Independent in Lower Cowley from AU$95

"I liked the privacy. The pool in the middle of the cluster of rooms. Easy access and walking distance to shop and entertainment."

"Loved our 2 weeks at Mission Reef retreat...so close to the amazing beach...our apartment was spacious and very comfortable...Leon and Michelle were perfect hosts...would definitely love to stay again."

"This place is a gem! Perhaps our favorite of 6 places along the Queensland coast. Super-quiet, very modern, like a cabin in the woods, on the beach! Steps from a gorgeous long stretch of beach (no one on it in late July), nice plunge pool, good amenities, although not a full kitchen. (Who knew you could microwave salmon?) There is a cart for luggage, 2 minutes’ walk to the property. So private yet 5 minutes from restaurants. We will be thinking of it months from now. "

"Recommend "

"The staff were friendly and really made the trip. Everywhere was clean and the gardens beautiful. My only issue was the food, looked pretty but I didn't think it compared to the rest of the hotel. Breakfast was good but not such a fan of the dinner menu."

"Absolutely loved the quiet and environment. Perfect getaway place."

"It’s a good place to stay. The staff and the owners are very accommodating people. Actually it’s not my first time to here. I came back."

"Glamping at its finest! Great staff"

"Best hostel I’ve stayed at in Australia! Staff are incredible (especially Sarah). Location is stunning - it’s remote but gorgeous. I would -*highly* recommend a couple of nights here on your East Coast travels and certainly better than staying in Mission Beach which is full of construction. Despite being so remote, the prices at the cafe are very reasonable and the food and drinks are great quality. Spacious rooms, lovely communal areas, good bathrooms. I absolutely loved it here and would definitely return if I found myself in the area again. Wonderful experience and great memories made. I will be shouting about this place forever!! "
