Our stay at this property was more than dissapointing. We made a reservation for a two bedroom apartment for our honeymoon. On arrival we were checked into a two bedroom spa room which was horrendous. We entered the room and were immediately confronted with mouldy walls, extremely worn and dated furniture and an 80's style spa plonked in the corner... More

Sad, we could only stay one night, will return later in the year, very relaxing place to stay, beds were very comfortable and views from the balcony were to die for.

This was our 8th Hotel during our east coast trip from Sydney to Cairns and again another fantastic choice. We stayed for 1 night here in one of the ground floor rooms with a view straight out on to the front lawns and the beach just as it shows in the pictures. We knew before we arrived here that we...

My wife and I had a truly wonderful stay at Casteways. The location is spectacular, you can walk from your room through the gardens straight onto the beach. The sun rises in the morning through the palm trees and gently wakes you and evenings sat by the pool or in the gardens are truly relaxing. Mission Beach is a fairly... More

My husband and I spent one night in this beautiful hotel and really enjoyed our experience. The staff were all extremely friendly. Our room was quite large with two double beds and we had a fantastic view out to sea. There was no sign the place had been ravaged by a cyclone only a year ago apart from the fact... More

My partner and I were looking for somewhere to have a 3 night 'Mini-Break' and we are both very happy that we ended up choosing Castaways. The hotel was just gorgeous and the view from our room was divine. We ate about half of our meals at the hotel and were very impressed with both the variety and calibre of... More

Only stayed one night but will return for a longer stay with my wife. Reception staff were courteous and my room was clean and presentable. We were welcomed by the restaurant & bar staff. All staff were delightful and a pleasure to engage. The menu was a challenge in that there were so many appealing options. My colleagues and I... More

On check in, we were given our room keycard by what seemed to be a nervous receptionist. On arriving in our room, we noticed there was no spa, just a shower. we had paid for the 2 bedroom apartment with a spa. I went backed to reception, and was then told....oh we double booked your room, and we are sorry... More

I am very saddened to read this review even more saddened that you were not able to enjoy your time with our many other satisfied guests this Easter long weekend. As you know the weather was simply perfect and Mission Beach was buzzing. We have received rave after rave via our guests comments cards so it is very disappointing to... More

Visited Castaways in December 2011 with a group of 10. The way this resort has picked itself up and dusted itself off after Cyclone Yasi is a credit to management and staff. Staff at reception were very professional, friendly and courteous. Bar and Restaurant have come up a treat after Yasi but the downside is the rooms themselves are looking... More
