Mackay Seabreeze Apartments

Mackay Seabreeze Apartments is a beachside, motel-style property in Slade Point with straightforward beach access and a practical pitch for dog owners: dogs are welcome in specific rooms with advance arrangement. It is a simple, budget-friendly beach base rather than a resort experience.

The dog setup

A maximum of two pets applies per accommodation, with an extra charge of AUD $25 per accommodation that can vary with the length of stay. Service animals are welcome and exempt from the fee.

Pets are allowed in specific rooms only, so contact the property before booking to lock in a pet-friendly room, and note that pets must not be left unattended. Confirm the current fee and room availability directly with reception, and bring your own bedding and bowls.

Max: ring ahead and lock in the pet-friendly room by name. Turning up and hoping one is free is a bad plan here since only specific rooms take dogs.

The vibe

It is a motel-style setup with an on-site bistro, kitchen facilities in the rooms and a kids' menu, so it leans toward a family-stay configuration. Who it suits: owners with one or two dogs wanting an easy beach base with food on site.

Getting there and out with the dogs

The property sits in Slade Point on Mackay's northern beaches side, with Slade Point beach and the Scarlett Sand Banks tidal flats a short walk or drive away for a low-tide run.

For a proper off-leash session, Seaview Park Off Leash Dog Beach at Bucasia is a short drive north with wide, hard-packed sand.

If your dog prefers grass and a fence, Gooseponds Dog Park in North Mackay is the handy in-town option.
