy pool.
Friendly staff and fantastic pub attached. Needless to say the ocean views from the pub are beautiful.

Cons:

Be good if there was a full set of plates n bowls.
Be nice to be able to host a meal while visiting.
Also the Bbq could use an upgrade...

Noisey mornings
Pros:

The reception staff were lovely and accomodating. The restaurant was fantastic.

Cons:

Unfortunately we weren't made aware renovations were taking place at time of booking. The noise throughout the mornings weren't pleasant. We were lucky to get the first renovated room but the air-conditioning units kept tripping after 1 hour of use. The TV wasn't usable to steam apps but normal TV was available.

Not worth the money, won’t be staying there again
Pros:

The location and food at pub seafood was so fresh

Cons:

The cleanliness of the room was so bad. Dust everywhere I wiped my finger, it was full of dust..
I opened the air con and it was thick with dust again when I ran my finger over it you could see the dust roll up.
They are doing renovations at the present so had to look at trusses and frames all across the back patio grass where our dog was supposed to play.

Pet friendly proper apartment for beachside living
Pros:

This was a proper apartment with separate bedroom, cooking facilities and full laundry, located next to the beach and behind a very nice hotel. Rooms were great size and to be able to bring our dog was fantastic. The staff are amazing assets, especially the reservations manageress A. Just an amazing stay out of mackay to enjoy the literal sea breeze.

Cons:

The hotel is upgrading its wifi so service was a bit patchy but the staff worked very hard to assist and mobile hot spot solves all.

Pros:

The unit was roomy and had all appliances, including hotplates and washer/dryer. Very little noise heard from other units or the adjoining hotel.

Cons:

The room felt in need of upgrade, which they appear to be doing with other units. The crockery was a bit haphazard...only one mug (plenty of cups), and one teaspoon.

Pros:

Clean tidy and spacious older building
Travelling with my pooch it was great to have a ground floor apartment with patio and some garden at the back
Situated behind Seabreeze Hotel and you can purchase takeaway lunch or dinner which was fantastic and just across the road from the bay

Nothing to dislike
