Tin Can Bay Tourist Park

10/10 Excellent

"After a very long day, Tin Can Bay Tourist Park was the perfect place to stop. Check in was easy - there was a chance I'd arrive late, and it was no problem to work around this when I spoke to the team over the phone. The cabin was very clean and welcoming, with a large parking space and porch with a lovely outlook over to the trees. Everything I needed was included in the cabin, with a comfortable bed that I sank into and fell asleep right away. Bonus to have a pizza van on site, so I didn't have to think about cooking. Short walk down to the bay, with some gorgeous walking paths and board walks."

Sleepy Lagoon Motel

8/10 Good

"Nice tidy unit, pub next door good for a meal"

Dolphin Waters Tin Can Bay

8/10 Good

"Nice views and comfortable. Would have been nice if pool was heated"

K'gari Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"The accommodation is conveniently located on the eastern side of the island which makes it easy to take in the sites. The apartment we had was clean and comfortable, although there was an issue with the hot water that we were not warned about. This translated to cold showers in winter for the first 24 hours of our stay. The restaurant was also being renovated when we stayed, but staff did their best to ensure reasonable meals. The pool tables gave us some night-time entertainment that was appreciated, although this area had a very ‘school-camp’ vibe. The pool was too cold to use when we stayed. Staff were friendly."

Arkana Motel Maryborough, SureStay Collection by BW

"Great little place."
