We love horseshoe bay
Great location being able to walk out of our room straight to the beach was amazing. We were unable to get the wifi to work potentially need a booster when the resort is booked out.

This place is amazing. Great location, beautiful beaches within walking distance and fantastic views from our balcony. The apartment came with everything we needed, comfortable bed, plenty of hot water, couch and flat screen TV. And Bowen is a hidden treasure with beautiful parks and foreshore with amazing sunsets. I hope to return again one day. The lady on reception and the room staff we friendly and most helpful.

Fabulous location. Great view from room. Beach access. Right next to a great cafe. A little dated decor but spacious rooms and I didn't really notice because the view was great. Staff super friendly and some friendly cute wildlife. Value for money. Will definitely be back.
