Disappointed only 1 pool was open. Spa bath shower was hard to get into and out of without a rail. Other than that great place to stay

The apartment was clean and well appointed but the 2nd bedroom was quite small. The pool areas really needs shade so that families can enjoy it during the day.

Really lovely staff & very clean. Sadly traffic & street noise so loud (even from 6th floor) it was unpleasant, no air con in bedrooms which made it very stuffy & hot.

left disappointed about property amenities!
Check in was pleasing and felt genuine. The information about the property is deceiving, it says an outdoor tennis court, when in fact it is a half court! There was no information on the property when booking to indicate the roof top pool was closed due to Covid, aswell as the games room which my family were really looking forward to playing table tennis etc.

so good we booked again!!
We arrived Saturday on a long weekend. Check-in was a smooth process, $200 was deducted from CC as a bond. It will be refunded in 2-4 weeks. Although no underground car parks available as it was full, we found street parking to be freely available and we were happy to continue to park on the street during the rest of our stay. Beach a short 2 minute stroll away. Lots of cafes & restaurants in the street below. Resort was immaculate, we regularly bumped into the caretaker who was always cleaning windows & doors, bbq area, paths etc. The rooftop bbq area, pool & spa were amazing. As was the pool & tennis court on level 1. Room itself was very nice, much better than we expected considering the price. We even had a spa in our ensuite. Booked 2 bed apartment as we were family of 5. Plenty of space, kitchen was tidy & well supplied for self catering & bbq tools. We loved the laundry in bathroom, a nice touch. Bin chute on each level made cleaning our room much easier. We were able to borrow cards, movies & colouring in stuff from the front desk as long as it was returned, and the kids enjoyed the games room too. Woollies less than a block away for supplies too. Perfect location, amazing resort and fantastic amenities. We just loved everything about our stay. 3 nights wasn't long enough.

The rooms were very hot and only the lounge had air con (which we couldn't use as it stunk). One of the more elderly ladies at the front desk was very rude and unhappy always and should not be in her job. Else it was good.

The property is centrally located. Very close to beach, groceries, restaurants. We had a large 2 bedroom unit with all amenities. Very impressed with this hotel and even more so with the staff. With an early morning flight they let us check in early and gave us a late checkout and then minded bags whilst we waited for our late flight. Will definitely visit again!

Nice hotel, close to the beach
This hotel was walkable to everything, very handy. Comfortable and clean, except for the cockroach we saw - but we were told by a local there that is fairly normal to have cockroaches close to the beach. I would stay there again.

Well priced hotel in a good location
We enjoyed our stay at this hotel and would visit again. Although parts of the hotel decor are a little dated, we were impressed with the interior of the actual rooms and their cleanliness. They had everything we needed and great staff who were friendly and happy to give any assistance. The location is great, a short walk to restaurants, shops and the beach. It is set one street back from the main street which was good as it was a little quieter. We would definitely book again, great value for money.

Great location, near lots of restaurants, massage
Near restaurants, massage etc beach close by. Free use of bikes for the whole family was amazing. Roof top has a great view, pool and spa. Has sauna and games room. Try and request higher rooms if you want ocean view as lower rooms look onto street as another hotel in front blocking view. Room was very clean and had everything you need. Also main room had big corner spa which was a bonus. Fabulous location would recommend.

A bit noisy.
The room I had was on a lower floor and had quite a lot of street noise in the early hours as people left clubs etc. I was awoken numerous times throughout my stay. In addition one of the two lifts was not working which made it a long task to get from the room to the ground floor. Many times the only functioning lift was full of weary families returning from the beach etc. who had travelled from the ground floor to the basement in an attempt to get up to their floor, having also met new arrivals in the basement desperate to get to reception.

views were great from 7th floor and above. the roof top bbq area was lovely but difficult to stay long there or in the pool as the noise from the industrial air conditioning was deafening! still it was a good central location and coolangatta was great and chilled for young families and seniors too.
