We stayed over the Easter break in a 2br apartment facing the bay. The view was simply stunning. We stayed in Apt147. It had a basic set-up, but it was fine. Small things - the dryer didn't stop on cool cycle and the dishwasher was weak. The couch was old and worn but still okay to use. If you want... More

If you are looking for a comfortable apartment surrounded by lovely restaurants with one of the best ocean views. This is it. Every apartment boasts a magnificent ocean view. The resort has great facilities with a stone throw to the beach.

The purpose of our visit was to attend the wedding of some very special friends of ours. We looked for a place that was close to Fraser Is. and one that could fill our needs / desires while in Hervey Bay (Urangan). The Break Free Great Sandy Straits Resort is part of the Mantra Group and takes in Peppers, The... More

We spent 3 nights at this resort and wished we had had enough time left on our holiday to stay longer. We stayed in a two storey penthouse (UNIT 11) which was located right next to the Marina. The view from both balconies was fantastic as there was always plenty of activity going on with fishing, cruiser and yachts entering... More

The Great Sandy Straits ia a Marina resort at Urangan, located at the southern end of Hervey Bay in sunny Queensland. There's more than a hundred units, with either ocean or marina views.

The view was to die for, could not ask for a better location but it seem to go downhill from there. The cleanliness of the apartment was disgusting, the dust was caked on the fly screen in the bedroom, the floors were dirty with other peoples hair still left on it and the pillows were like rocks. Don't know how... More

We booked two units and asked that they be close together. We could not have been more further apart. This alone ruined our holiday. To make matters worse one of out units, apartment 126 had cockroaches and was so hot as to be uninhabitable. This is the worse place I have stayed in my entire life. The front desk staff... More

Stayed in a third floor 3 bed apt with husband and two young children. Main bed is on 2nd floor which is very impractical with young kids and this wasn't clear in the advertisement. Air con only in lounge room and two bedrooms on main floor are like little saunas. Floor was filthy dirty to the point that our feet... More
