Top Southern Great Barrier Reef Hotel Reviews
1770 Lagoons Central Apartment Resort
10/10 Excellent
"The room was spacious, the king bed comfortable with good pillows. The bathroom was large with ample hot water & larger shower cubicle. There was ample room for luggage & the spa on the outside verandsh discreet & quiet. We had our own courtyard which was good as we left the curtains open all night. We didnt go into the pools (lagoons) as we had a wedding to go to, but with a group of friends, you would have a great time not even leaving the premises. We will be back!"
Empire Apartment Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Nice room, clean room, friendly staff, good location"
Rockhampton Riverside Central Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Great availability for parking and good location for travelling through Rocky."
Discovery Parks - Rockhampton
10/10 Excellent
"The cabins are fantastic. Definitely enjoyed my stay and the atmosphere. Parking was right next to my cabin and the whole living area is gated so there’s minimal to no worries about theft. Laundry services are reasonably priced and there’s plenty to do on the property itself. Activities in town are a close walk and also a close drive."
Heron Island Resort
8/10 Good
"Heron Island is amazing destination but the property is starting to look tired. It is very expensive to eat, 1 restaurant (breakfast, lunch&dinner)& 1 bar, opens at 10am with limited food if fridge works!!. Same breakfast everyday is $35pp. Cafe style coffee for 2 $15, didn't have lunch. Dinner for 2 with 2 drinks and 1 dessert around $100. Diving and snorkelling was great. 1 dive $150pp & $50 for snorkelling from a boat. Free at high tide unless you hire snorkelling equipment. Dive & snorkelling shop is very well organised and equipped. The corals are slowly recovering from bleaching event in 2024 but sealife is outstanding. Staff are very helpful and friendly."
Burnett Riverside Hotel
8/10 Good
"Plenty of space in the family room. Beds comfortable. Lift a bonus. Only problem was the poor lighting in the room being so dim that it caused headaches. One tiny small glass door to the outside and low yellow light bulb in main area was cave like. Charged for item from fridge that we did not have."
Harbour Sails Motor Inn
8/10 Good
"Large room and comfortable bed. Very central and close to pubs. There’s a nice walk by the river and harbour close by."
