Probably the best appartments we have stayed at - super clean, modern and fully equiped, great pool, great BBQ area, and joy - the pool is solar heated. Road noise and light in the bedroom early in the morning were the only concerns. Matt - if interested the only things I could suggest for you: *Could do with increasing the... more

Myself and my fellow flight crew member stayed in the Akama apts in Hervey bay whilst on our flying tour of Australia. We landed into to Hervey without a booking so I quickly headed for the internet PC at the airport to look up trip advisor recommendations. I quickly decided on these apts due to the good rating by other... more

Spent a wonderful 2 nights here. We wish we could have spent longer. Beautiful and exceptionally clean apartment. Matt was so helpful (he even mended our pushchair handles for us). We spent 5.5 weeks in Oz and Hervey Bay was our best place. We nicknamed it "Friendly Bay" we felt so welcome and the Akama really made all the difference.... more

The couple who run the place were very helpful, an apartment worth going to Hervey Bay for ! more

My wife and I stayed at the Akama Resort during our vacation in July. Matt and Pia (and the cutest little boy in Australia) were really helpful. The room was large, clean, quiet and convenient. It is not right on the water and it is typical of other Australian accomodations, which are more like American short-term apartment leases than American... more

We took visitors from the UK to Hervey Bay as a base for whale watching and Fraser Island. We stayed an extra day because the Akama was such a beautiful location and the unit was superb. Six stars should be possible for this resort. Our thanks to the hosts for a wonderful example of what Australia can offer to overseas... more
