A weekend in Brisvegas

Just have had a weekend in the big smoke! Well the biggest smoke thats closest to home. A weekend in Brisbane ! Our hotel for the weekend was the new M on Mary. This 43 story apartment hotel in centre of Brisbane has been open about a year and a great friend of mine is the General Manager.This is a great place for anyone wanting to be in the centre of the city. Parking is available underneath, there is an extra charge though. There is a choice of either one or three bedroom apartments, so it could either be a romantic weekend for 2 or a great city pad for a weekend in town with some mates. Check out their website for rates and booking.
My good friend Vincent Cooper, General Manager of the M on Mary and his Director of Sales, Tracie

M On Mary is the perfect place for those wanting to be in the centre of Brisbane, I parked the car in the carpark during my stay and left it there and walked everywhere. Also a small heads up!! There is a great chinese restaurant right next door that has the best chinese food I have eaten in a long long time.. try it out!
So next trip to Brisbane.. head for the M on Mary.. contact the hotel through their website.

Check out the pics, place looks really nice.. As Brisbane is now only and hour and half up the road from Byron Bay it is very much and easy drive to head up and go out clubbing for a night.

Here's A great winter getaway!

Here's a great deal!

The Villas of Byron Bay have been one of my all time faourite places in Byron since they opened a couple of years ago. I have had the oppurtunity to stay there twice since it opened and can't recommend it enough.

These 6 villas are hidden away in a quiet street in Byron and like me I bet anyone that checks in does'nt leave. I didn't! It was like checking into your own bit of heaven. Whilst you may think it's winter and why would I head to Byron for a holiday? Well, from the minute you walk in you are walking on heated marble floors through out your private villa, then there's the glistening heated pool and spa, all yours and only yours! yes each villla has its own private pool and spa, both heated for winter. To eliminate you getting a chill after you climb out of your pool you are surrounded by big high walls that protect you from the winter wind and any prioring eyes It's the perfect private getaway for you and that someone special.



What about your bedroom? Balinese inspired four poster beds, amazing bathrooms and all of lifes luxuries. Your living space is huge and has all of lifes modern luxuries so bring your favourite DVDs or Cds and enjoy. Another must is to bring your own food... there's an amazing designer kitchen and the last time I stayed I brought a heap of seafood and we had our own banquet around the pool... very romantic! If you feel you must head out Byron Bay it is a 10 minute stroll away and a perfect distance to walk off a dinner after.
Here's the deal!
