My sister and I had cake and coffee here for morning tea one day. The staff were friendly and helpful and even entertained my sisters baby for her. The cakes were delicious and the coffee were good too. I would love to go back and try some of the other food on the menu so time, other patrons were eating delicious looking food.

This review is for Crater Lake Rainforest Cottages, Lake Eacham QLD

verified email - 22 Oct 2013

One of the best romanitc getaways we have ever had. The cabins are located in the rainforest and far enough apart to allow for privacy and solitude. We enjoyed watching the rainforest birds and wildlife come right up to the cottage and even onto the porch. The huge bath was very enjoyable and the breakfast basket well recieved. The cottages are located only a short drive from yungaburra and other attraction in the area. We would dearly love to go back.

My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary. The place was luxurious and inviting. The fireplace was going when we arrived on a cold winter afternoon. It is located in quite secluded spot but is also only a short drive to the wineries and attractions that Stanthrope is famous for. We had a wonderful time and would happily go back.

We recently went to coffs harbour for a wedding and stayed here in a studio cabin. The cabin was clean and tidy and met our needs well. The staff were lovely and happy to help us with a late night check in and we drove from Brisbane after work. The facilites were great and we had fun in the water park area. We had friends staying there also and the kids loved the play equiptment. It is located within easy access of most of the attractions of coffs harbour as well. We would happily stay there again.

This review is for Silver Sands Holiday Park, Evans Head NSW

We recently went camping here with another family and had a wonderful time. We got 2 unpowered camp sites next to each other in a nice section of the park. The park within walking distance of both the beach and the river and we made good use of both. the people who run the park are lovely as are the permanant residents of the park. The facilities are clean. The whole place had a very nice family atmosphere.

This review is for Pancake Manor, Ipswich QLD

verified email - 21 Oct 2013

My husband and I ate here for a brunch on a weekday not long ago. The choice of pancakes was good and we both easily found several options we were happy to try. I had the macadamia nut pancakes and my hubbie had some chocolate ones. The serviing size was very generous and the staff were polite and friendly. The service was also very quick (the restaurant was not very full when we went). I would happily go there again.

This review is for My Midwives Ipswich, Ipswich QLD

verified email - 21 Oct 2013

I used the midwives from My midwives as I wanted continuity of care thoughout my pregnancy, birth and post natal care. The midwives are lovely and are like family now. They allowed me to travel on this adventure exactly the way I wanted too and are open to all sorts of things including home birth and water birth which are hard to do through the public system. I chose a hospital birth but knowing my midwife was a huge benefit for me though what was a challenging birth - they still helped me incorporate a great deal of what I had hoped for in the birth. They also provided 6 weeks of post natal care for which they came to me at home. I cannot recomend this service highly enough. The continuity of care thoughout the whole process is invaluble.

This review is for Rosa Mexicano, Graceville QLD

I have eaten here a couple of times and have had varying experiences. The food is very nice and the service is generally pretty good. It was disappointing they were not at all flexible with its meal deal of the night for a gluten free member of our party (dispite the requested exchange costing exactly the same amount as the offered item). Overall the place has a nice atmosphere and is a good place for some tex mex food. I would not take my kids there though because of some of the fragile decorations and slightly cramped table spacing in parts of the restaurant
