Receptionist was great, what they dont tell you is that if you arrive after 8pm they charge your $50 per hour for waiting for you, too bad if you come in on a plane and its held up i have never been asked to pay for such a thing, Also the building can be hard to find in the dark as it is not very well signposted. complementary breakfast is only for Friday and Saturdays im sure the beachfront rooms are fantastic

Lovely property, rooms are small, very well appointed, but not much storage space. Bathrooms are newly renovated but again, no storage space. Lots of noise from the nearby airport, planes start flying overhead about 6.30 am. Room was serviced after the second night, but tea and coffee wasn’t replenished, lucky we took our own.

This property is in a great location for beach access - simply out the gate and you are on the stunning Bilinga Beach. Our room was clean and colourful. Bed was comfy. Supplied with pool towels and a well stocked mini bar! Being directly opposite Gold Coast airport there was noise from planes landing & taking off but thats to be expected. Onsite parking was really handy too. Staff helpful & friendly.

We found this apartment a little two small for us two adults. It's OK if the weather is favourable, but if you had to stay indoors, you would get cabin fever. We knew the accommodation was next to the airport, but gee the planes were loud. Access to the beach is incredible - just walk out the back gate and you have pristine beach for kms. So, even though we knew it was next to the airport, the beach access won. Parking is first in, first served, otherwise there's free parking on the street.

Really beautiful property and right opposite the beach which was amazing to wake up to. I didn't realise breakfast options were available to order so ended up walking to a cafe aabout 1km away. I had a short stay but would recommend staying here.

Place was not cleaned thoroughly and don’t bother paying extra for a 3rd person because the 3rd bed they provide isn’t really a bed, it’s a piece of board. Best thing about it was the rental bikes, which were falling apart as well, but some still worked.

Good things: location next to the beach path was great for walking/cycling to Coolangatta, and access to the beach. Loved the decor in the room! Nicely fitted out and comfortable. Bad things: staff disorganised and check in was chaotic. The building looks like it was renovated with a quick cosmetic makeover and the cracks are starting to show.
