Our third time stying at this beautiful resort and it never disappoints. Approachable staff, tasty buffet breakfast with plenty of vegetarian options and quite simply the hugest, sparkliest, most beautiful pool I have ever had the good fortune to swim in. When we first came here pre-pandemic, my children were 8, 13 and 17. This time they’re 14, 18 and 22! And they love it just as much now. A wonderful place to stay while exploring magical Yunbenun/Maggie island. Sadly now that my eldest has graduated from JCU, we won’t be coming up to Townsville for the foreseeable future. But until we meet again, I shall dream of Peppers appropriately named ‘Blue on Blue’ and that magnificent BLUE pool.

Very good but city view really car park view.

We really enjoyed our stay at peppers. It was a convenient location, comfortable, clean, good food, inviting pools and excellent efficient and warm staff. A little disappointed over car park view as we had to keep the blinds down at all times when we were in our rooms as,, people off the ferry could see straight in. Would stay again.

The location of Peppers is very convenient to shop and ferry terminal. We have stayed here 4 times and have always had rooms on other side of hotel which were much quiter than this trip as we had a room overlooking the public car park and ferry terminal. Overall we were very happy with our stay.

Very friendly staff. Nice facilities. Quiet. Good breakfast. We stayed for a week, and our reservation mentioned "WEEKLY HOUSEKEEPING", so we thought they would come to clean or at least change towels halfway through our stay, but the cleaning staff never came. We would have liked them to clean our room at least once during our stay.
