Mackays

Description:

• This delightfully well-kept motel is one of the best deals in town. It's just 80m (262 ft.) from the beach and 400m (a quarter-mile) from the heart of Mission Beach. The friendly Mackay family repaints the rooms annually, so the place always looks brand new. All the rooms are pleasant and spacious, with white-tiled floors, cane sofas, colorful bedcovers, and very clean bathrooms. Some have views of the attractive granite-lined pool and gardens. Rooms in the older painted-brick wing have garden views from a communal patio. Ask about special packages; they can be extremely good deals and may include such extras as rafting on the Tully River and day trips to the Reef and Dunk Island.
