Grand Mercure Allegra Hervey Bay  

On Shelly Beach in Hervey Bay’s Torquay precinct, steps from the Esplanade and the beachfront. About a 3.5-hour drive from Brisbane and a gateway to World Heritage-listed Fraser Island — humpback whales often pass by these waters.

A beachfront aparthotel with 49 apartments set among tropical gardens and a lagoon pool. Apartments feature full kitchens, private furnished balconies or patios, air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, microwaves and minibars — simple comforts with coastal views.

Take a dip in the outdoor lagoon pool, sweat it out in the 24-hour fitness center, then unwind in the sauna or steam bath. Complimentary Wi‑Fi, tour/ticket assistance for island and whale-watching excursions, free self-parking and an elevator keep stays easy — wake up to sea-breeze mornings.

Small meeting and conference space is available along with complimentary wireless internet. Additional services include limo/town-car options and laundry facilities for convenient work-and-travel stays.

An on-site restaurant serves guests, and the Esplanade is a short stroll to boutique cafes and local eateries. Plenty of nearby options make it easy to taste regional flavors after a day on the water.
