Ocean International Hotel
About
Overview & Vibe
The Ocean International sits on Bridge Road at Illawong Beach in East Mackay, a beachfront hotel with two function rooms, its own restaurant and rooms for the whole wedding party.
Setting & Style
The two function rooms are the Spinnakers Room, seating up to a hundred and eighty, and the Schooners Room at a hundred and twenty, with a private executive boardroom for smaller gatherings. Rooms come dressed with a lectern, iced water, glasses and mints, set up in whatever configuration suits, and the hotel runs state-of-the-art audio-visual and breakout areas alongside. An experienced wedding and events coordinator handles the planning, and Oceans Bar & Restaurant covers the food and drink. Guests stay on site, which for a beachfront hotel in Mackay is most of the practical argument.
