Pros +
- room was great with great...
- Everything about our stay was fantastic, love that it's straight across from the beach. Pool and spa was so refreshing and relaxing. Thanks staff
- Great facilities and so close to the beach. Some good restaurants nearby. Beds & pillows were comfortable.
Cons -
- rooms curtains can be better as night arrives so do the outside lights of the property as the curains are only small it turns the room into daylight not good for sleeping
- Only air con in the bedroom, it was quite hot in kitchen lounge area with just the fan and windows can only open slightly so no sea breeze to help
- No air conditioning in the bedrooms, only in the living room. Bedrooms have ceiling fans and they were mostly good enough, but we were lucky that the nights weren't too hot.

location, view of the beach
Road works
Beautiful, clean,
The tv didn’t work in the bedroom, asked for it to be fixed, it wasn’t,
Close to NBSLSCGreat shower pressure
Air conditioning unit too small for size of apartment No way to get a natural breeze through the apartment as seaside windows would not openNo balcony
Convenient to beach
The room was exposed to the mini putt putt so unable to open bedroom curtains
Proximity to the beach and good, clean facilities
Roadworks right outside but that can’t be helped
Clean, nice pool & close to everything
In the 1 bedroom apartments there was only air con in the bedroom, no windows can open so it was boiling in there in the kitchen & lounge area
Great location & excellently equipped kitchen & laundry.
WE loved the location & all the facilities the resort offered. The unit was nicely furnished & had good cooking facilities with a comfortable bed
Unit 87 only had air conditioning in the bedroom & not the living area.
Great resort, awesome facilities & activities for kids. The pool was beautiful & right across the rd from the beach & surf club. There was a games room & a huge DVD library. Underground carpark so great security for your car. Staff were also very polite.
Bedroom at the front of unit & next to the walkway meant it was a bit noisy in the morning but seriously not that bad. A good reason to get up & enjoy the sunshine GC has to offer. Unfortunately one of the lifts was broken & made it a little difficult but staff were doing their best to fix promptly.
Amazing array of facilities like mini golf, play room, multiple pools, spas etc. The room we got was exceptionally large, would be great for a family (two bedroom apartment).
The location, that is it
It was extremely dated. I booked two apartments and I paid the most expensive price for them and they had NO balcony, this and the lights were the worst part of the stay..!!The lights are so bright outside the master bedroom and the blinds you have do not block it out at all, so the bedroom is quite bright throughout the whole night. I have never felt so violated financially paying the price I did for that apartment x 2. The manager has no idea how to talk to customers. Having 2 x apartments booked, I sent an email very early weeks before requesting that if one room could be ready (not both) at approximately 2:30 pm, I got there at 3:30 and nothing was ready, pretty poor that at least one couldn’t be ready
The facilities for children and teenagers were amazing. They have a games room that’s fully equipped to keep everyone entertained.
Lacked good quality places to eat around the outside area.
All staff were excellant, including those working after normal hours
Could not get DVD player to work
The location was great. Right across from the beach and walking distance to Cole’s, chemist, dining venues and more
Close to everything we needed we will return
The sliding doors wire security screens need to be replaced look very dirty
Location, pool table, spaces to relax, not too busy
Lift wasnt working, coffee machine wasnt working, lack of coffee and hot chocolate, spa jets not working, requested high room or room with a view and booked weeks in advance but we were given a low room with no view. We were told to book through bookings but there was no option for us to select high floor with a view.
Close to the beach and exceptional customer service!
Still under construction on the highway in front of the hotel although it doesn't affect accommodation and sleep at night but traffic is a bit annoying.
