The property location is catch 22, a very quick walk to the beach but right across from the surf club that gets rowdy on Fri and Sat nights, wasn't the best for our kiddos who are a bit more sensitive to noise. Our recliner lounge didnt recline and would connect so the 3 seater kept sepeating. great food options around and within walking distance, nice views. decent parking

Our apartment was very tired and rundown. Definately in need of a refurbish. My friend who stayed had lovely apartments which had new kitchens, bathrooms and furniture. We definately drew the the short straw. Oven didn't work and kitchen full of ants, certainly not ideal. The view was amazing though.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The external amenity's were good, nice pools (i really enjoyed the fact there was a bit of access for disability), warm pool and clean, the tennis court was nice and the fact that we didnt need to pay for parking. The location was brilliant but it did mean at night on a Saturday it was VERY loud. Motorcycles, sirens etc. The view was stunning. Inside however our linen has stains, some blankets had "certain" stains which wasn't great. The apartment was dated but we are not fancy people so didnt bother us too much. I would prob. only stay again for the location. Being that i stayed in the more expensive unit i was supprised it didnt quite look like the photos. However the staff were extremely helpful and really nice to chat with. Bit of money could go to repairing / updating the rooms.

This apartment building was so close to the beach. The facilities managers were amazing and friendly. The residents that live in the building were so friendly. Could’ve asked for a better place to stay in a destination that I’ve never been before. Sunshine Coast is, in my opinion, 10 times better than Gold Coast it’s stunning.

Paid for a superior ocean view room, the room was by no means superior or updated. Old furniture and the ensuite bathroom was un-usable due to its faul smell. Only good thing was the pool area (specifically toddler pool for our 2yo) and the balcony view was lovely.
