Ok for work travel for one night if you eating out. We booked it as self catering and were very disappointed in the kitchen facilities which let it down badly. The fridge froze all our food even after turning it right down and the safe was broken. Disappointing.

Gladstone has so many beautiful parks walks and water fronts to spend your time in. A large variety of restaurants and plenty of shops and things to do. The nightlife also doesn’t disappoint, there are quite a few venues to choose from to go for a dance, an evening meal or to sit for a few drinks with live music. The locals were all very polite and friendly and helpful, it’s a very family friendly city and we think has a lot to offer.

There are walks from the famous Keppel Bay marina south of Yeppoon to Rosslyn Bay and dramatic landscapes, quarry and mountain as well as tours to the bay and reef. Yeppoon has a good selection of shops, bars, cafes and restaurants plus beachside walk and parks excellent for children. There is the tourist visitor centre just out of Yeppoon where there is a World Class marine and shell life museum - a must see for the whole family. Small coastal town feel with pretty much everything you would need.

This is a nice small town with everything you need. Grocery stores are a 5 minute drive and smaller shops and restaurants are walkable. Much of the ocean shore is rock but there are several swimming beaches. They have a golf club, bowling club and miles of walking trails.
