Top Shelly Beach Hotel Reviews

Picnic Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"These are newly renovated units that are very modern and functional. The decor is great and the size is adequate. The free breakfast offered is so amazingly tasty and large in portion generously. The shuttle service is included which is so prompt and efficient from and to the ferry terminal. The staff are very accommodating, friendly and pleasant. We highly recommend this hotel which is 5 mins from the terminal. The location is quiet and restaurant is next door to the hotel. There are a few other restaurants very close to the hotel on the esplanade. Overall, it’s a 5 star with great amenities and service."

Shoredrive Motel

8/10 Good

"Great location. Easy to get to. Had little reception on way to Townsville when they called. Found out that if I didn’t answer that call, they would have given my room away. So be careful. More than 💩 would have hit the fan... travelling 5 hrs, family of 4. Customer service in that area definitely needs work. Everything was clean, smells nice, but the extra non-paying visitor, cockroach, we could have done without. Its an older place, but if it's just to sleep, it's perfect."

QCWA Kissing Point Units

10/10 Excellent

"Spotlessly clean and the most magnificent location. Undercover parking allocated to each room."

Seahaven Resort

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and very well presented upon arrival. Pool was fantastic size and conveniently located near room. There was also a small playground on site which was great for the kids. We had daily housekeeping but they only changed the towels beds weren’t made and floor wasn’t cleaned and the restaurant was undergoing renovations so we weren’t able to use it."
