Overall not the relaxed pleasant stay we had hoped for.
Pros:

Location was great
We liked the sea view

Cons:

The unit was very old & tired, cracks in paint work. Power points in both bathrooms and laundry were not working.
Mould in shower areas. Dishwasher not cleaning, so had to wash by hand. Paint scraps on fridge due to old age.
Vent cover fell off in bathroom at 2am one morning. Aluminium doors and windows did not seal very well and wind whistled and rattled. Trade people noise with work that was being done.

Pros:

The unit was renovated and modern

Cons:

The power went out within 10mins of being in the unit. Then an electrician was going to be a while to arrive. Estimated arrival was close to 6pm and it would be dark by then. When I spoke to the manager onsite he advised they were fully booked and we would need to fi d somewhere else to stay.

Pros:

Nothing. Me and my family did not end up staying at the Foreshore Appartments after being informed on arrival that construction works were being carried out on the building. Scaffolding was erected around our beach view unit, blocking our view. I was also advised that noisy works would commence from 8am every morning during our stay. After refusing the accomadaion under these circumstances, myself and my family were left scrambling to find alternative accommodation during a public holiday. No extra assistance was provided from Foreshore Apt regarding this. Refusal of an immediate refund from them and booking.com compounded the situation as we now required a substantial amount of extra money to pay for alternative accomadation. The whole experience left my family feeling sad and anxious for what was to be our first family holiday in over 3 years.

Cons:

As above.

Apartment needed a revamp very basic holes in outdoor chairs, lounges needed to be comfortable.

Good value, spacious apartments on the beach
Pros:

Foreshore Apartments are an excellent budget choice for a perfect family holiday. The 6-storey 80s style complex is superbly located, literally with its own gate to the beach, a well-maintained pool and spa, and lovely wraparound garden. The two-bedroom apartment I stayed in was spacious with two bathrooms, two balconies (one with a magnificent "partial view" of the water), a well equipped kitchen and airconditioning in the lounge/dining room. Internally, it's not ultra modern but has ben updated and is very clean.

Cons:

It shows its age in minor ways (like worn out curtains in the master bedroom) but great value.There were a couple of minor disappointments in the way things were handled. Arrived to construction signs and scaffolding going up. I asked why I wasn't informed before I arrived, was told the decision to do building works was only made the day before (really?) and that I had been sent a message via Booking.com only that day! So no option to change my accommodation if it bothered me. And no apology. I hope the works include putting aircons in the bedrooms as they got quite hot with only ceiling fans. A couple of days later the evacuation alarm started blaring outside our front door before 5am, waking and terrifying us. Again the building manager did not apologise when i asked what had happened, just explained that the alarm was faulty. I accept that things sometimes just happen and I would stay here again especially after a building refresh.
