To be fair I was only there for the one night on business. Lovely view albeit not much of a beach i.e rocks. The hotel itself is looking pretty dated and in need of some TLC. The pool and bar area are really nice. My room was huge but again, a bit tired - older fittings, cold tap need 6... More

I have stayed here a number of times for business when the city hotels are booked out. A reasonable option but some points to note - ask for a room preferably ocean side and not near the restaurant and bar - ask for a refurbed room - watch out if it rains as traffic can take over an hour to...

Went to dolphin heads for lunch and a few drinks.. The location is really nice, if you just want a few drinks and a swim then im sure it would be great. But the food and coffee is terrible, worst iced coffee I've ever had. The food is overpriced and the food combinations are just strange and really do not... More

Our family went to Dolphin Heads for a birthday lunch on a Sunday. We weren't expecting great things based on the reviews but still thought it would be somewhere different to go. I hadn't been there in about 20 years and honestly I don't think it has been refurbished at all during that time. Menu is on the more expensive... More

Stayed here for one while working in Mackay - other hotels booked out so tried here. Hotel is 25minute drive from Mackay, not a lot around it. Has a really nice pool area and nice views of sea although my room was at the back so no views. No gym, does have tennis court and there are a few running... More

Unfortunately Mackay was pretty booked out so I was booked into Dolphin Heads. After a plane delay & getting lost on the way to the resort I arrived at 10pm to a full car park (always disturbing for a female travelling alone). After getting my key from the afterhours safe I found they had placed me on the far side... More

This hotel is a total rip off. They advertise as four star but I would be hard pushed to grant them two. We checked in at around 7pm and had to get our key out of a safe that they had provided the number for when I booked. I paid $145 for a 'four star room' but this was with... More

Stayed here at the end of September 2011 and was not impressed at all. Service from the front desk was good on arrival. The location is also quite good being right on the waters edge. The pool looked nice and inviting but I didn't return from my day until late in the afternoon and by that time it had cooled... More

The ground are very nice well kept the staff are great but the rooms although clean are out dated and the mattress we slept on damaged my back, very worn out in 2 of the 3 rooms we had, with springs poking in you , I confronted reception on departure about the state of the room only to be told...
