Kaban Holidays from AU$1,382

Left watch behind. Contacted immediately to post it across. Very close to everything.

Had a wonderful 10 night stay at Shantara. We loved being so close to Macrossan st and the beach, while the pool was an amazing end to each day. The Hotel was peaceful, beautiful and quiet. As is normal for Far North Queensland, there is not everyday cleaning service but we don’t use that anywhere anyway. Plenty of parking, but if you didn’t bring a car everything is walking distance with shuttle bus options for longer journeys. The only black mark of the stay were our neighbours on the pool deck room who were obviously upset at having a queer couple nearby, so disappointing in 2026 but not the Hotels fault at all.

2bdrm 2bthrm unit we booked had plenty of space and good kitchen and laundry facilities. Room wasn't that clean when we arrived. Beds were uncomfortable in both rooms and furnishings were tired and in need of updating. Shower in second bathroom could not be used as pressure was terrible and water temperature was either searing hot or freezing cold. Reception didn't seem to be staffed much during our stay so thay made it hard to raise concerns. On the whole, good location, the secure underground parking was great and pool was fantastic. Just need to up their cleaning game and update furnishings to make the stay more comfortable
