1770 Getaway

Fantastic, will stay again!

Reviewed By LisaofAus1985

Everything we hoped it would be and more. All the extra details such as being walked to our villa, provided a map & talked through the highlights, fresh milk in the fridge, quality soaps & eco friendly items throughout. The villas are secluded and the cafe on site is wonderful with lovely staff and amazing homemade cakes & meals. The villa is immaculate, the gardens make you feel like you are in another country. We can’t wait to come back in summer to enjoy the pool. Thanks for a perfect few days.

Rocky Glen Hotel Motel

The spare rib meal was 5 star

Reviewed By jandmedwards

We visited RGs because we had heard their evening meal specials were awesome - we were not disappointed !!! The spare ribs we had were the best rib meal we had eaten since our trip to Canada. Keep up the good work guys, we are looking forward to another meal when we go back on our next trip to Gladstone.

Peaceful relaxing stay with stunning views

Reviewed By KMP151515

A beautifully located small motel with only 4 rooms. Very helpful and friendly service, immaculate gardens, and stunning view. Be aware that due to location TV reception can be intermittent Our suite had a main room with large queen bed and a second room with two singles. It was peaceful and quiet but only a short drive to local restaurants

The Zen Den

Disappointing Reservation Techniques

Reviewed By JackieA1313

Sadly I booked The Zen Den for 3 nights accommodation prior to the last Brisbane Lockdown. Naturally I had to cancel the booking, (and giving enough time as per their instructions on bookings) used the Zen Den accommodation website. My request to cancel went unnoticed, twice. But the money for the coomodation was still taken out of my bank. WORDs of advice.....phone the reservatiuon desk for any changes as attention to detail is not a priority with this accommodation. The money was taken out of my bank for non attendence from my Australian account but the reason given for this was that as I was living in Thailand they couldn't contact me to address my cancellation email...... So again I say...Their attention to detail is sorley lacking. So be warned.

Alexandra Lodge

Private Appartments

Reviewed By Ken G

This is a building in need of some TLC. Cladding falling off the walls, filthy window casements, badly in need of interior decoration and carpeting. There are something like twenty five flats here in what before conversion, must have been a splendid residence. The small amount of grounds are now well kept with groundsmen that seem to know what they are doing and the grounds are starting to look cared for. Having lived here for eighteen months I had expected to see some improvement but not so This is a private housing complex that I have been trying for over a year to get google maps to recognise, to no avail. THIS IS NOT MANOR COURT.
