Immediately across the road from the beach, and an easy walk to nearby cafes, restaurants, waterpark, the rockpool and ice creamery. One of the most convenient locations on Townsville's Strand.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean however ‘fully renovated was a stretch’. Bathroom was pretty scruffy, old shower head, ceiling was not newly painted, stained, door was old. Entry door had no door handle! If the motel is advertising fully renovated then a little more effort required.
