Beautiful view. It’s a shame the food was terrible. Overpriced and lacked any kind of flavour. We ordered the cheesy garlic bread, cheesy garlic grilled chicken wrap, fish and chips and the three amigos pizza. The pizza was probably the only meal that came close to being worth the amount we paid. Overall extremely disappointed, I’ve had better quality meals at a fraction of the price.

Close & walking distance to so many sights on that part of Maroochy & Cotton tree. Highly ...
