Stayed here recently with friends in a 2 brm, 2 bathroom appartment. The location is good if you don't want to drive as shops & restaurants are walking distance. However, it doesn't really feel like a beach holiday as there are no views of the beach from the propoerty, as it is across a main road & then there are... More

Thank you for providing feedback about your recent stay with us. We always appreciate hearing about how we can improve on the service we provide. With regards to our location, we are very careful not to advertise as being located right on the beach, or having beach views. All resorts in Coolum are located across the road from the beach...

Place met my expectations - clean and well-presented. Reception was courteous and quite helpful. I liked the location because of closeness to shops and could walk without having to rely on transport. Would recommend.

Thank you for your review of our resort. I was disappointed to read your review - especially when our resort has been recommended to you. Our ground floor apartments can be darker than others on the upper floors, however some people with young children do prefer these apartments due to the easily accessible enclosed courtyard. Obviously this was not so... More
