I chose this resort for its beautiful sunsets but ended up feeling disappointed. The rooms had a comfortable bed and clean amenities, but the overall appearance was tired and needed some updates. The staff were friendly, especially in the bar, but I encountered issues with the facilities and dining options. I would recommend staying here only during the dry season when more amenities are available, especially considering how the restaurant was closed during my visit.

The Albatross Bay Resort is a decent choice in Weipa, although it has its ups and downs. The location offers some great views and the rooms are quite spacious and comfortable, but the dining experience left much to be desired. The staff were generally helpful, but there were hiccups, especially during breakfast. Overall, it’s a mixed bag, but not the worst option in town.

Albatros Bay Resort is a decent option in a location with limited choices. My cabin was clean and quiet, though the amenities felt standard and could use some updates. The free continental breakfast was a nice touch, and the outdoor deck at the restaurant provided fantastic views. However, the Wi-Fi only worked in the main building, which was quite inconvenient.

My stay at the Albatross was a mixed bag. While I found the location charming and the rooms spacious, my experience was marred by poor service and some cleanliness issues. On the bright side, the meals were quite filling, and the fishing was spectacular. However, I did have some concerns about the sanitary conditions in the kitchen. It could be a great spot if some improvements were made.

I found the Albatros Bay Resort to be a decent choice for the limited accommodations in Weipa. While the cabin I stayed in was fairly quiet and clean, it did feel a bit dated. The staff provided great service, which is a huge plus, though the restaurant prices were on the higher side. Overall, it offers good value for a spot in the outback, especially with the beautiful views from the outdoor area.
