Hervey Bay’s Esplanade spans 17 kilometres and is always a hive of activity, no matter the time of day. If you’re planning on staying in town for a few days, then we’d highly recommend basing yourself along this pretty stretch of coastline.
So where do we recommend? Well, it’s hard to go past Oaks Hervey Bay Resort and Spa. The hotel stands out from the crowd with newly refurbished lagoon pools, spacious self-contained apartments and on-site restaurants; Salt Cafe and Bayswater Bar and Grill. You’ll also want to familiarise yourself with the menu at Mineral Earth Wellness Spa, where you can really ease into holiday mode.
Another plus side of staying at Oaks is that you’ll feel right at home. The last thing any traveller wants to do is take time out from their eagerly anticipated getaway to track down the nearest supermarket to stock up on essentials. Guests can now pre-order from a range of food hampers including the Breakfast Bundle, Family Favourites, Movie Night In, Recovery Bag and Corporate Comforts, so everything is there waiting for you in the fridge! Oaks Hotels have also partnered with Menulog, so guests can access a curated Menulog menu featuring hand-picked local restaurants to enjoy in your room or suite.
With all these creature comforts right at hand, you’re probably thinking there’s very little reason to leave your suite during your stay, but you are on Queensland’s Fraser Coast, which means there’s a whole world of incredible sites to see!
If you’re like us and love taking the road less travelled the Tasman Venture’s Remote K’Kari Experience will be right up your alley!
This customised itinerary uncovers the beautiful west coast of World Heritage listed K’Gari. The scenery is vast, breathtaking and possibly unlike any place you have seen before.
But this is no ordinary day tour. Yes, there’s site-seeing but you’re bound to have a whole lot of fun doing it! The tour includes a number of island activities from guided walks, kayaking, snorkeling and tube rides… so hold onto your hats!
