Waterfront apartment rentals

Aquarius on the Strand - Oceanfront Unit
We had a fantastic stay & thoroughly enjoyed our time in Townsville. Everything was clean, tidy & easy to assess. Parking also not an issue. Very nice little apartment!

Water Views Studio
Great location! Unit is very nice and contained in a fantastic complex with excellent facilities.

Marina Oasis-waterfront complex+pool@sublimetsv
This was our first Airbnb experience, the accommodation and host experience did not disappoint! The Marina Oasis apartment is brilliantly located at the end of the Strand, a short walk from the Entertainment Centre and The Ville restaurants and casino. It is superbly appointed with particularly comfortable and stylish furnishings and decor. Louise was an attentive host ensuring we were comfortable, had everything we needed and was responsive to any of our queries. Highly recommend this apartment for long or short term stays in Townsville.

City Central - Walk to Stadium & Restaurants
Great place and perfect location for anybody going to the stadium for the rugby

Absolute Waterfront Apartment - Superior Studio 13
Fantastic room and the view from the room was stunning. Great location and Zara was so hellpful with everything and Lizzie was great too. Would definitely recommend staying here and I would stay here again 😊

Seaview on The Strand
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful little home! The space was spotless, with every detail thoughtfully considered to ensure comfort. The peaceful atmosphere was exactly what we needed to relax and recharge. The bed was cozy, the amenities were top-notch, and the surrounding area was quiet yet conveniently located. Communication with the host was seamless, making the entire experience even better. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a clean and serene getaway.

On the Chew, Giant Trevally unit 1
Nice simple little unit at the end of a dead end street. Traffic is minimal and the neighbourhood is very quiet. Beach access is straight across the road which gives you ocean views and the sound of waves crashing on the beach. I plan to book this place again next year

Centrally located Beach House - Lower level
It was really great to stay at Scott's place in Balgal Beach. He responded within 10 minutes, extremely flexible including allowing us to check out late, allowing us to use the deck upstairs (as he was away) and suggestions for food places. The one bedroom apartment downstairs is quite big with a lounge area, a large bedroom with two double beds and a kitchen & dining area. It is very clean, neatly decorated and organized. The location of the place could not be better right across the beach and within 100m of a great fish and chips place! Highly recommended and I look forward to returning here soon.

MainRidge on Lake Tinaroo
It’s a great house for a large group. Certainly has plenty of space and everything you need for a great weekend for family and friends

The Artist House - Absolute Beachfront
We had such a great stay, a beautiful place, great rooms & facilities and an amazing outdoor area with views out to Dunk island and down the beach. So close to the water, down the stairs, and out the gate to 10kms of pristine coastline. Incredible sunrise and shaded beach in the arvo. So much to do, from island hopping and fishing charters to exploring the inland hikes, waterfalls and swimming holes. We were torn between spending time exploring and hanging at the house - it really is a beautiful property to chill at, the pictures don't do it justice.

LakeSide Tinaroo only 2.5km from Yungaburra town
Beautiful location on the lake. Definitely a place set up for large families or even multiple families to stay. Probably a bit of overkill for just two friends but, it was a great stay. Lots of amenities and activities.

Bramston on the Beach: A Private Poolside Oasis
This beautiful property is perfect for a group, with all the bedrooms having their own ensuites. The kitchen is the best stocked kitchen I’ve ever experienced making cooking at home easy and enjoyable. The house is lovely, open and light looking out to the beach with a gorgeous pool. It’s impossible not to relax at this beautiful property. We loved it. Also plenty of space to have your own down time with two outdoor areas and generous open plan living space. Thankyou !!

Tinaroo Lakefront Homestead
This place is beautiful! We had a special time away, in this lovely home, with excellent facilities. Will definitely come again!

Toolakea Seaside Escape - Townsville North
The accomodation was beautifully presented with lots of little welcoming touches. There was plenty of space and thoughtful additions to make our stay memorable. It was exactly what we hoped it would be and more! Highly recommend if you are looking for a relaxing getaway.

Beachside Magnetic Harbour 3 Bedroom Ocean View
This is one of the nicest places we have stayed. The view is amazing and the apartment has everything we needed for a relaxed stay on Magnetic Island.

Modern spacious 1 bedroom executive apartment
Was a great apartment, so very central to everything - stadium and city centre, restaurants and markets. Brett was a pleasure to deal with and very helpful. Light and bright with awesome views of the river and stadium, even Maggie Island can be seen.

Water views, spacious, 3 bedroom, walk to Stadium
Old school airBnB. Lived in space, had everything we needed. We were close to amazing restaurants (We highly recommend ‘A Touch of Salt’ superb 5⭐️ dining), the Cowboys Stadium & Townsville nightlife. Anthony’s place has a large balcony with a beautiful view of Castle Hill & the River/ Yacht Club. Whilst it was easy to access the building, it was still very secure (parking and accommodation) we would definitely stay here again! Thank you Anthony. Just a note for elderly visitors, both bathrooms (ensuite + main ) have over bath showers (quite a step up and into the bath - my 80 yo in-laws managed, but just an FYI for those of you wanting to stay with elderly family).🙏🏻
