I researched a lot of locations for our quick one night stay, and this was a great choice! Right on the beach, and a short walk to parks, pools, and the kids water park, as well as a great array of cafes and restaurants. We paid $130 and had a room with a queen and a double bed. The room... More

Stayed here for three nights Jan 2011, and were offered those at very reasonable price, compared to what we had paid at other places throughout Australia. Theresa offered us the keys to three rooms so we could pick what we wanted and all three were immaculately clean and comfortable looking. We really enjoyed our stay here as Theresa and John... More

We were a bit put off by the shabby appearance of the motel but we wanted to be on the strand. It was a bit overpriced for the standard of room - but it was clean. Had a fabulous Thai takeaway dinner on the beach across the road, absolutely fantastic.

We were a bit put off when we drove up and work men were sitting around the front of there rooms drinking beer, I asked could we see a room before we checked in and were told well you have booked it, you will be paying for it anyway!, where as other places would never treat people like that, so...

The Beach House Motel’s rate is price appropriate and given that it is situated on the beach front in Townsville and is walking distance to clubs, hotels, restaurants, take-a-ways, shops, Casino and ferry terminals , it is only logical that the rate is going to be higher than motel’s that do not have this location. In future for Annelikestotravel to... More

Stayed in The Beach House Motel for over a month and loved every minute. Theresa and John were very good to us Irish girls and we couldn't thank them enough. There are only good words to describe our stay here. The rooms were clean, comfortable and spacious. We had everything we needed and more. Wonderful views of the Strand and... More

Made booking over phone owner could not be more helpfull. Arrived on the 28th /04/2011 with husband and 2 children. Next day the owner caught me in the car park on my way shopping with one of our older daughters( aged 22 ) who lives in Townsville and asked how many people we had staying in the room. Told her...

The most relevant factor to this response is the fact that this review is libellous. It is a written review in retaliation for a business requesting a customer pay the appropriate fee (a fee which was already discounted). This review has been put on the internet with the intention to potentially damage and negatively affect the financial income of the... More

This place was leftover from the 1960,s but still going strong. You would stay here if just for the view to Magnetic Island. The rooms were ok, clean and the beds comfy. The best was the Townsville Strand outside your door. It seems everyone in Townsville is out for a walk either early in the morning or in the late... More

The location on the Strand with plenty of off-street parking was perfect after long days of driving. We walked everywhere, loved the Strand, the open air pool, the exercise stations, the wide range of food options. Although the motel style rooms are old fashioned, they are clean, spacious and they still have those traditional motel touches of fresh milk and... More

We had driven all the way from Melbourne over a couple of weeks, and we had stayed at many motels - but this was our favourite from the whole trip. From the moment I popped into the reception the owner couldn't do enough for us and was very friendly - she gave us tips for what to do in town... More

Stayed at the Beach House in May 2009. The motel is well located, right in the middle of the strand easy walking distance to nearby restaurants/bars. Plenty of parking, quiet location, and free cable tv. The rooms appear to have been recently painted in a fairly pleasant yellow and fit out with some artwork. The shower has good pressure but...
