Great Stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment was very clean and tidy. It was easy to access and the entry instructions were very clear. The location is great. We enjoyed being able to walk along the Strand each morning and easy access to many restaurants and cafes. We even walked from the Stadium to the apartment after a Cowboys game. Easy access to the pool was fantastic. Our kids swam every day and pool wasn't busy at all. We entertained family using the BBQ and the additional seating and kitchen amenities came in very handy during those times. The ferry terminal to Maggie Island is right across the road which was great for us to take a day trip to the Island. I would highly recommend this apartment for any family wanting easy access to all the great things Townsville has to offer. Brandi and the staff at Holliday Housing were very professional, friendly and helpful. I made this reservation from the USA and all the logistics went very smoothly. Thank you for a great stay!!
