A good getaway to enjoy time with the family.
Pros:

The apartment itself was pretty nice and spacious for our family of 5. The location was great in being close to the strand and other locations. Everything was pretty easy and smooth. The staff were nice too.

Cons:

It's good to have an underground carpark, especially when It was raining, but the entry and exit of the carpark needs work.

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.
