We came up from Sydney for a relaxing time. Had that and more. Quiet and spectacular views from our large balcony of the river,Southport and Surfers. Can't recommend it more highly.

Budds Beach is beautifully calm, with white sand - perfect for our family. Bumbles Cafe - one of the best cafés we found in Surfers – is just along the road, opposite the beach and the... More

We are a family of 4 and first stayed at Spectrum in April 2009. We stayed for a week and had a two bedroom, two bathroom apartment and we couldn't have been more pleased with the cleanliness and facilities. The kids love the tennis and pool. Spectrum is within walking distance to shops, restaurants, pubs and bars. Easy access to... More

Sorry to hear that this guest was disappointed with their apartment. Yes, the apartment does need some newer furnishings and is a little tired, but in this economy climate, owners have not had the extra monies to spend on their apartments. Even though the apartment is tired, I can assure guests that our apartments are clean and comfortable. The apartment... More

Stayed at Spectrum Apartments at Budds Beach recently. Really lovely grounds, and the apartments are spotless. Great location and close to Bumbles Restaurant - great food especially brekkies. Lovely views of the river and across to Suerfers. Price was really good - 7th night free deal on $140 a night for a full 2 bedder.....great value.

We had a lovely stay. The building was well maintained for it's age. The grounds and facilities were kept very clean and well cared for. Our unit was most comfortable. We stayed in a 2 bedroom superior apartment, which had everything we needed in a self-contained apartment. The view of the river from the large balcony was fabulous, something different... More
