Very convenient place to stay as close to airport and to Mackay city centre.
Judith, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Over priced for a standard room

Nice quiet neighbour hood. Pretty clean but not spotless Only two pillows and no spare blanket Fabric headboard which grosses me out Smelt of old man and beer .. luckily I had room spray. Advertised as sea view but looked into the city

I found that the reception is to I met with at the property was very accommodating and explained everything with clear detail it was a pleasure to have stayed
Genette, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great suite of apartments, well appointed even though a bit on the pricier side. There is only one lift and you'll likely have to wait a while because the cleaners use it in the morning. A minor quibble but they did not stock the fridge with milk.

Beautiful rooms. Beautiful bathrooms. Clean. Comfortable big bed. Only stayed one night so didn’t check out the pool ( not sure if there was one) but it was very well priced for a lovely place
Amy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was close to work for me and close to go fishing. Staff were all great! I was missing a frying pan, but when i advised them i got one straight away.
Christopher, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Room was great few stains on carpet and bed. The thing that made it awful was that the room stank of cigarettes and alcohol coming from the other room. it was so bad it burnt my nostrils and I had a horrible sleep. I was very busy while I was in town so didn’t have a chance to talk to staff for a new room or for a refund so I could go somewhere else. It’s like the air is connected somehow cause the bathroom was the worst in the morning and the alcove you walk in first that joined two apartments. Lounge worse at night. I emailed them and let them know but I had to go to my meeting and had to leave town for a 4hour drive home the same day. I never heard back from them.
Jaana, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Complex is nice, staff are lively. My particular room - door needs adjusting so it will close without force, bedhead and carpet need a good shampoo clean, accessory pillows on bed need replacing.
Kirsty, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Not cleaned well and not enough utensils
alan, 5-night trip

2/10 Poor

Totally disappointed....

The curtains had traces of mold. The washing machine was not cleaned, the dryer contained towels left by the cleaning staff. There were cobwebs at the base of the dishwasher in the kitchen area. Pillows in second bedroom had unknown white marks/stains on them. Several surfaces had dirty marks. EG Doors and walls. I used this property several years ago but due to the state of the room, family and I will not be returning. This was reported to reception but have not been contacted by property management and therefore i expect they have little care for their guests.
ColinParawan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Upon arrival the front desk did not tell me any information just gave me the keys and sent me on my way I had to ask about every little detail which should have been provided welcoming me. I had no aircon for four days, when I called up about this issue they were not very accommodating and said they would not know when it will be fixed. Was fixed on last day however, communication was poor and I was not aware till before I checked out.
Dennis, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

4 nights in Mackay for cricket

Apsttment was magnificent. Incredibly comfortable bed and good facilties within. Kitchen, living room and bsthroom all immaculate, honestly accommodation itself second to none. Location not ideal if you dont have a car though due to distance from shops and resturanta in center of Mackay. If you have a car though as i assume most would, recommend staying here
Kyle, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

The mattress was terrible… I feel like folding in half by the mattress and you can clearly see the king bed is formed by two singles and they are not leveled! One side is sinking in the middle, makes it impossible to stand up the next morning. I literally couldn’t feel my back after slept in it… Terrible experience won’t recommend.

Overall nice stay. Location is excellent out of the main city and close to the beaches. Good base for exploring what the area has to offer.

The elevator stopped working and we were in the top story. Dust on the top of doors.
Emma, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Apartment was fine, heavily used though and some things were wornout or broken ( no knob on the ceiling fan switch, one window wouldn't close properly). But the staff were very friendly and the area was very quiet.

Staff were amazing very polite abd professional. Not enough close by eateries or bars.
William, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

Property has potential but it's lack of cleaning and maintenance let's it down. This accommodation seems to be mostly shift workers short term stays with some residential, not for holidays. We tried to modify stay by moving back one day, Pacific Sands said no problem but we had to get Wotif to put it through. Wotif then made a big deal about it and claimed Pacific Sands would not respond so we either lost a nights stay or had to pay a large fee for the change. Upon arrival the reception at Pacific Sands had received nothing from Wotif and happily moved our dates by one day. A big thank you to the reception for doing that. We haven't used Wotif for some time and won't be using them again
