Communication with Reception Manager was prompt and informative. Beautiful resort style complex with a great pool and spa. Walking track along the river is just out front with lots of dining options as well. The room was spacious and had everything you need. Free bus in to Hastings street, 9mins, during school holidays was a bonus as parking difficult in Noosa its self. Under Cover secure parking was perfect, all be it a little tight, kept car cool on the hot summer days. Only grievance was that we would have loved extra towels with cost or more washing powder to wash the one towel each over 3 days. This was definitely over shadowed by how perfect everything else was.

Really liked the property, studio apartment very small though. Ok for our short visit, however really missed having no sink for dishes. Also missed having a balcony or outside door opening - felt a bit hot and small.

A good and affordable place to stay in Noosa. Rooms are small but functional, WiFi very good. Blinds let in a bit too much light, outside lights left on all night, could be turned off.

We stayed in a studio apartment that had just been refurbished. It was bright and clean and had everything we needed. The pool area was fabulous and so was the location, with an amazing breakfast/lunch place on its doorstep (Depot). A great place to stay.

Proximity to river & near by restaurants is perfect. We had the last available 'studio' room, dark, small & outdated, the other rooms were probably far superior.

No to Studio
I was quite horrified by the size of the studio apartment and would never book that room again, even if I was by myself. The complex is in a wonderful location, with a beautiful garden and pool setting. The lift makes life easy. Colonial Resort is worth a stay but not in their one and only studio unit.

Thanks Richard for your honest feedback, we did see your face, when you saw how tiny the studio room is, that is why we tried our best to upgrade you, however sadly as you are aware we were fully booked. We do try our best to explain that the studio room is just a room with a king size bed & an ensuite. We advertise the room as hotel style where guests can avail themselves to full kitchen facilities & BBQ’s adjacent to the pool, however they are often seen cavorting & frolicking around Noosa’s beautiful environment & in the award winning restaurants & cafes. Typically, guests have fun filled days & enjoy the facilities of the resort. We are pleased you did enjoy the resort, and we will welcome you back to one of our large apartments with an awesome pool or water view.

We were told to collect our keys from the restaurant downstairs to check in at lunchtime as the reception area was closed but they weren’t there when we arrived so we had to phone and wait for our key. We weren’t given any literature or pamphlet or email in regards to the amenities. I tried to access the gym in the afternoon of the first day and again in the next morning but it was locked both times so had to phone again only to be told we needed another key for this which we should have known about in the information pack which we never received. Later that day we used the spa only to discover it wasn’t operating. Our shower screen didn’t shut as it dragged along the tiled floor before jamming ajar causing the bathroom floor to flood when we showered. Was not told how to self check out when we left and had to phone again. Would not recommend and won’t be back.

Thanks so much for your feedback which we welcome and take seriously. We are sad you didn’t have a great experience. Most of our guests are thrilled to begin their holiday early (you originally advised 9am Saturday arrival) and not have to wait till the 2pm check-in time. Not sure how you missed the after-hours email advice the day prior to your arrival with full instruction’s but we had them printed for you with the key in your envelope which you collected. You may have also overlooked the laminated copy in your room. We had hoped our 2 phone calls to you at 9am and 11am on your day of arrival would also have been of assistance. Our office was open the next morning where you could have picked up the gym key or you may have chosen to avail yourself at any time to the external contact phone at reception which invites to contact the managers in need. We would have loved you to have used that after hours service re the shower door which was closing properly prior to your arrival and had it adjusted straight away to avoid any potential damage or danger. Most of all we would have loved you to have had a wonderful experience like so many of our great guests do.

Close to restaurants and just across the road from the Noosa river. Good rate for the location. Carpark at the rear of property a bit of a walk and lift to the room on the 1st floor. Room small and had a king size bed which took up most of the bedroom area. It was tight for 1 person so would have been too small for 2 people. Fairly quiet environment. Helpful staff.
