The world's largest coral reef system, the Great Barrier Reef stretches almost 1500 miles into the Pacific from the tip of Queensland. Designated a Marine Park by the Australian government and a World Heritage Area by UNESCO, the reef is home to an extraordinary abundance of species and habitats. Snorkeling, diving and fishing are rightly popular along the reef, nowhere more so than on the Whitsunday Islands, where the silica sands and aqua waters of the Coral Sea create the perfect beach escape.

My daughter and I were in Mackay for a netball carnival, we stayed one night at the motel. It was tiny but very clean and presentable, the owner was so polite and accommodating. It was close to a variety of restaurants and we walked next door to Hot Wok and the food was amazing, would definitely recommend this motel.

The reception staff were super friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. Tea, coffee, biscuits, shampoo, conditioner and body wash all supplied. Our only issue was we hadn't realised there were upstairs rooms so now have made a mental note to ask for a ground floor room next time to save dragging luggage upstairs.

I struggle to understand the 4.5 rating of this hotel on Tripadvisor. My experience has been quite different. The only pros I can find is that the room is very self sufficient. Small but has nearly everything required for a week stay. There were multiple challenges I had during my stay. I was particularly unhappy with the attitude of the staff and I rate the service as poor. The clock in the room stopped working. We asked for the battery to be replaced but it stopped again the next day. Room makeup forgot body wash. Car park was very full on Fri and Sat nights but when I asked what I can do when I found no parking spot, staff gave me a shrug and said "It's always been like that", implying I need to sort it out myself. Location was probably 3/5 but it was very noisy and there was a road work right in front of the hotel. I'm sure with that money I can find another place with better service.

Coffee House Apartment Motel offers 30 extremely well appointed AAA rated 4 star rooms & apartments for both the weary traveler and the corporate coming to town. The unique Australian feel won't let you down in either comfort or style.
We like that the rooms are spacious, with a small seating area and table and chairs for breakfast. Our room was very clean and the bed comfortable. We stayed on a Sunday night so it was quiet even though it is located right in the city centre. This was our second stay here and we would stay again if we pass through Rocky.
