"Staff friendly upon arrival :) They were very happy to keep my luggage to the side when I arrived early until I was ready to check in. Rooms were very decently sized, and you get an awesome view from the balcony! Definitely would stay again"

"Palm Bay was a beautiful location to spend our honeymoon. Staff were very friendly, so many national park trails to walk, plenty of places to snorkel and high quality food from the restaurant. We loved going out on the supplied paddle boards to check out coral or watch the sunset. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a nice place to relax and be in nature!"

"Exactly as shown in the pictures, great large space, fantastic amenities, super comfortable bed. Short walk to everything. Be aware reception only 9-5, but after hours arrival was easy. Only lost a star as it did need a good clean in the bathroom,"

"This resort is brilliant for relaxing. Only 20 adults on site at any time, which provides a great ambience and chilled vibe. The transfers are magical - we chose the helicopter in, and the boat out. The food was terrific and the accommodation very good with great views.
The resort is highly recommended!"

I was advised that there is a complimentary shuttle bus and can be adjust if any of us need the bus earlier than 11am but didn’t mention that there is a strict 11am starting route .
That’s why I booked with Freedom Shores even they are quite far from the center (15-20 mins driving )but if I had to choose again the distance will put me off rebooking with them.
Otherwise all the rest was excellent.

Excellent first impression very pleasant and accommodating staff went out of their way to please. Rooms well appointed and clean. Despite the devastation in the area due to cyclone 'Debbie' the hotel was coping with repairs but always keeping focus on customer service. Due to the short stay we were unable to fulfil some of the prearranged excursions and the lagoon nearby was closed due to the cyclone which would have been good for my grandson but would not hesitate in recommending Coral Sea...

Clean, spacious and love the tranquility of the surroundings and the accommodation.
We wish the new owners Liz and her husband (sorry forgot his name) all the best and we will see you again at some point

Absolutely stunning property and we had a fabulous time. Only issue was the smell of seafood from our fridge which we raised with reception and advised they would contact housekeeping. Was still there and complained again and advised housekeeping had cleaned it. Asked if they could clean with bicarbonate soda or move rooms, and they left a bowl of vinegar in fridge instead. Helped to disguise smell which was bearable. No other issues, and 2 changes of towels during our stay

The room was massive, the view spectacular and the kitchen modern. Everything was clean and felt hygienic. It was good that we had use of at least 3-4 different pools on the island all within a 2 minute walk. There is so much to do on the island and surrounds, everywhere is walkable or you can use the free buses that run or hire a golf buggy. Overall it surpassed our expectations on all levels. Would 100% recommend these apartments and the island.

The hotel is in a lovely setting with a nice pool in the centre of the complex. The greeting on arrival was very good - we got shown to our room. Each room has a parking space and ours was directly outside the front door. The living room was huge with a separate dining area and kitchen. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds comfortable
