Rooms are tired, stained duvet cover not changed even after requests, but the pool area was brilliant. We spent the entire stay at the pool and faux beach, also we loved the absolute best bakery in Queensland just next door, Rise French bakery was the highlight of the stay.

All good except the stress of trying to book though them - which I have talked to them about …. (I ended up b poking through Expedia because it was impossible for me to get a rate through their ‘dynamic’pricing and worldwide reservations - but we have sorted that. Thank you

We have stayed here several times and always enjoy the location, facilities and locality. Handy for local cafes and restaurants, shopping and beaches not too far away. Would recommend having a car to make things easier. Overall, a great base for everyone to enjoy.

Starting to look a bit run down. The service was poor as it seems like they are happy to get you there and don’t really care about anything else besides the payment for the room. Got sick of waiting for them to get back to you.
