Family reunion for 11 loved the comfort and spaciousness of our 3 apartments.
Pros:

Comfort and cleanliness were tops at Apartments on the Bay. the position is quiet. The inclusions in the room satisfied our needs to eat as a family and cook meals and cake. The apartment layout was modern and open spaced lounge/dining and kitchen with plenty of room to move about freely.

Lovely apartment option to stay on Bribie, with great location and views.
Pros:

We booked 2 units. Great location. Very nice units. Lovely views of the passage from balcony of higher level apartment and the standard apartment had no view but balcony was much larger. All expected amenities like laundry and full kitchen, aircon etc. Undercover secure parking. Wifi and netflix etc. Bottle of wine in fridge.

Cons:

Everything was to a very good standard. Only small negative was bathrooms a bit dated - standard apartment ensuite has very old showerhead with limited holes open to water flow. Pool closed 6.30 pm which is early for warm weather. Otherwise all was good.
