Top Southern Great Barrier Reef Hotel Reviews
Bayview Tower
10/10 Excellent
"Breakfast was great so was the room has a amazing view also"
Discovery Parks - Rockhampton
10/10 Excellent
"The cabins are fantastic. Definitely enjoyed my stay and the atmosphere. Parking was right next to my cabin and the whole living area is gated so there’s minimal to no worries about theft. Laundry services are reasonably priced and there’s plenty to do on the property itself. Activities in town are a close walk and also a close drive."
Heron Island Resort
8/10 Good
"Heron Island is amazing destination but the property is starting to look tired. It is very expensive to eat, 1 restaurant (breakfast, lunch&dinner)& 1 bar, opens at 10am with limited food if fridge works!!. Same breakfast everyday is $35pp. Cafe style coffee for 2 $15, didn't have lunch. Dinner for 2 with 2 drinks and 1 dessert around $100. Diving and snorkelling was great. 1 dive $150pp & $50 for snorkelling from a boat. Free at high tide unless you hire snorkelling equipment. Dive & snorkelling shop is very well organised and equipped. The corals are slowly recovering from bleaching event in 2024 but sealife is outstanding. Staff are very helpful and friendly."
Burnett Riverside Hotel
8/10 Good
"Plenty of space in the family room. Beds comfortable. Lift a bonus. Only problem was the poor lighting in the room being so dim that it caused headaches. One tiny small glass door to the outside and low yellow light bulb in main area was cave like. Charged for item from fridge that we did not have."
Harbour Sails Motor Inn
8/10 Good
"Large room and comfortable bed. Very central and close to pubs. There’s a nice walk by the river and harbour close by."
Rockhampton Riverside Central Hotel
8/10 Good
"All rooms upstairs-no lifts. Parking very tight and limited. Bed very soft so not great if you have any back issues. Staff were exceptional and location quite central with restaurants nearby."

"Friendly staff, clean, nice undercover parking and big room, the only small issue was toilet seat need to be repaired, but wasn’t big deal. Overall was awesome definitely good place to stay. Highly recommended."
