Big apartment for just 2 people, however it was much cheaper than much much smaller ones around.
Pros:

The view of the ocean and Magnetic Island was amazing.
We could walk to the pool from our balcony as we were on the ground floor.

Cons:

The common area spa bath was not the best. The jets only dribbled bubbles out, however the temperature was quite good for the hot climate.

Overall - really great, few minor hiccups.
Pros:

Location, spaciousness, facilities - all great

Cons:

When there was 5 families all staying at Mariners and the key/swipe card system for the lifts etc - only allowing you to the floor you are on. Made it difficult for kids to see one another and also when we only had one working swipe card for our room.

Fantastic location, great amenities.
Pros:

Fantastic location, generous sized living space and full functional kitchen.

Cons:

Beds were a little soft and the furniture a little dated and not well set up. Wardrobes not fitted out with shelving or appropriate storage for suitcases. Need to update bathroom fittings, specifically shower heads. Spa could benefit from being a few degrees warmer.
