We stayed two nights for sad reasons so enjoyed being able to just cross the road for a walk on the beach and watch sun
Pros:

The view, location, large apartment, number 10.

Cons:

Having to drive to Pialba to pick up & drop key. Being told be out by 10am and drop off key by 10.15am 3 kilometres away. What if I didn’t drive?? key safe at the property would be much better.
The very high bath you had to climb in to shower. The ensuite shower was fine.
Very squishy parking in garage.

Great spot. Would definitely stay here again.
Pros:

Excellent location, close to shops and restaurants, just across the road from the beach and with great views!
We stayed in apartment 13. Cannot fault this place at all. Spacious apartment with everything we needed, and a lovely balcony.
The trolleys for you to take your gear up to your room in the lift was a fantastic idea and very helpful!
The pool was fantastic! Met some lovely people there too. Very comfortable and clean.
Undercover secure parking was also very good.

Cons:

Nothing.

Loved it! Super comfortable for my mother and I for a 5 day stay! We were sorry to have to leave.
Pros:

Perfect location - near shops, but far enough away that the noise was minimal. Beautiful water views too. Well tended garden and pool areas.

Cons:

Could use a little TLC in the halls.
