Great location and amenities
The unit was spacious, clean and well equipped - I was especially impressed with provision, not only of coffee machine, but of enough capsules to last the two of us for 10 days. Also great central location on The Strand. Finally, host Andy communicated with us in a timely and helpful manner from start to finish.
Overall, a great stay. Thanks Andy.

Great little unit, great location!
Unit is in an older complex but is well maintained and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Kids loved the toy chest! Host communications are spot on and timely, which is much appreciated. You really can't beat the location if you have kids who want to go to the waterpark!

Townsville catch up
This apartment was perfect for us. Looking at the beach and waterpark from our balcony was amazing.
It was so close to shops, attractions and restaurants.
Everything in the apartment worked, but it could do with an update
The property was in a good location, beds very comfortable and easy access to walking pathways. We enjoyed staying at this property and would return.

The location was super and easy walking distance to everything
The apartment was great although the floors weren’t very clean - found shards of glass near the table - two bedroom were great although we had to sleep one person on the sofa in the living room which was okay except there was no curtains on the windows which meant that person was woken up every morning when the Sun came up

Exactly as described and more! All we needed was our clothes and breakfast food. Unit is on The Strand so is within walking distance of restaurants and our favourite, Juliette’s (gelato). Hoping to rebook for next year. Thanks Andy and Fran.
