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.
What a great place , spotless accommodation and kitchen was very well equipped . Bedroom was comfortable and had aircon in room . Sitting in the large lounge dining area we were able to hear the waves crashing on the beach. A nice clean pool and spa was available to patrons . All in all a very good place to visit with an excellent place to stay Thankyou we enjoyed our stay in Coolum immensely

A second visit to these apartments didn't disappoint. Lovely pool spacious apartment with flexibility for our third child! Great location across the road from the beach and a short walk to the shops out if the crowds of the rest of the Sunshine Coast top spot we will be back!

The special August rates were reasonable but we were disappointed that the pool which was advertised as being heated, was very cold. According to one of the other guests, the pool heating had been broken down for over 3 weeks! It would be a good idea to ring first to find out if the heating is in working order. There were also a few minor problems with the accommodation itself, but it was an enjoyable stay overall.

I have recently booked a 2 x night stay at Pandanus Coolum Beach. The booking process was fairly easy and went through without any hick ups or issues. I even received a booking confirmation number.
What happened next was actually stunning and I still can't understand how they can run a business this way.
The day after I made the booking I received a phone call from the hotel saying that they will not honor the booking as they don't allow 2 x night stays and that they accidentally put the wrong amount on the add for the accommodation. instead of the $220 per night it is something like $350 or $400.
What really got me was the attitude of the hotel. They asked me if I seriously think that this was the correct amount as nothing else in the region asks that for accommodation?
This totally stunned me as not only did they go back on the confirmed booking but they also made out that I was wrong to book it in the first place.
I will be taking this further with the Travel Industry in Australia but also wanted to provide my feedback on here given the utterly poor service from this crowd.

Hi Christiaan, I am sorry you are upset but as explained to you during our call... I rang you about 30 mins after we received notification from a third party booking agent. I advised you that somehow during rectification of software problems we were having you had managed to request a booking from an agent for Christmas day and Boxing day only. This period had a five day minimum and the tariff was substantially dearer as it is the peak season. You advised you understood our situation and would cancel your booking if no money had been taken. You were going to ring the agent. We then received your cancellation. Pandanus Coolum Beach did not at any time send you a confirmation (I rang you to tell you we couldn't) and no money was accepted. We do take 2 night bookings except at Christmas, Easter and September School Holidays. I apologise for the offence you have taken.

Our apartment was spotless and very well equipped. We wanted to chill after a hectic few weeks and this was perfect. Beach across the road back to the pool for a swim, walk to town centre in the boardwalk. Narelle and Ross were great. We were on the top floor and Ross helped my husband with the baggage. Great reacquaintance with Coolum we will definitely recommend. PS the beds are sooooo comfy.

We have just had four weeks at Pandanus Coolum with our families. Our unit was right next to the pool with large balcony which was great for all the grandchildren. The complex is very well run by Steve and Denise who are more than happy to oblige with all requests. Our second Tv in the bed room would not work and Steve very kindly swapped it over for one of their own. We had to move once during our stay which we were always aware of, both units were very well equipped. The units that we were in had no air conditioning which was not really a worry as their always seemed to be a good ocean breeze except for a couple of really hot days. A good place for families and great location.

We enjoyed the best Christmas ever at Pandanus, thanks to the brilliant location (Loads to do and see), the very high standard of accommodation and perfect weather. The key to the sucess of Pandanus is the highly efficient and friendly management couple Steve and Denise. Responsible not only for the immaculate turnout of the resort, they provide a wealth of local knowlege and could not have been more attentive. We enjoyed morning swims in the crystal clear pool every day and trips north and south via a regular bus route. The beach, just a stones throw away, provided the perfect place to watch the sun set with a glass. Highly recommended.

My husband and I had a great three night stay for my birthday. We had a bit of a seaview and a lovely balcony to enjoy. The spacious apartment was exceptional with the most amazing kitchen that had everything you would ever need. Walking distance along the boardwalk into Coolum Beach itself where we dined each night. We would recommend staying here
