An outstanding place to stay sandwiched between two attractive beaches on the outskirts of Bowen. Our upstairs unit was spacious and clean and had fabulous views from the valcony out over the well kept grounds to the ocean. We self catered, but the motel has a bar and there is a restaurant down by one of the beaches which is open on certain days of the week. I understand there is also a Thai restaurant nearby which opens at weekends. We enjoyed the circular walk up to the radar station lookout and clambering over the rocks to a couple more secuded coves. There is also a swimming pool sensibly situated to the side of the building we were in. Reception was friendly and efficient, and we appreciated the on site laundry.

What isn't to love about Bowen!!

What isn't to love about Bowen!! It's a beautiful spot with some great cafes and pubs. Our family and friends love it and its on 45mins down the road. This time we stayed again at the Horseshoe Bay Caravan Park which we love for overnight and long weekend stays. The cafe is right there for all meal options and the cocktail menu is great!! I love that you can walk to Horseshoe bay for swim or round the corner to Grays bay. We didn't get out the bikes this time but it's easy enoungh to ride to other beaches. Don't forget Bowen has a water park for the kids ( up to about 12yrs) not really designed for big kids.

Loved our new accommodation located in Rose Bay and the people and visitors there. Saw whales off shore. Businesses not far away for essentials and takeaway food. The view from the lookout on Flagstaff Hill is amazing and gives a full 360 degree view of Bowen and the surrounding area. It's so easy to navigate Bowen but Google maps makes it so much easier.

Bowen is a small town in an amazing location surrounded by very picturesque beaches and very little traffic. It has a long jetty where you can walk and see dugongs, stingrays, sea turtles, fishes, and surrounding islands. It has many good restaurants to eat in and fresh seafood shops alongside Woolworths, IGA, Kmart hub and chemists. It is a 2 hr drive up to Townsville and 1 hr drive to Airlie Beach and Shute Harbor for amazing reef trips, and just 1 hr to Proserpine Airport. The stay here is very relaxing and prices for accommodation reasonable. It is a great place for families.

Desperately needs a decent taxi service.

Desperately needs a decent taxi service. I was visiting friends which was hard enough. Would never recommend as a holiday destination basically due to lack of tansport options. Couldn't even enjoy a couple of glasses of wine together over dinner :-(

Very clean with attention to detail. Staff friendly and welcoming. We stayed in a cabin which had everything we needed for our couple of nights. A short walk to Queens Beach and with a walkway through to the pub made it an excellent location for our purposes. Bowen was a great place to visit with lovely beaches, good walks and fresh seafood from the wharf….
