We had a great time despite the weather and we woukd book this same apartment again.
Pros:

The best things about this apartment is its location right on the beach, being close enough to the heart of Broadbeach as well as being very spacious.

Cons:

We were a party of five adults and were there for three nights. A few more rubbish bags would have been good and also some basic supplies like pepper and salt, even if it’s just sachets, would have been good.
