Reserved a one-bedroom oceanview unit at the last minute for the ANZAC holiday. Very pleased. Price was reasonable, furnishings were fine, view was great, restaurants and shops were within easy walking distance. Appreciated the gated underground carpark. Having laundry in the unit was very helpful. Would definitely recommend.

We booked here last minute for an impromptu night away. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and airy. (As a bonus there was no musty dank smell which I find commonly in hotels, especially the bathrooms!) Great view. Great location. We will definitely be back - and for a much longer visit.

We stayed in a 1 bedroom unit with ocean view for 3 nights. The view was magnificent. We were able to sit on our balcony and have full view of the beach (worth the extra dollars). A noisy road was between us and the beach but we didn't hear it at night (close the doors and turn on the air/con).The... More

It was our first stay in Coolum as we have family who just moved to the Sunshine Coast to live. We found that we had been upgraded from a studio to a one bedroom apartment & it was remarkably spacious & well furnished. An underground car park kept our families car cool & secure too. The staff at reception were... More

We stayed in a 2 bed apartment with my baby and my parents, rooms were large and airy great views of the ocean and good facilities, could have been a bit cleaner, but would go back again for sure. The location is awesome some nice restaurants near by and short walk to bowls club, slsc, Coles etc. would recommend

Having booked unseen, I was rather wary of what we would get but, on arrival, I was quite impressed with what we received. I had booked a studio room but, when we arrived, we were told that we had an ugrade to a one bedroom unit. This was impressive as it only cost $450 for three nights over Easter. How's... More

We were advised that Reception closes at 4pm on Sunday so we altered our plans to... More

We stayed for 2 nights in a studio room and paid only $125 per night. The room was basic, but comfortable, clean and tidy. The bed was good and bathroom a good size. If we stayed again I would pay a little more for a 1 bedroom ocean view, because we had ocean glimpses from our balcony and I was... More
