Loved our stay here. Be aware there is no bar or restaurant but it is in walking distance of the main strip. Loved the way they made it clear what to expect with the servicing of your room. Communication was excellent and reception staff were very friendly and knowledgeable

We booked a 2 bedroom standard apartment for 9 nights with a family of 4. We were extremely impressed by the tidiness and size of the pool, grounds and location. The standard 2 bedroom apartment serviced our needs and requirements during our stay and it was much larger than we expected which was pleasing. We loved that the apartment had cooking facilities, a large fridge, dishwasher, a washing machine and dryer, plus 2 bathrooms with 3 girls is a big bonus. The balcony had a great view of the pool and beach. The pool looks awesome at night with the blue light lit up and even encouraged me for a swim before it closed. The standard appartments are quite dated in the bathrooms mainly and could use some attention such a fresh coat of paint where paint is cracking and broken fixtures replaced or removed, however saying this we did expect this reading previous reviews and it wasn’t a big deal for us or we would have booked a superior apartment which are renovated. When we first arrived the kids had fun looking at the tourist board provided by Coral Sands Beach Resort and taking pamphlets of trips they wished to go on and sites to see and I was happy that the facility included car parking for our rental car with easy access from the car park to our apartment. On our last night we had dinner at the onsite Italian restaurant which was delicious. Trinity Beach is a wonderful and pretty location and we were just so happy that we chose Coral Sands Beach Resort for our accommodation.
