Without prejudice I feel that this property is run by a very disgruntled angry couple that treat their guests as the enemy. You can gauge by their responses to reviews which is predominantly constructive criticism always defensively responding and never acknowledging their shortcomings. The also like to “sign off” in a condescending manner for example “have a nice day” or next time you need to communicate better and so on. Not to draw my own conclusions or be judgmental but it would appear that the insurance company made good after cyclone Debbie and this has allowed them to carry out this excellent rebuilding of this well located property. Unfortunately it appears to have now giving this rather simple couple big heads and a new found sense of self importance. This coupled with an autocratic approach to the running of this formally humble family style side of the highway motel into a upgraded but now full of too many unnecessary posted rules everywhere like it’s a boarding school or military institution making guests feel uncomfortable. This is mentioned repeatedly in many of the reviews and is always responded to in a defensive manner. This has clearly got to this couples heads and is coming out in their approach to their new found “power and status” in their little Proserpine world. Quite sad to see.

Visited to catch up with school friend who lived out of Proserpine on a cane farm. Harvest on so lots of activity around the town, especially the sugar mill. Unfortunately because of COVID and OHS no visits allowed but so big it can be viewed from the street. Ate in the hotel’s restaurant. Bar food available. Run by owners who take great care of their guests. Exceptionally clean. Very easy to walk around town. Cane areas all seemed to be very flat. Would try to stay longer.

Not much there you are better to go to Airlie Beach or Shute Harbour. Industrial town with large sugar refinery billowing smoke. In a time warp the main bakery is very expensive and the quality is lacking.

Proserpine was a pleasant surprise, easy to walk around and friendly people. we only stayed overnight to catch the bus to Bowen. Had a meal at service station bus pickup, very nice good staff and quick service. Wonderful weather
