Booked the Family Apartment on the "Off Season" at $169 p/n for 3 night stay for doctor visit in Mackay. Very impressed on arrival. Family Self Contained are set in a block seperate from the motel accomodation and behind the pool, well off Nebo Road. We were upstairs.
Self Contained are motel style with the bathroom seperating the 2 rooms.
The room has:
* an adequate fridge, although it was semi full of mini bar stuff.
* 2 stove hotplates on the benchtop and a microwave.
* a good size balcony overlooking small grassed area and lovely pool, although it also faces the bar and restaurant (you can see them and they can see you) with a 6 seater outdoor setting.
* good sized bathroom with shower over bath. They also have bathroom dispensers of Shampoo, conditioner, shaving cream, hand soap and moisturiser.
*Flat screen TV's in both "rooms" with limited Austar although the tv channels are not listed anywhere.
A big bonus of staying here is the daily servicing of the rooms.
A laundry is located on site at $4 per load.
The Motel bird, a cockatiel called Sunny, was a big hit with my 5yr and 3yr old.
Being the off season the restaraunt was closed but there was a lot of options all within walking distance including Pizza Hut, Subway, Thai and fish and chips at the 4 Ways. The resort recommended the Shamrock Hotel over the road with $8 buffet style meals.
Also handy was the 2 petrol stations for milk, bread etc.
Not being big fans of hotels on Nebo Road, we were very impressed with this one (tripadvisor again helping us to make a good find).
We will stay here again.
