Easy living at a convenient location!
Pros:

The friendly service of the staff is outstanding. Tess and the team give you a warm greeting and have everything well planned out with a thorough explanation of how to get settled.

The rooms are clean and have all the basics all laid out for you.

The prices are great and the location is extremely convenient.

There is a shopping precinct and the Kawana sporting precinct all within walking distance around the canal.

Bokarina beach is a 10 minute walk away

Comfortable, quiet family stay!
Pros:

Room was big, had everything we needed for a comfortable family stay! Staff were amazing, we left behind a ring and we were able to be let in after check out to retrieve it. Reception went above and beyond expectations.

Cons:

Not very many local tourist attractions, was a bit of a drive to local restaurants and shops. Pool was cold, would have been nicer if heated.

Still loved it 😊
Pros:

The convenient location and the value for money.
It is close to the beach and the Sunshine Coast Sporting precinct.

The SCUH is just across the road and there is a shopping centre within walking distance.

Tess and the team are very well organised and greet you with a smile every day.

I keep returning week after week😊

Cons:

Unfortunately, this time a had a very loud older couple next door that I don’t think realised that they were shouting at each other every time they spoke to each other.
