"Amazing staff! My friend and I had the best experience at this stay. The staff were so nice and helpful. Before coming here we have had the worst time with our car breaking down and we got stuck in a storm here. But the people here were so nice we want to come back. The staff makes the stay AMAZING!!"

Ocean Breeze Units
6.5 (40 reviews)

Ocean Breeze Units ★★★

📍 5 Marshall Street, Queens Beach, Bowen

"We have stayed here twice in the last week. The first night we found our room quite acceptable for the price paid. Unfortunately the second night we had a different room. Derelict is probably the best way to describe it. So many things need attention. I do think it was clean but it in such disrepair it felt very grotty."

Shell Motel (Pearly Shell Motel)
8.2 (6 reviews)

Shell Motel (Pearly Shell Motel) ★★★

📍 2 Don St, Bowen

"The room was clean and suitable for two people. The only issue with the room was we had to use our own batteries for the TV remote. As for the Motel itself, the parking design was not the best, and the only other available parking in the middle of the street"

Palm View Holiday Apartments
8.7 (60 reviews)

Palm View Holiday Apartments ★★★★

📍 1 Howard St, Bowen

"I booked the cabin and it was just fantastic. The location, price and service was great. Nice BBQ and pool area makes this property really attractive."

Merinda Village Hotel
6.6 (19 reviews)

Merinda Village Hotel ★★★

📍 13 Linley Street, Bowen

"This is a workers camp, not a motel. I stayed there for 4 nights. My room got serviced once in that 4 days. They made the bed but didn't do any cleaning. The restaurant is supposed to be open until 8pm. I went to have dinner one night at 7:20pm and was told that the kitchen had already closed. I had to travel all the way in to Bowen to get something to eat. I also had to leave my trip a day early due to flooding. I was told by the hotel manager when I had to leave a day early that I would get a refund. She asked for my account details, which I gave her at the time. On the day I would have checked out received a message through ******* saying I had to change my trip through them. I tried that but because the message came through after I would have checked out anyway I couldn't change my booking. That was in December 2024. I paid for my entire 5 day stay at the time I checked in. We are now half way through April 2025 and I'm still chasing them for a one night refund. Pathetic operations management. I have been told it is my fault and that they won't be responding to my emails anymore."

"I may have reviewed this accommodation before but don't mind doing it again. Everything about this place is just fabulous. The bistro serves one of Australia's best pub foods with a fantastic menu and the attached BWS is icing on the cake."

Ocean Breeze Units ★★★
"We were impressed with the space of the accomodation It really is great value. Location is great for a family, close to the beach and also a nice public playground. Pub just up the road for meals and away from the highway so no noise. Ownership is low key but friendly"

Merinda Village Hotel ★★★
"Came to see Valerie sing which was fabulous, unfortunately the bar staff are well below par, need to put a smile on their faces & definitely need better training, my friend asked for a glass of Merlot (red wine) they brought out a bottle of bubbles !!! Then said they didn’t have Merlot , I wanted just a glass of bubbles but was told I HAD to buy a bottle. On a positive HAPPY HR IS GREAT 😊"

Rose Bay Resort ★★★★
"All I can say is 'wow what a view'! Waking up to paradise each morning was just amazing. We had a studio room apartment that was literally on the beach. I liked the accommodation as it was a quieter area away from the crowd. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to others. "
