Cardwell Beachcomber Motel & Tourist Park

The restaurant was a bit expensive but a good meal, caravan sites were very dry grass and dusty roads in comparison to the front entrance which was lush green grass,to suck you in I guess. Dated amenities but clean ,good wifi, lots of yapping dogs which the manager doesn't seem to control. Expensive in comparison to other parks

The motel had everything as described. The room was clean and spacious. Comfortable pillow top mattress, New flat screen TV. The view was lovely. The bathroom was dated, however this was budget accommodation and so it met expectations. We spent three weeks on the road travelling from Brisbane to Port Douglas and return and this was the only accommodation out of all of them that was as per the description with everything working. The irony was that this was one of the more lower budget places than anywhere else we stayed yet we had the best experience!

I enjoyed my stay but next time I’ll stay in a room upstairs as every time someone moved the chairs upstairs it was annoying. The restaurant wasn’t great though.

Neat clean and excellent location opposite the beach and you have a veiw of hinchenbrook island. Excellent restaurant and bar on premises. The location has everything you can do as much as you want or in our case returning from Cape York just taking it easy and doing as little az possible. The prices are very reasonable and facilities laundry pool just be mindful of crocodiles signs up as well

Great place to stay, comfortable and friendly staff. Food was good at restaurant. Very convenient for us.

We were so looking forward to staying in this park. We had specifically booked a slab site at the beginning of April and were told there are more slabs than grass. When we got there they had put us on a grass site. When we enquired if we could move we were told the park was fully booked. We had to go and buy a cheap floor mat. Two days later 6 slab sites were still empty in front of us so we went to enquire why we couldn’t have moved. We were told our van was too big (18ft) however there were 2 vans a lot bigger than us including a huge motorhome on the sites. When we asked how come bigger vans than ours were on there we were told if we are unhappy we could get a refund (not sure whether it would have been a credit or whether it was for 1 night only) if we packed up now and left. This was on our last day at approx 12pm in the pouring rain had it been day 1 we would have done it for sure. Our neighbours in the Park also just couldn’t understand why the Management did what they did it just didn’t make sense. We are sadly giving up caravanning through ill health but we had intended to return to use the cabins in the future – not now and our friends in 3 vans who are travelling now and were considering coming to this park will be giving the Park a miss. Great disappointment but luckily the only van park in 3 months that has been like that in fact the worse service we have ever had.

Very quiet along the beachfront units, nice restaurant on site.

Great sport right on the water. Awesome views right at your door.

The weather was disappointing but the park was not. I had a nice grassy spot. It was well away from the highway so nice and quiet. The pool looked inviting but I am not a fan of swimming in the rain so I passed. The amenities were clean and well maintained. There is a pub and a restaurant adjacent. I did not use either. The receptionist was lovely and very helpful.
