A holiday to remember for sure
Pros:

Location: Proximity and access to the beach was awesome with a private exit via a reserve. Walks along the beach in both directions were great and with cafes at both ends.
Comfort: spacious interior with all essentials catered for and comfy furniture
Amenities: cafe just outside, full kitchen and laundry, towels a plenty, and personal plunge pool which kept the kids and grown ups entertained for hours!

Cons:

Nothing not to like

Definitely a 10
Pros:

This was excellent every way. A lot of highly rated properties are nice, but have some flaws. They probably only deserve a nine or eight, but the people are so nice and work so hard, that you give them a 10. This place really has no flaws. Clean, safe location, good parking, well stocked kitchen, washer/dryer, good shower water pressure, even got us in early. Maybe the roof top hot tub could be a little hotter and the pool was a little underwhelming compared to the photos, but that’s being very picky. I’ve stayed in over100 booking locations around the world and this is a top 10 because of its overall quality.

Cons:

Nothing

A fabulous stay. Highly recommend for a weekend getaway or longer stay.
Pros:

Location, spaciousness, amenities and the set up of the apartment. Staff were fabulous.

Cons:

The pillows. The single beds (3/4 would be fabulous). The tv & remote were troublesome.

Pros:

Perfect place to relax. Massive apartments that are well presented and always exceptionally clean. We have returned again and again and are never disappointed. Great views of Mt Coolum from most apartments and sea views from the roof top. Easy access to the beach. Short drive to the supermarket and other amenities or easy walk to the surf club for sunset drinks!

Cons:

Nothing

Super convenient and perfect in every way!
Pros:

Location, gated access to carpark and beach amazing. Cannot stress how amazing this is when you have children rather than dealing with lifts and basement parking, whip was available but not needed for this stay. Loved the private pool it meant the kids had their own space could play uninterrupted whilst we could relax whilst still keeping an eye!!

Cons:

Lights for pool came on too late at night, after 7 which meant the children couldn’t play safely in the pool as long as they would have liked. They should ideally come out around 5.30pm 6 latest.

That I had an oil leak in the car park (so sorry!)

Pros:

We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this place for families. The three bedrooms were all spacious and well-shaped, making the layout very comfortable and practical to use. The apartment was beautifully renovated and well presented throughout.

The location was excellent — just an easy walk to the beach, which made it perfect for a relaxing family getaway and spending quality time together.

The upstairs spa was also a fantastic bonus and really added something special to the trip.

Thank you again for your hospitality. We truly enjoyed our stay.

Pros:

The apartment is situated in a serene location. Very quiet and calm surrounding just minutes away from the beach and beautiful views.
You can hear the sound of waves.
Had a private spa area but the pool and shared facilities is just as great.
The apartment has everything you need, well equipped and clean. Easy check in and check out process.

Amazing Apartment
Pros:

Beautiful apartment, great location, beds were comfortable, view of Mount Coolum is beautiful. The beach is very close and a short walk up a boardwalked path. There's a small playground across the road and a coffee shop too. The apartment is modern, clean and quiet.

Cons:

Everything was great. Maybe another roll of toilet paper or an extra rubbish bag would have been nice but it was a great place to stay.

Pros:

Hands down the best apartment I’ve stayed in on the coast for a long time. Large spaces, amazing views of Mt Coolum and the beach just through the trees. We could hear the waves from the large balcony. And the top deck pool and heated spa was amazing as the sun set!
