    Great location with beach out the front of the resort with walking paths in both directions along the Beachfront.The pool was clean & beautiful surroundings would definitely stay here again.Highly recommend this place.

    Nothing apart from the stairs to get to the apartment with luggage.

    7SheemaPosted on: 2-13-2026

    Close to beach, shopping facilities and activities. The swimming pool and the BBQ was excellent.

    Everything was great though our room was next to the road and the restaurant's. In the evening, we could hear lots of noise coming in to the to house

    1BriPosted on: 2-11-2026

    The location and pool were great.

    The rooms were extremely dirty. It was obvious they had not been cleaned for some time. The floors were so filthy we needed to wear socks to avoid having dirty feet. The bathrooms were very dirty and showers were completely covered in mould. Air conditioning barely worked our rooms were boiling hot and had an odour. We had to purchase supplies such as toilet paper and use the same towels for our 6 night stay as there is no house keeping.

    7LeanePosted on: 2-10-2026

    Excellent position and very comfortable unit. Staff were lovely

    I was unlucky enough to have noisy children in the unit above me. I also thought the unit was rather "jaded".I had asked for a higher level unit but was on the ground floor which I was a little worried about being on my own.

    10KeziahPosted on: 2-9-2026

    Perfect location. Loved the pool and proximity to the beach. Rooms were clean and spacious.

    Only down side was the lack of supplies. One dishwasher sachet, one roll of toilet paper and no pool towels.

    9ChristianPosted on: 2-7-2026

    Nice place and people. Great location on the beach front. Some good specials at the local pub next door too.

    10StaceyPosted on: 2-6-2026

    Location was perfect, walk right onto the beach and flags nearby. Flat walking track right in front of the accommodation and beautiful beachside walks north and south. Multitude of options to eat/drink either walking distance or a quick drive. Lovely pool/spa. Room was clean and well equipped. Air con in the living area only but fans in the rooms worked well. Undercover parking underneath.

    Definitely isn’t disability accessible, even the ground floor rooms have stairs to navigate and no lifts. Wasn’t an issue for us but worth being aware of.

    9LauraPosted on: 2-5-2026

    Lovely atmosphere and location

    Expensive and some problems with keys etc

    10TamaraPosted on: 2-5-2026

    Wrote a review last time we stayed. Stayed there 3 weeks earlier. Location, value, absolute beachfront. Really good value for a family

    10BrookePosted on: 2-4-2026

    We loved the absolute beachfront location, with easy access to patrolled flags and nearby surf clubs. The property is within walking distance to shops, cafés and restaurants, and having a bus stop close by made getting around very convenient. The facilities were excellent, especially the clean and well-maintained pool, and we appreciated the secure parking and overall cleanliness of the resort.

    There wasn’t anything major we disliked. If anything, the only downside was having to leave!

    10CraigPosted on: 2-3-2026

    Great location close to the beach, cafes, airport, hire cars.

    Location

    Old, run down and things broke everyday

    8MariaPosted on: 1-27-2026

    Loved the location, it was incredible having the beach at our doorstep, kids had so much fun! the pool was great and it was handy to have IGA and pubs all withing walking distance, would stay here again

    It was really tricky finding our appartment initially, gym needs improvement, there is a hole in the ceiling.

    10DhaniPosted on: 1-25-2026

    Location was perfect, absolute beach front views, walk out the front door to swim and surf in front of the surf life saving flags, cafes and restaurants next door, large swimming pool and spa, well equipped modern apartment. Couldn’t ask for a better place to holiday
