Top Shelly Beach Hotel Reviews

Mantra Hervey Bay

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in a one bedroom waterview Apartment with views over the marina. Sitting on the balcony watching the whale watching boats depart and return was a daily treat. There are several good restaurants within a hundred metres of the complex and the large boat club a few hundred metres up the road. Whale watching cruises were based in the marina so were only a short walk (we went on 2 different cruises and enjoyed them both. We loved our stay."
