Beachfront Studio Apartment - 1 bedroom

JesseRating, 5 stars10 months ago

As soon as i had my booking confirmed, Carol was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Extremely friendly, helpful and responded almost immediately, regardless of the question. She went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed. Wish I was staying for pleasure, instead of work, would have loved to enjoy some quiet time on the front patio, taking in the views. But was fantastic to sleep with the window open after a long day at work, falling asleep to the sounds of the waves and fresh sea air Would definitely stay here again if I had the chance. Thanks again for your hospitality Carol.

Thanks so much for the stay we loved it. It was a home away from home. Very relaxing and so close to the beach. The unit was like brand new inside and had every amenity we could have asked for. The host had great communication making it easy for us to check in and check out. We will definitely be back this was our first time in Mackay and we loved it, hopefully next time we will stay for longer to be able to enjoy the peaceful location and wonderful unit.
