The Bay Apartments

Official Partner

Wake up to the gentle shimmer of Hervey Bay's calm waters from your own bay-facing balcony — The Bay Apartments puts you right in the heart of the action on the Esplanade, with the beach just across the road and morning coffee never far away. Choose from contemporary one, two, or three-bedroom apartments, each generously sized and fully self-contained. Every apartment includes a bay-facing balcony or ground-floor courtyard, with some offering direct access to the pool area. If you'd like a soak under the stars, ask about the Outdoor Spa Apartments, which include a private outdoor spa. The resort grounds are a genuine drawcard. Lap swimmers will appreciate the 25-metre pool, while younger guests gravitate toward the year-round heated wading pool. There's also a hot spa, sauna, gym, a 3/4 size tennis court, and a poolside barbecue area tucked within private botanical gardens — a lovely spot for an easy evening meal. Step outside and the Esplanade stretches out before you, with 16 kilometres of flat walking and cycling paths running along the waterfront. The reception team can point you toward local dining options and help organise day trips to K'gari (formerly Fraser Island) or a humpback whale watching cruise out on the bay.
