Is car parking available?

How close are the apartments to the village, marina and beach?
We are centrally located on a quiet street – just a short 5 minute walk to Four Mile beach, the marina and to the village which offers an array of restaurants, shopping and entertainment.
We have a small child or baby. What equipment is available?

I saw the swimming pool is heated. Is that correct?
Yes the naturally-shaded pool is heated overnight to around 28 C degrees in the cooler months.
Is WiFi free and is it available throughout the complex?
Free Wi-Fi – High Speed Internet throughout the complex.
Is the bar-b-que available to all?

We are touring down from Cape York – can I park my trailer / caravan somewhere?
Yes, there is an open parking bay available. Please advise us in advance should you be needing it.
Is there a kiddie’s play area?
Yes there is a small play area which offers a few small toys to keep the kiddies occupied for a while. We ask that you do not remove the toys from the area, as they are for all to enjoy.
We have heard so much about the reef and rainforests. Can you offer us advice?
We love offering advice based on guest feedback and our own experience. We have no affiliation to any tour operator and do not charge any additional fee for our service. The cost that the tour operator charges is the same whether you book through us, the information centres or directly with the operator. By booking through us, you would be supporting us locals! We strongly recommend that tours are booked in advance to avoid disappointment.
Do all the apartments have balconies or a patio?
All the apartments have either a balcony or a patio suitable for enjoying an early morning coffee or a sundowner.
What clothing do I need?
Temperatures range from around 20C to 25C in winter and around 25C to 33C in summer. The restaurants are generally very casual, so shorts, sandals, flops, boardies, t-shirts, trainers (if you are planning a walk in the beautiful rainforests) are the order of the day.
Is there an area where I can smoke?
Smoking is not allowed in the apartments and balconies. A smoking area is available downstairs for this purpose.
I have seen on Trip Advisor that there is a fridge for “left-overs”. What is this?
Inevitably, when guests leave there are items of food left over. (Vegemite, oil, margarine, jams, tomato sauce, tea, coffee, sugar, salt & pepper etc.) Instead of throwing these away, we have a fridge downstairs where all the left-overs can be left for future guests to enjoy. “Dry” items such as tissues are also available. You are most welcome to help yourself during your stay.
