“Awesome spot and pool.”

Great position close to eateries and the beach. For the price we thought it wasn’t value for money. Room was very small and basic.

Great position close to eateries and the beach. For the price we thought it wasn’t value for money. Room was very small and basic. The shower is very dangerous very hard to get in and out for elderly and small children. Cracked hand basin. The pool was awesome, but wondered why some guests were allowed to have glass in the pool area! The staff were very friendly and polite. Would return but not to a hotel room.

“Lazy getaway”

The resort is located with spectacular views and is within walking distance to most places and the car can be left parked till departure. The complex was opened in the late 90’s and could do with some TLC. The pools were great and we had no problems with the lift with a luggage trolley very handy. … lisää

Service was not an issue with reception being very helpful.

“Great view, poor apartment”

We stayed in apartment 39a on level 3, which had a magnificent ocean view from both the loungeroom and bedroom. However for $4,060 for 14 nights ($290/night) we found the apartment very basic.

We stayed in apartment 39a on level 3, which had a magnificent ocean view from both the loungeroom and bedroom. However for $4,060 for 14 nights ($290/night) we found the apartment very basic. There was only a double hotplate, microwave, toaster and kettle in the kitchen (no oven, griller, dishwasher, sandwich maker or airfryer), which made meal preparation difficult. The TV had to be navigated through Foxtel, which caused us problems as channels frequently didn't have sound, so the TV had to be turned off and restarted. Also while watching a movie on Foxtel the sound frequently lagged further and further behind the picture, so the TV had to be restarted 16 times during a 98 minute movie. The bathroom floor is about 2 cm higher than the bedroom and passage floors, which is a trip hazard. Although there is a lift from the basement, 7 steps still have to be navigated to access the apartment, which is an issue for the elderly and those with prams. No vacuum cleaner, just an old broom and mop. Cutlery and crockery appeared to have come from an op-shop, as nothing matched. There were only 2 dessert spoons, 4 forks and 5 knives (all different). The base of the clothes dryer is above average head height, which is a safety issue. Very difficult to open, load or unload. Apart from the fantastic view, we expected more for our $4060.
