Wonderful

Venue met our expectations inside BUT the noise from the construction site next door and from the refurshment of the accomodation's pool meant the balcony was unusable.
Nice place to stay close to everything, It was clean and roomy only thing wrong was the smoke smell in the room. It was very strong and we came home with all our items smelling like smoke. We would go back again.

Wonderful property, spacious, modern, clean and family friendly apartments. Beautiful views of the ocean (ocean view apartments)
Superb location - restaurants, cafes and shopping centre at your doorstep. Pacific Fair only a short walk away. Beaches close by. We had a memorable time. Would definitely come back to The Wave Resort.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Room 1002 decor is ordinary, dated, sparse and lacks character, decorating and warmth.
No daily room cleaning of beds and bathroom
Hallways felt old, need fresh paint and decorating
Shower overfloods the bathroom and is dangerous
No replacement of shampoo and conditioners
Staff are officious and unhelpful
I travel around the country to play in bridge championships and stay at numerous hotels and this was sub par.
Great place to stay close to everything but construction next door was a bit much on the last few days

Liked: Cleanliness
Great location on the main strip. Staff were very accommodating with questions. My only negative was there was obviously some maintenance done in the bathroom that hadn’t been finished and possibly needed an upgrade with their small goods (note this was just our apartment). Overall a lovely place and would return

Staff were friendly, the area and the location was really good, however the unit we stayed at had the furniture outdated, specially bedding, mattress was very uncomfortable!
Also had lots of unwelcomed crawling guests which was a turn off!
Pest control before high season would've been good!
Close to everything in the heart of Broadbeach. We have stayed several times previously and always happy. Great location, good views, clean & good size apartments.

From the foyer onwards the building was clean and well maintained. I loved the extra security on the carpark. Dining was straight outside the door. Our apartment was perfect.
the location is right in the heart of Broadbeach with restaurants and shopping all within the same block. Given the location, there wasn't any noise. Rooms neat, clean and all equipped and well appointed. Highly recommended
Overall it was a good cozy apartment.
The only thing was beds were a bit high .. especially for people with mobility issues.
Also we noticed room 1703 has a problem with small cockroaches at night time in the kitchen and main bathroom.
