Pros:

Good location and price

Cons:

Not very generous with consumables (eg 5 coffee sachets for 4 people and 3 nights), dishes were a bit dirty. Dodgy wiring on bedroom lights/fans?

Pros:

Fantastic location and great pool/bbq area.
Just across the road from a beautiful park and walking area.
Short drive to Harbour Town and theme parks in one direction, and Australia Fair, Surfers and Broadbeach in the other direction.

Cons:

Our apartment was nice and clean, apart from the bedrooms, which needed a good dust and vacuum.

Pros:

Reception staff were fantastic

Cons:

The worst showers I've ever seen. May only be the apartment we were in, but the shower on full blast was a trickle of water. We could not wash our hair as the water wouldn't wash out the shampoo. Could be just needing new shower heads or could be a bigger problem. I dont know.
Everything was run down In the apartment doors all damaged, everything warn to a point it just looks dirty. Hairs left all over the sink after the cleaners had been. Just not up to a nice standard
Good sized apartment lovely pool area, but needs some up keep and care put into it.

Pros:

We liked the apartment, our children loved the pool. I also like the late pool hours for a beautiful night swim under blue lights 💙

Cons:

That our washing machine and dryer wasn't working in the apartment but the reception were accommodating and offered the main one to use during our stay. We just hand washed but the staff still were helpful

Unit needs TLC and attention to detail to make it comfortable and safe .
Pros:

Location was central to everything.
Spacious unit
Pool area nice / view nice enough
Ceiling fans and air conditioning in some rooms
Washing machine, drier, oven & microwave all worked.
Secure and undercover parking
It could be a great unit if someone looked after it. You expect the guests to look after your accommodation - guests should expect functioning and safe accomodation in return at the bare minimum.

Cons:

Unit 32C is a 3 bedroom upstairs unit. It could be lovely if the owner paid attention to damage throughout the unit that has been neglected and left to deteriorate.
1. Hole in the wall where the toilet roll should go - upstairs bathroom covered with a stick on piece of silver card with a plastic toilet holder attached that would not stay on. (Forgot to take a photo of this). Just laying on the floor with hole exposed!
2. Hinges off kitchen cupboard doors. Doors half hanging off.
3. Leather lounge covered in dirty looking covers because one of the lounges has been ripped and unable to sit on.
4. Hairdryer in main bathroom nearly electrocuted my daughter. Threw sparks and smoke out when she turned it on.
5. Light in fridge does not work. Attempted to vacuum but the vacuum does not provide enough suction, iron is old!!!
6. Not enough cutlery and plates for a large family.
7. Bedroom light stopped working on last night of our stay.
8. No furnishings apart from basics. Empty unit. Very echoey.
9. Can feel the springs through the mattress when sleeping.
10. Dirty & cracked bowls in cupboards.
11. Upstairs toilet constantly ran.

These problems could be fixed easily and relatively inexpensively. When paying good money for accomodation , surely guests should expect and receive a safe and comfortable environment.
Very disappointed. Holes in walls and cupboards falling off are unsafe for children. Faulty hair dryers and electrical appliances are dangerous!! Please fix these things for future guests. There are many O H & S issues in this unit!

The facilities are good however the undesirables that gather in the park opposite make it uncomforta
Pros:

Location was pretty good for our travel to a futsal tournament at Mt Warren. The setting on the Broadwater is ideal with some great restaurants located nearby. The pool was also fantastic.

Cons:

Our apartment overlooked the park and Broadwater. Whilst the view was great, every afternoon and night there were 3 to 5 undesirables that camped out in the car park near the reserve amenities block/BBQ facilities directly opposite. They were obviously drug and/or alcohol effected and would yell, scream and fight with each other throughout the night making it difficult to sleep. Police and/or Council really need to move these grubs on from this tourist location. Adding to the discomfort, was the regular trail bikes and other loud motorcycles racing up and down Marine Parade at all hours of the night and early morning. We had to keep the slide glass door closed to hear the television.

We were disappointed.
Pros:

The Location was good. The pool was good and well maintained.

Cons:

We stayed on the 3rd floor and there was no hot water pressure, so you couldn't have warm / hot showers. The beds and furniture in the apartment were old and uncomfortable.
