The unit is small, only suitable for a couple, good position, clean. Older building but renovated flat. Terrible parking spot, need to reverse in or you wont get out.…

The park itself is amazing. Located right across from the beach - full of friendly holidaying families enjoying their vacays. Beware some of the cabins are OLD and you may find a few surprises in them! Our surprises were: vomit looking stain on the lounge, only the kitchen taps worked well - bathroom, toilet and shower in particular were all besotted with issues, pest issues - ants in the loo and roaches out at night.…The park itself is amazing.

As for location, it was perfect. Walk to the beach and coffee shops. But the process to get the keys and return the key was terrible. needing to get apps and passwords and lock boxes that refused to open inside a container in a non decrepit location. The unit itself was clean but aged, needing some repair work. The process to check in and check out through this complicated and frustrating process means that i will not be staying with any location managed by this company again.…As for location, it was perfect.

Disappointing service, stunning view of the bay!…

We had a huge drama with the check in process. We were collecting keys for a friends apartment and were told they were at the office but ours were at a shipping container collection point at Anna Bay, with many people stuck unable to access the app to open the code to unlock their box with keys. So we had to go to 2 collection points for keys. We then were only given 1 set of keys for 2 couples (keys also required to be left in room for air con and lights but yet are needed for the lift at the same time so all 4 people had to go everywhere together). We were given towels however no floor mats for the shower. Incredible view from the balcony, 180 degree views of shoal bay. Living area was large and comfortable. However you are unable to key lock the balcony doors so if there are kids there they could just unlock it constantly and go out onto the balcony that has furniture next to the railing, with an 8 storey drop to the ground. Average service for this apartment however we still had a nice time. …We had a huge drama with the check in process.
