About this property
On The Water Strand u28
This gorgeous apartment suits both those seeking a relaxing ocean-side getaway or the busy executive who appreciates the close proximity to the city, but the evening delights of being on the waterfront. Your apartment is totally renovated and situated on the top floor, with the building itself directly opposite the beachfront. Enjoy water views directly from your apartment balcony.
The Strand Hotel Apartment complex is bang in the middle of the waterfront Strand, allowing for a morning or evening stroll along the beach, or a longer walk to to Kissing Point enjoying world class views to Magnetic Island along the way. Or, you can enjoy a meal at the Seaview Hotel while taking in the endless water views also accessible right from your apartment balcony. No matter what you decide, you simply need to step out of your apartment and you come to some of Townsville’s best cafés and restaurants. Step across and you are on the beach with Magnetic Island as the backdrop. Stroll around the Strand and walk all the way to Pallarenda Beach at one end and the Marina at the other. It won’t matter where you decide to go you are amid the action with the best bars, restaurants, café’s, specialty shops and a Coles supermarket and shopping centre, all just a couple of minutes away. Also nearby are the Rock Pool, Army Museum, Magnetic Island Ferry Terminal, Casino and the Entertainment Centre.
For your convenience, The Coffee Club is situated on ground level of the apartment complex overlooking the water. There is also allocated underground secure parking. A lift services parking basement to foyer and all floors.

Reviewer Comments:
You can’t beat this location, and the apartment has been beautifully renovated. Step out the door onto the strand, or sit up on the balcony and enjoy the view out across to magnetic island. Brandi and her team were so helpful. I am in a wheelchair and managed the accommodation accessibility fairly easily. Would definitely recommend!
