Here's why we're suddenly booking flights to Townsville
This Queensland town has just stepped things up a notch in time for summer.
What do we have here?
Following a AUD$44 million redevelopment, Townsville’s The Ville has become a light, airy and swoon-worthy resort.
What's on the agenda?
With any luck, very little. An infinity pool that’s home to the Splash Bar is the go-to for relaxation in this balmy green destination – a common gateway to the Great Barrier Reef and Daintree.
What's to eat?
After a quenching beverage at popular Quarterdeck Bar, head to the lobby level to sample the Asian fare of Miss Songs. And then there’s The Palm House.
The Palm House
Make your way around The Palm House buffet (for breakfast and dinner) where live-action cooking stations and alfresco dining are the order of the day.
Where to sleep?
The Ville’s restoration has included its easy, breezy and contemporary rooms with fresh furnishings and tropical feels. And, if you decide you’ve had your fill of rest and relaxation, you can visit the casino on site. To book, visit The Ville’s website.
