Room was clean and had a good bed. Struggled to locate the motel when we first arrived as it was dark but figured it out eventually. We checked in as a late arrival, unfortunately this meant we couldn’t arrange for a hob for dinner. Job was available from reception but not when we arrived, would have been good to have this in the room with some more utensils/equipment. For a short stay this would be ok, kitchen facilities might be a struggle for extended stays.

Ideal location for feeding Dolphins

We booked an Accessible room for one night on our week long road trip from Brisbane to Airlie Beach. The room was exactly what we expected and ideal for one night, which enabled us to explore the sleepy towns of Rainbow Beach and Tin Can Bay. The highlight of our trip was feeding the Dolphins in Tin Can Bay.
