We were very happy with our stay in the Mantra Esplanade. The staff were very accommodating and friendly. They made our stay a happy experience. The facilities were really good. The AC was so nice because it cold us from the really hot weather. It was close to everything. Just walking distance to groceries, restaurants, the lagoon swimming pool and the pier for the boats to go to green Island and the great barrier reef. Special mention to Barbara the front desk receptionist. She was very friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you to all the staff for you Special chocolate present you made our Anniversary special. It made us feel so welcome by everyone. We highly recommend Mantra Esplanade to future guest.

Pick somewhere else

From time check in no email or phone call regarding water shut off repair. (Would have stayed somewhere else if known) huge inconvenience for no water. As for the room mildew smell, towels were gross stained brown marks, listed as having a coffee machine the room did not. Had instant powder coffee. Safe didn’t work. When going to front desk with concerns the gentleman blew us off with smart remarks. Not helpful at all. Strongly urge to stay somewhere else. Only positive was the location.
