Pros:

Location and facilities

Cons:

Felt like a very budget experience, taking out the rubbish or being charged $50, only receiving one pack of dishwasher detergent for a 4 night stay, limited toilet paper, tea bags etc, pay to rent pool noodles. No salt, pepper or oil in the kitchen.

Loved it there and we will definitely visit again
Pros:

Love the location close to the spit and respectively to Sea World and its surrounding activities (such as Sea World Whale watching cruises). Has a decent tennis court and a nice indoor pool with a proper sauna. Just a stone throw from Tedder street with all the restaurants. The flat itself was quite nice and comfy though is not new.

Cons:

Frankly it is hard to mention something really. I'm not quite a fan of spring mattresses hence that might be the one thing. Another one maybe is that would be great to have some dishwashing liquid in the room since it is required to leave the kitchen clean but that largely solved by presence of the dishwasher.

Magnificent Main Beach
Pros:

Awesome location and the views were amazing.

Cons:

The bedding was unusual but chatting with the manager it appears the owners of the units are wanting the two sheets and then use a blanket or the heater process to stay.

Pros:

Very good location, close to beach and nearby lots of cafes and restaurants for breakfast. Nice clean property. Great for families, with 2 bedrooms 2 bathrooms. Comfortable.

Cons:

Unfortunately the control panel to a/c didn't work and it was challenging heating the place. But that is apparently being fixed.
