Pros:

It was close to restaurants! Main room didn’t have a working light and fan. Reception staff and maintenance was straight onto it and we had a new fan installed

Cons:

The lift wasn’t working and had to walk through carport and behind peoples units as main pool gate wasn’t working for visitors, but worked for staff cleaning the pool.

Great stay aside from the work and confusion trying to access the walkway water side to restaurants
Pros:

Proximity to restaurants and convenient location also asked for a quiet room and it was

Cons:

The renovations around the broadwalk area and pool found it very difficult to navigate out onto the Broadwalk to access the restaurants -no signs at all to help guests at all. Other guests I passed in my travels sloffered for me to walk through their room front door to back sliding door to access the boardwalk as they had the same difficulty!

Cons:

Má comunicação (não sabíamos se íamos chegar a tempo de apanhar a receção aberta que fecha às 21h, enviámos mensagem a perguntar se daria para fazer self check in, nunca responderam). Quarto datado e com forte cheiro a humidade. Varanda espaçosa mas com máquina de ar condicionado a ocupar metade do espaço ferrugenta e com fita cola. Pediram uma caução de 200 AUD por 1 noite (parece-me excessivo face às condições do alojamento).

Just terrible
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Everything else. When we arrived they advised the lifts were out and we were booked in on the 5th floor. The person on desk said we tried to call you twice. I did not received any calls and no messages were left. The person said we can try and find a lower floor but didn’t attempt to find a lower floor. We then just accepted this and we walked up 5 flights of stairs. We then tried our key and they didn’t work. We had to call reception to advise. Had to google there number as this was not on the information sheet. The person then came up and checked and yes the keys did not work. It was just not a nice experience and it was my birthday. My husband is in extreme pain and they didn’t care

Pros:

Staff were great. Room clean

Cons:

Verandah was way to small and the air conditioning unit sat over the table on wall on verandah which made it very hot and uncomfortable. Requested fresh linen when placed in room used linen was not removed and rubbish bag not emptied. Was left at doorway for collection.

2 star stay for a 4 star price. Do better
Pros:

The location was great

Cons:

The room is desperately in need of an update - a bathroom that takes up a third of the room space. No kitchenette - bad coffee facilities does not count. Get rid of the spa bath and reconfigure the whole layout

Dissapointing
Pros:

The location and views of the marina are very good.

Cons:

This place is getting tired. We have used this property several times over the years, but now it’s run down. Pool gates were out of order. Access to the boardwalk was blocked off. There are orange water cones marking hazards in several locations etc. One of the pools was out of order. A room refresh is overdue.

Nice place
Pros:

The room was nice . Good outlook. The staff were great.

Cons:

As I paid for a Self Contained Room I thought I would have a bigger fridge than my Caravan has.. it was ony a little Bar fridge.. Hardly enough room to put your supplies in . . Other places I've stayed at were better equipped.
