Riviera Mackay offers spacious, beautifully styled accommodation within a 5-minute walk from the Bluewater Lagoon swimming area and Caneland Shopping Centre. Situated in the heart of Mackay, Riviera Mackay guests enjoy access to a roof top terrace, which includes a giant chess set.

Excellent location by the river, with easy access to Bluewater Quay walk, Fogan bridge and the restaurants and cafes along Wood St. Only 2 mins walkto Caneland shopping centre. We had a comfortable 2brm apartment with a large king bed in one room and Queen in the other. Two bathrooms made it easy with the family. Best of all with the enormous balcony we had. it was bigger than the whole apartment! Other than that the staff were friendly and helpful.

    We stayed at this motel twice in three weeks. It was easy to find although on a busy road. It was ideal for short term stays. We had a room further from the road the first time. It was good value for money compared to much more expensive motel in Cairns.

    The 2 bedroom apartment or villa was massive and had everything we needed. Right on the beach which was perfect. We only stayed 2 nights as we were heading home from Cairns but we wished we had booked an extra night. We walked almost the whole way around the beach which was beautiful. Pools were lovely also.
