The view from the beach front room was beautiful. However you enter the apartment to a view of a pocky little room with two single beds with a very dated look and an overpowering stale odour. Once you enter the adult suite you are faced with old doona cover that is crumpled and the open side with the inner doona spewing out. Also you couldn’t get rid of the odour. If you think your going to have a peaceful sleep forget it as the split system is extremely noisy and turns on and off all night with climate control. This was our first night away for a very long time and the Waves was so disappointing I wanted to go home before the end of the night!
We enjoyed our stay at The Waves Apartments. The apartment is on a good location and our room had a good view. The room given to us was also good enough for a family of 3. Our toddler was able to walk around the room and enjoy :) Will definitely stay here again the next time we're back at Phillip Island.
This trip was our first post lockdown and didn’t disappoint. The Waves Apartments are conveniently placed near the beach, shops and playground. Our room was clean, organised and accomodating. Would definitely book again. The kids loved it here… there were tears when it was time to leave!
We stayed at the Waves for 3 nights and it was a perfect stay. In an amazing location looking out to the beach and a 2 minute walk to the main strip, could not get a better location. It was so clean and tidy absolutely immaculate it looked clean and even little things like the doonas smelt clean. I would more recommend to smaller families so 3 or less children otherwise it might get a bit snug. Staff was very friendly as well and car parking is provided that is safe and secure. Cooking wise there is a stove top and a pan, not a very good pan more aiming for patrons to go out and support the community. There is free WIFI there too, worked like a treat.
Terrific location, right on the water and only a 5 minute walk to the Main Street on the Island. The service is excellent, they assisted us with late checkout and were helpful throughout the booking process. The rooms are spacious and relatively modern, this is a good place for families with multiple beds and lots of room. Highly recommend.
we stayed at the waves apartment for a long weekend break and to celebrate our anniversary. we booked a front beach apartment the views were wonderful got to see the ocean and beach from the bed. the apartment was very clean enough crockery for everything u needed. mind u found the breakfast cereal dishes to be abit small in size. found it a little weird having bunk and single bed in the kitchen area but that didn't bother us as it was just me and my husband. the place was very clean:) loved sitting on the balcony people watching. even being opposite the road was good as im a light sleeper but didn't seem much traffic. we loved the use of the jetted bath. it was in easy reach of the main st. lovely shops and plenty of places to eat. the phone lines and it appears email system was down before we went as i couldn't contact anyone it was by sheer luck i found a mobile number to call on the f.b to check our reservation. the lady that checked us in seemed abit flustered because of this issue. didn't even wish us happy anniversary. we found some people very inconsiderate with parking in the above car park with taking too many lanes for their vehicle but that wasn't the fault of the apartment just the guest.. we would defiantly stay again.…
Truly a gem at Phillip Island. It's near the beach, near the center and all. It's tidy, well-lit. I didn’t use their free wifi, so I am not sure if it was fast enough. The room was spacious and their staff was friendly. We will definitely stay again and recommend it. =)
When we first arrived we loved the place, lovely room and loved the views. A major let down is guests are allowed to smoke on their balcony, so whilst I was trying to enjoy the lovely view I had to choke on the neighbours non stop smoke 😡 eventually having to stay inside and only get on the balcony when they were not around. Really ruined it for us. Won't be back and will definitely investigate further with future accomodation.
I have stayed at this hotel many times and customer service is usually good. Today I went to book and asked what would happen if we were to go in to lock down and not be able to stay. Apparently I would lose the amount I would need to pay if for some reason with the covid virus that we went into lock down and couldn't go. I had said I was happy to pay and if we couldn't go maybe we could receive a credit for the lost money but still no. I think this is really unfair and not good customer service at all. I wasn't asking for a refund I was 100% ready to stay if I could but no leniency whatsoever. It's a shame as I have told many friends and family about this place but won't be in the future. Disappointing
