A great place to stay

We really liked this massive apartment. It has board games, a full laundry etc. Very clean and well kept and a lovely quiet place to sleep in walking distance to nice areas and a short Uber to SeaWorld etc. My only concern was that the pool was closed for repair, which was a bit disappointing and I think could have been communicated prior and perhaps a discount offered. Having a pool is kind of a quintessential part of a holiday on the Goldcoast but there is a very close beach and park so still plenty of outdoor fun to be had.

There are two GREAT things about this property: the views and the location. The property is immediately opposite the beach and we had outstanding panoramic views of the whales splashing just offshore, north up to Seaworld, south down Main Beach and south-west across the broader region. The property is immediately across the road from the surf club, which had a nice bistro. It's within easy walking distance of all the nice restaurants on Tedder St and an easy drive to the theme parks. The unit we were in (Unit 100 on the 25th floor) had the original 1970s kitchen and bathrooms and a mish-mash of furniture but most of the appliances had been updated and everything worked. Basement parking in our allocated space was also easy. My only complaint was that the unit above us was being renovated, which we weren't warned about when we booked the apartment, and the construction noise during the early morning and day was terrible. The renovations had finished by the time we left so I expect this was a short-term problem but it was disappointing that nobody warned us so we could have organised our out-of-the-apartment days around the noise.

Overall an excellent accommodation has all and more amenities needed, loved the pool, spa and sauna. The only thing was the couch needs upgrading or washing. Amazing experience and lots of nice memories

Stayed in a 2 bedroom budget unit. View was superb and the unit was spacious, however it does only have aircon in the living area and no ceiling fans. This could be a problem in summer. Although the decor of the unit is dated, the view from the 25th floor makes up for it.
