Ideal location, friendly honest helpful staff, great facilities. Unfortunately we had accidentally damaged an ottoman and they were willing to charge us the sale price for it’s replacement and fuel to collect it instead of keeping a larger amount from the deposit. We will be back.

I really enjoyed the location, it was quiet and close to everything that mattered to me. I was able to go for a beach walk in the morning before my conference started.

Accomodation was good, slightly dated and could do with a tidy up but great location. Easy check in and out. However booked a one bedroom apartment with pull out bed in the lounge. When we requested sheets for the pull out we were told it would be an extra $44 AUD per night! We booked and paid for an apartment with two beds expecting to be able to use the two beds! There was no mention of additional charges if you wished to use the pull out bed and $44 AUD per night for just an extra set of sheets is extortion.

Older style low rise apartments. Spotlessly clean, good WIFI, streaming channels, aircon, washer & dryer, full kitchen, hot shower and comfy bed. Excellent location. Very quiet, coffee shop across the road, beach, walking path, park and playground at end of the road. Oasis shopping centre & Woolies less than 5 minute walk and easy walk to Pacific Fair and Broadbeach restaurants. Highly recommend

The accommodation was close to where we needed to be. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. The air conditioner was located in the lounge, not the bedroom. It took awhile to cool the bedroom down.

Great location average lodgings

Best thing about this property is the location. It’s very rundown. Shower is shocking goes from cold to boiling hot every couple of mins. Not that clean lots of dust on skirting boards and lots on ornament on table. Just ok, I have frequented Aruba properties on the Gold Coast and this one is by far the worst.

It was easy to get there and close to where we needed to be. A but shabby in the unit. On the plus side, the shower was good, the bed reasonably comfortable and the area was quiet for the time we were there.

Great location within easy access to everything we needed. The only downside was caused by inconsiderate tenants who continually allowed security and apartment doors to slam shut whenever accessing the property

Kellie on reception was very friendly and helpful, as well as patient with me when I kept entering the wrong pin number for debit card. My husband & I had a comfortable 8 night stay. Our apartment was quiet & private at the back of the building with a large verandah. Everything worked well and aircon was brilliant. Shower water pressure was great with good temperature. Pool & Spa area are well maintained. Our apartment was serviced half way through our stay which was much appreciated. This location can't be beaten! Everything required is within a short walk. NOTE TO OWNER OF APARTMENT 2. Something needs to be done to cover up the unsightly brown stains on the side of the washing machine beside the toilet, or replace with new machine. We freaked out when we first saw it, then on closer inspection my husband said it looks like rust coming from washing machine. The apartment is nice and has a lot going for it, so it is such a shame about the appearance of the washing machine.

My stay.

The unit was very clean and comfortable. However I noticed a hole in the ceiling where a fire alarm once was and also a spit in the fabric on the lounge. The grounds were well kept as was the pool area. Check in and check out was quick and easy.

4/10 Fair

Caution before renting The pictures do not represent the apartment's current condition. No air conditioning in the bedroom. Mouse turds in the closet. Entering the building, common area are worn, dated and dirty. The apartment furniture is rubbish, beyond op shop quality, soiled and damaged. Appliances are old but work. The microwave is rusty inside, not usable for health reasons. Window coverings do not blackout. It is impossible to regulate hot and cold water mix in the shower. The biggest disappointment was the floors were filthy upon arrival. Midway in our stay service cleaning was included. In reality it was changed of linen and garage out. Nothing else. We clean apartment ourselves. Management are aware of these concerns as we told the reception. On the positive, the bed is comfortable, clean linens and towels. Pool, spa and outdoor bbq are good. In conclusion absolutely not worth the price.
