Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was really cute. I stayed in room 29 which was adjacent to the pool, restaurant and roof top bar. The room was beautiful and access to the whole property was easy via the lift. The restaurant food was great and I indulged with room service and there were no ridiculous service fees. The only issue I had was there was no pay TV access. I went to Townsville to stay in lovely accommodation for R&R not to sight see and to watch movies in my room for some of the time. I was told the smart TVs weren't very smart and couldn't connect to the property wifi. Anyway I read my book by the beautiful pool and was happy. At night I then streamed shows on my phone lol. I'll definitely return. Thanks team. I really enjoyed my stay of 3 nights.

The aircon is quite loud, and the fridge is right next to my bed. It’s making it hard for me to sleep. No lift to upper level rooms, so we’ll have to carry our heavy luggage up the stairs. It’s a bit like staying in a hostel.

Everything was very good except the aircon wouldnt turn off. Staff ended up doing this from their work area but it meant half of the lighting no longer worked either. Hopefully this is attended to speedily.
