"Super friendly owners made sure our stay was enjoyable. The position of Waters Edge is very convenient with pubs and coffee shops all within a couple of minutes walk. Lock-up, undercover parking is a big bonus."
"Absolutely fantastic hotel with lovely staff. We stayed in a newly renovated room that was very modern and the the softest mattresses I have ever slept on at a hotel. Must stay if you are stopping through Townsville"

"Three generations, roomy, comfy three-bedroom apartment with big covered porch with view of Horseshoe Bay just over the road. We loved the area - long and beautiful beach netted for swimming, good restaurants, great hikes, friendly people. Would have appreciated a coffee maker and a can opener. But a memorable time for all, 7 to 78!"
