Agnes Water is stunning. The location of the accommodation was perfect, and it was like a paradise between trees. With a lonely Kangaroo always around. The beach is in front of you. Water stunningly clear and warm. What a place. The accommodation was so comfortable with efficient space for 4 people sharing. Loved it

We love Rockhampton and have been many times before.

We love Rockhampton and have been many times before. It has one of the Best Gluten Free Bakeries we have been to. Called Artizan Gluten Free Bakery, we made sure to get there before it closed on the Saturday as it is closed on Sundays.

Gladstone has so many beautiful parks walks and water fronts to spend your time in. A large variety of restaurants and plenty of shops and things to do. The nightlife also doesn’t disappoint, there are quite a few venues to choose from to go for a dance, an evening meal or to sit for a few drinks with live music. The locals were all very polite and friendly and helpful, it’s a very family friendly city and we think has a lot to offer.

It’d be great if there was a better way to get there by motor vehicle, than having to battle your way on that Freeway from Brisbane, I was stuck on it 3 times in this last week firstly going into & out of Brisbane on family business, then on departure from Bundy to drive home to Newcastle in NSW I believe it added up to two hours to each trip I made on it, where are all these motor vehicles travelling to? for someone like myself that regularly uses the Freeway from Newcastle to Sydney plus associated Toll roads in and around Sydney that’s saying something, don’t get me wrong your roads are great but wooohee that slowly moving traffic, it’s a shocker.

Yepoon is a lovely coastal town.

Yepoon is a lovely coastal town. It is a great place to stop and unwind. Keppel Bay Sails Club has great food. The staff are fantastic and friendly. There are many things to do if you take the time to wander around and discover. Nearby Emu Park is beautiful. The war memorial is a must to visit as is the corner Cafe. This part of the coast is always a great stopping point.

This is a nice small town with everything you need. Grocery stores are a 5 minute drive and smaller shops and restaurants are walkable. Much of the ocean shore is rock but there are several swimming beaches. They have a golf club, bowling club and miles of walking trails.
