Overall Ratings & Reviews BreakFree Great Sandy Straits Hervey Bay

Great location on the water. Walking distance to the marina and some cafes. Functionally the apartment was spot on (3 bdrm, 2bthrm, kitchen, laundry) and mostly clean. Apartment is dated but met our needs.

The property has an excellent location near the beach and the docks where most of the whale watching tours begin. The property is oldrr but our flat wss well renovated and had great views but being next to the boats was occasionally a little noisy. The property management was helpful, but the main issue seems to be housekeeping. In a nineteen day stay we had two cleans. They also seemed to not refill certain things. As a sufferer of dust mite allergies, I found the flat too dirty.

Great location, facilities a little run down.

A great location, nice and quiet.

Absolutely beautiful spot with the best views! Quiet and very peaceful!

Very disappointed that there was no Wifi available as we were not informed when booking - we could have made other arrangements or not booked at all if we had known in advance. Not sure there is any other similar accommodation in Australia which does not have wifi so a shock! Did learn to use our mobiles as a hot spot so some sort of positive learning.

We had the most wonderful stay. Our room was on the ground floor facing the beach, about 50 metres from the pool. The view from our unit was to die for. Waking up and jumping in the ocean or pool was such a luxury. The location was amazing - walking distance to everything we wanted - aquarium, markets, boat club and a quick drive to the botanical gardens and waterpark. We’ve already decided we’ll be back annually and we want the same unit! The spa bath was also beautiful, and second toilet was convenient. Only downfall was no wi-fi, although not a huge issue as we were having too much fun during the day. It would just be nice to watch a movie at night. Phone reception was poor, so hotspotting was not an option.

We started in room 169. This room should be condemned, it had mould, it smelled, the carpet was old and dirty, and the furniture looked like it had gone through a flood. The whole unit was old and in need of a refurbishment. We complained and were immediately moved to a suite, unit 130. Much better, but to think this room leases for $504 per night is so overpriced. I would not pay more than $150 per night to stay at this complex.

The property is in a great location with beautiful ocean views. The room was dated and ceiling needed cleaning from dust but overall a comfortable stay. The lap pool was lovely.

Amazing views and a great beach and pools. Close walk to lots of dining options. Apartments are a little dated and more parking for higher vehicles in the property would be good.

Absolutely beautiful the fact you walk out the back and you’re on the beach. The spa bath is great as well.

Great location and amenities with friendly staff.

The staff was very accommodating and helpful. Very upbeat.

Good location and good parking. Friendly staff. Room has a nice view of the sea and beach but is very dated. Quiet. Safe. What we needed. I’d recommend but definitely needs modernising

Great location Nice and close to everything Our apartment was great could use a little updating but very comfortable Wifi would have been good All in all a great spot to stay

This property was very dated but was also very dirty. Floors and bathroom were filthy. Couch stained and throw cushions dirty.Mould evident in bathroom.Would not stay again

Fantastic property for where we needed to be. We were top floor

Great location just a bit dated

Lovely, quiet,clean with amazing view. Had a bottom unit near pool so missed view this time.

Nice to have the additional space in the apartment and a good kitchen, covered parking too. Very close to the water. Enjoyed the bats at night!! Bedrooms did not have AC but had fans, so ok. Fans in bathrooms didn’t seem to work. AC in main area was great but condenser unit was on balcony so was hard to keep apartment cool and enjoy the balcony.
