Hotels near Palm Bay Beach

"The view was wonderful and the staff were helpful and friendly. We didn’t use the kitchen much but it was well stocked with essentials for meals, if you choose to eat in. The apartment was a good size but we found the furnishings to be very uncomfortable. Both hubby and I struggled to sleep well, the bed was far too firm for our liking. The sofa mattresses were no more comfortable. This is a good facility if you like very firm sleeping and for a family environment. The pool and hot tub were lovely but constantly overrun with children jumping from the rocks, which made it impossible to enjoy. I do not recommend this location for a couples holiday… we planned our trip specifically to avoid the school break atmosphere, as we longed for relaxation. This was not the place for that. We spent most of our time on Catseye Beach and down at the marina, as the pool just wasn’t an option. Highly recommend the Beach Club for an exquisite dinner and Manta Ray for fantastic marina lunch."

"Breakfast was mediocre considering the price adder. Had to find utensils and napkins and lucky to have a salt and pepper shaker. Food presentation was sloppy. "

"Great location and Edge pool is fantastic. Property could use a deep clean but tidy enough. Overall enjoyed and would stay again. "

"Food was great could do with the ability to rent a small boat to see more around the island. Unfortunately for us had a super soft bed. A shame properties don’t tell you the types of beds they have. "

"Not a lot of help!!!! I left a few items behind in the room set message no reply.. No long mirror in the room no fly screens which you couldn't open the door . Would we stay again no"

"The buffet was amazing with all the variety of dishes. The bungalow was spacious and in a great location however we were awoken numerous times at night by some Bush Stone-curlews screaming! I was not familiar with these birds that sound like a woman screaming until I heard them. Outside our bungalow we had a nice view of some wallabies and birds. I can’t wait to return to Hamilton Island however I would plan to stay in the Reef hotel where hopefully it would be a bit quieter from the screaming birds:)"

"Firstly if you just come here for the views then it would be worth it. Reading or relaxing by the pool with the most speciality views of the coast is unlike anywhere else, unspoiled by crowds or boats. As there’s only a maximum of 20 guests plus 4-5 staff the whole resort feels like a private getaway rather than a resort and often we were the only ones in the pool. The food was great for all the meals and we definitely didn’t go hungry. The morning and afternoon yoga is great and there is a hiking trail up to a lookout however we encountered lots spiders and biting insects so be wary (in the rooms and by the pool this wasn’t an issue). Overall this feels like a great way to relax, connect with the surrounding nature and admire the beauty of the area. "

"Room is clean, owner Brain is very nice and helpful. If you drive there , is very beautiful place to stay for a family. At the top of mountain range, 2 kms to the Harbour there is a cafe Bristol at Ferry terminal. Beautiful ocean view from balcony for every room. Recommend "

"Fantastic all around. "
