“In my opinion, this hotel stands out with its Mediterranean-themed rooftop bar, a unique feature in Townsville. Its blend of Shabby Chic and Boho design creates a distinct atmosphere. I think families will appreciate the spacious, self-contained villas, and its central location is a plus for those wanting to explore the city.”
