I was located on the ground floor,and parked my car right outside the room👍 It was a very cold night in Mackay,which is rare,and it got cold in my room,and there's no option for turning heat on,you can only control the flow of the air,you cannot adjust the temperature..Also,the free wifi code didnt work,I was either given the wrong number,or it dosnt work at all. But very nice,spacious rooms

Definitely stay again

The room was so clean and pleasant. Simple yet elegant for a family. My kids loved staying there. Having the beach so close made it even better! Food was delicious and loved the singer that was there on the Friday night! He played a few kid friendly songs like the wiggles and baby shark so my kids got to have a dance. It was amazing and we will definitely be staying there from now on when we visit Mackay :)
