Interiors no doubt vary according to ownership. 804 was a bit tired. I hadn't registered that it was unserviced which wasn't a problem once we clicked. But low in supplies...ran out of loo paper first day. No bath mats, facecloths, pool/beach towels. A good clean out of cupboards etc may make things feel fresher. Felt like moving the furnishings around... More

important note: this is NOT a SERVICED apartment, so be prepared to wash your own towels, change your own linen etc. bring extra laundry powder and dishwashing liquid (they only provide 1 tiny pack of each) if you are staying more than 2-3 days. also, bring your own bedroom slippers if you dun like stepping on old carpeted room floors...

Thanks very much, a great stay. Friendly helpful staff who couldn't do enough to help us. We asked for a lower level room with aircon and that's what we got. Right on the beach, great parks and playground close by. Loved the location, close to all the theme parks. Only downside is there is no shallow pool for our 4... More

We absolutely LOVED our week away! We will definately be staying here again. The resident managers were extremely friendly and made us feel very welcome. The apartment was amazing looking straight down the beach and the decor was beautiful. It had a brand new kitchen and very smart decor. Very welcoming indeed. It is really close to Tedder Avenue and... More

This was an amazing apartment very big with the most incredible views. It was well furnished. It is a very quiet area. The pool and spa are wonderful and there is a lovely bbq area. Parking is great and access easy. The staff were very welcoming.

The beachfront location was perfect for us as we love Main Beach and Tedder Avenue. The apartment had great views and was well set up. One thing that doesn't quite work is that the beds are on wheels on tiles and they slide around a lot. Our room also had very light window coverings so we were up very early... More

A great place to relax and unwind, we had a north facing apartment, overlooking the beach. The apartment was clean and tidy. There is a great swimming pool with a spa just in case you don't want to swim on the beach. The host was brilliant and she gave us excellent advice and had great knowledge of the area. We... More
