Stayed just one night with my daughter. Room was spotless and spacious and had a great view of ocean. The young check in staff were very efficient and friendly. Beds were very comfortable. I found the whole place was a bit too spread out. Took ages to walk from our room to the lifts, then from lifts to pool. Also... More

My husband and I stayed here recently overnight on our way up to Brisbane. We had stayed here previously many years ago and loved the hotel. This time we found the place very dated and decor dreary. We booked a water view room, which had the tiniest of water glimpses above buildings, but no view. There were no room safes... More

I 'left behind' some very important property pieces (usb data) and I was extremely anxious about that. Initially, my phone call was not returned - twice over 24 hours when I was assured that someone would return my call. The staff seemed quite busy. Eventually I a receptionist named Tim finally took my call very seriously and managed to locate... More

Our children gave us a voucher so we went. We had an ocean view room. Only the room was very dated. The bar fridge leaked , it rained and the manhole in the bathroom leaked, luckily we had left the bathmat on the floor or we would have slipped during the night. Spa was outdoor and you had to get...

I have stayed in this resort many times when I attend a conference there each year. I had a room on the 4th floor facing the beach and it had been referbished and was very good.

I booked a room on-line for an overnight stay last week. The only nice thing I can say about this resort is the proximity to the beach and the lovely pool areas. The rooms however, are tired and dated. We had a room with a Queen sized bed and a single. The room is spacious enough for a King Sized... More

We used to stay here a lot but that was over 5 years ago. We had the opportunity to stay here again last week but some of the reviews were bad. What a good job we ignored them.
