The Mandolin is situated directly opposite the Alexandra Headland Surf club. We had a front facing apartment and there is a lot of road noise, especially in the evening. Boys and their loud toys! The Surf club would start cleaning around 5am and it did not matter if it was rubbish removal or beer keg change over, it was noisy with no thought for visitors sleeping. Overall it was great as the Mandolin has great facilities for kids and adults. Pools were clean but the spa could do with a scum skim every so often. Will we stay there again? Not really sure.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic Family Stay! We had such a wonderful stay at this resort! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful — they really went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The ocean views were absolutely breathtaking, and we loved waking up to the sound of the waves each morning. The resort itself was spotless and beautifully maintained, with plenty of space to relax and unwind. Our toddler especially loved the kids’ pool — it was the perfect size and so well designed for little ones. The whole family had such a relaxing and enjoyable time, and we can’t wait to come back again. Highly recommend for families looking for a clean, comfortable, and fun coastal getaway! 🌊💙

Apartment was older but clean and comfortable. Beds were good and the facilities on site were great. Convenient to the beach, surf club and dining. Fair bit of traffic noise and light from the Surf Club signs coming into the apartment was a little intrusive. Staff were helpful and friendly. Overall pretty good value.

Staff were friendly and we were super convenient to everything close by, and the parking was a bonus! The resort facilities were amazing and the heated pool was a favorite.
