Pros:

The venue location is great. It is very close to the beach, public transport was 100m away, secure parking was provided onsite and there were several cafes / food shops close by. The pool, spa area, outdoor facilities and surrounding grounds were very well maintained. Also, the check-in / departure process was very easy and the onsite manager manager was very helpful and pleasant. All the basics were present in the unit. Our king size bed was very comfortable, the single A/C worked well and the front verandah was very pleasant in the mornings.

Cons:

There is no lift in the complex, so we had to carry luggage, groceries etc. up /down to our room on the 3rd floor. The security tag to access the building didn't work and the key to the unit was difficult to use until we worked out which way to hold our tongue (but the manager later fixed this issue). Booking.com is upfront that WiFi isn't available but it would have been good to have. Our disappointment with the venue mainly came from the condition of the unit (36). Without getting into specifics, my partner and I both felt that this is an old unit that could do with some love and attention to make it a much more pleasant place to stay.

Spacious accommodation near beach and tram station.
Pros:

Pool nice and clean and not too cold. Close to beach (five minutes walk) with patrolled lifesaving swim area. We were a party of four and dining seating in the apartment accommodated four and lounge seats/sofa accommodated four. About five minutes walk to the tram station. Apartment was spacious.

Cons:

No wifi in the apartment and therefore no smart TV/streaming etc. The advertisement didn't say there was wifi - I just assumed nowadays that all accommodation has wifi (will check for this in in future!). Accommodation, although listed in Surfers Paradise, was about a 35 minute walk to the main surfers paradise area/markets/attractions/supermarket. And about 25 minutes to Broadbeach Oasis shopping area. We are a fit family and happy to walk - we got the tram back though when we had heavy food bags.
