"The motel is a little older, but the rooms were spotless and very well presented. It’s in a good location, with the convenience of parking right outside your unit. The staff were absolutely awesome — friendly, welcoming, and went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. The room had all the basics, and the breakfast was simple but hit the spot. It’s a very affordable place to stay, offering great value for money. We’ll definitely be staying here again!"

Top South Mackay Hotel Reviews

White Lace Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and tidy. Check in process was good. Continental breakfast was easy. The mattresses were a bit uncomfortable but other than that, everything was seamless"

Coral Cay Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I stay here often as Coral Cay is my hotel of choice when I travel, because they never falter when it comes to their beautiful well presented rooms and facilities. We had a hiccup with our room and straight away they put us in another room, no questions asked. So based on emergencies the communication was fast and friendly. The staff are always professional and very jolly 😊 10 star service **********"
