The Sails-PanoramicViews/AnzacMemorial@sublimetsv

IbbyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our stay at Louise’s apartment on The Strand was absolutely flawless. The highlight was without a doubt the panoramic beach view from the balcony — it was simply breathtaking and the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee or unwind in the evening. Photos don’t do it justice! The apartment itself was beautifully styled, spotlessly clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The location couldn’t be better — right on The Strand and walking distance to cafes, restaurants, and the beach. Louise was a wonderful host — friendly, professional, and super responsive, making everything easy from check-in to check-out. Thank you so much, Louise, for sharing your stunning space. This was one of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve ever had. 10/10 — highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!

Perched by Strand Pier/BeachTownsville @sublimetsv

TarynRating, 5 stars3 days ago
We absolutely loved our stay at Perched by the Pier. The unit is very large, clean and homely. We had two small kids with us, the unit has all the necessities for the kids without it feeling like the unit is designed specifically for families with children. It could also be the perfect spot for couples. The kitchen was very well stocked, with every appliance you could need. The view of the water was very lovely, and the location was within walking distance of everything Townsville has to offer. If we ever head back to Townsville we would definitely re book perched by the pier.

Lakeside - spacious/pool/close to V8s,City,Strand

KarenRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We would totally recommend this property, lovely vibes as soon as you walk into the spacious living, kitchen area. We loved the kitchen, plenty of room for a couple of cooks. The 3 bathrooms worked a treat, the main ensuite is amazing. We made good use of the lovely shaded pool, perfect for the Townsville summer. We have had a perfect relaxing break, the house was very easy to keep clean and tidy, we will definitely stay again on our next break up North.

Baraa and his partner were wonderful hosts. They welcomed us in to their home and made us feel comfortable from the start. Their children were respectful, well behaved and entertaining throughout our stay. I would highly recommend Baraa’s home for anyone looking for a room in the area.

Lotus House

Staying at the Lotus House was a complete indulgence. We loved it. Despite the rain we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves chilling out on the verandah and wandering down both to the pool and the ocean for a swim. It was an incredibly relaxing holiday. We definietly hope to stay again.
