Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Check in was a little odd. They were supposed to have sent us an email with the safe code from which we could get our keys and instructions but we didn't receive one! Other than that, our apartment was excellent. It was clean and very well equipped (with a double hob as well as a microwave). It contained a comfortable bed and a good shower. In a busy/noisy town, our apartment was an an oasis of peace and quiet. It had a very nice balcony with a table and chairs which was ideal for breakfast or an evening meal. There were 2 communal washers and 2 dryers ($5 a pop each). There was secure underground parking. It was located only a few minutes stroll from the beach, shops and restaurants.

On arriving and obtaining the key from the safe holder (worked fine) we were met with a two page letter with a list actions we had to do on leaving the property else we would get a $35 fine! This didn't start us feeling very welcome on what we had to do.....i thought we had paid for someone to empty the bins on us leaving the property (can't remember the other items). i think they may have had issues with other guests in the past? The best think about the property was their guide to the local area re restaurants/bars and things to do....probably the best we have ever come across really informative - we found a great one (called light years). Good location to town or the beach, plenty of parking and staff were friendly when available during their working hours. plenty of leaflets available in reception. This didn't seem much of a welcoming place from the list of actions so we wouldn't stay here again....

Extremely unhygienic with bunches of think black hair from someone else. Couch rock hard and bed feels 30years old. Shower Extremely low (I am 164cm and it was at my nose) Staff was rude on arrival and offered NO assistance with checking in. Was told to retrieve a letter from a box out the front for instructions. Terrible customer service. We asked for a refund and were abused by staff so we felt we had no choice but to leave. We were refused the refund and were not offered a solution. This was our honeymoon and it was a horrible experience.

Apartments nice and clean and in a good location. Not too close to the town but an easy walk and far enough away that the sothat the resort noise doesn't disturb you at night. Absolutely loved our little patio with the swing seat. Great place for breakfast. It loses a point in that there was no one on reception when we arrived which was 5pm and although she could give advice on how to retrieve our key, when asked anything else, for example about restaurants she didn't know anything about the local area.. So it felt like there was very little interaction. This is probably fine if you have been to the resort or apartments before but we found it a little disconcerting. The half is deducted really because the bed, although fine, was pretty small for a double. But again it was fine for our few nights stay. I would probably not recommend staying for more than 3 nights.

Easy to find and easy access to the parking underground. Nice greeting and they were happy to help, confirm our trip and advise. Excellent room and access to washing facilities and a pool. Good location with a short walk into Bryon Bay itself. Very clean and room cleaned during our stay.

I know this is a common Schoolies rort - daughter stayed here for Schoolies. Left the place spotless but money was deducted from bond for steam cleaning of a sofa and carpet that were left spotless. Complete rort and should be reported to NSW Office of Fair Trading. Do not stay here - you will get charged for cleaning that was not required.

Immaculate accommodation. Spacious modern apartment,fully equipped kitchen. Large comfy bed. Access to a little gem of a pool (had the weather been better). Underground secure parking with a lift to all floors thereby avoiding humping suitcases up and down stairs. And all within an easy reach of the town (5-10 minutes). Can't recommend it too highly.

Stayed two nights as part of our multi location tour of Australia’s east coast. The property is well located, on the main route in from the Pacific Highway, and close to beach & main shopping/restaurant streets - only a 5-10 minutes walk depending on your pace. The king sized bed was comfortable & the kitchenette had a kettle, toaster & microwave with crockery & cutlery for two. All was very clean; both the apartment and public areas. Secure underground parking is available and there’s also a laundry room with two each commercial washing machines and dryers. At the time of our stay, each cost $5 per load but as commercial machines have good capacity. Would definitely book again if we’re ever back in this part of the country.

Currently here on a solo week long holiday to explore the local area (have a car, underground parking), opted for an apartment as was better suited to my stay. Apartments are in a great location next to the beach and a 5m walk from town. My room was spotless on arrival and the staff work extremely hard to keep the apartment block neat and tidy. Will be back with my friends. Ps Grateful the friendly customer service who accommodated me due to the COVID restrictions.

We stayed here overnight on a road trip to Brisbane. Check-in was just after the office closed, but we received instructions via text message, allowing us to collect our key from the security safe with a code. There was plenty of undercover parking, with internal stair and lift access to our ground floor unit, which opened out on to the pool area at the rear. The day was hot and humid, but the air conditioning was running when we arrived, giving a welcome respite as we brought our luggage in. The unit was sparkling clean, and well equipped for an overnight stay, or for a week or more. The location was excellent, with a short walk to the beach, and the town centre. In the evening, we walked to the ex Services Club for dinner. The next morning, we took the opportunity to walk up to the lighthouse in the cool of the morning. It was a great 2 1/2 hour round trip, walking up through bushland and along the headland ridge top with great views to the north and south, and back by the shorter route along the beach. After the walk, we had a late breakfast in our kitchenette equipped unit before hitting the road again. Overall, a great location for a stopover.
