Book Mantra Proserpine accommodation from AU$90

Gorgeous rooms

Long Island is uninhabited apart from this resort and another the other side of the island. It is tree covered with a number of bush walks and lots of wildlife. There are no cars/vehicles on the island except for resort service vehicles. We loved our accommodation, a bungalow, right on the beach, Ours included a comfortable Queen size bed, a walk in dressing room, large shower room, a small kitchen area with a sink/draining board, microwave (no other cooking facilities), a small ish fridge, a kettle, a toaster, a crockery (enough for one each), a nice selection of teabags, a sachet of washing up liquid/jcloth, an ironing board, iron, safe, an en suite shower room. There is also a lovely wooden verandah with a small table and two chairs, plus a hammock…all just a metre from the beach shoreline. Fabulous views! There are plenty of quiet places to sit around the resort, to sunbathe, read a book, whether it’s by the fabulous tree surrounded pool, or on one of the swinging chairs or sunbeds dotted around, or overlooking the beach. There is no WiFi for guests on the resort and no TV. Mobile one coverage was good in the rooms but would advise ensuring data is topped up. We advise taking some provisions, though this resort does discourage BYO. You can buy a few bear essentials at the resort but these amount to toothpaste and sun cream type of items. It is fully licensed and has a main bar/restaurant and a Sunset Bar on the beach, which opens 4.30-6.30pm.

Value accommodation and convenient location

We had a room on the southern end ,3rd floor no:331, overlooked marina and the pool. It was very quiet own that end

Small island, relaxing & not a lot to do on the island if your not into swimming pools, limited Dining options, menu should change every couple of nights for more variety - but very central & great spot to do day excursions to other islands.

It was a privilege to stay in this Grand Old Lady old-style hotel. Inexpensive, terrific value for money. We'll be back.
