Santana Resorts - a good place to stay

It was close to pacific fair shopping centre Two stops away from Florida gardens tram stop and 3 stops away from Cavill avenue stop for surfers paradise beach The only thing I would point of out is that we paid an xtra $125 for an extra person for 5 nights -even though it said on the Adevrtisememt that it caters for 3 people When I have already paid for the queen bed and a sofa bed included in the living room This is the only I could point out. As I have already paid over $1300 for the five nights It was still reasonably priced With laundry, kitchen and dining in one bedroom apartment There’s a pool and a good security garage for a car And the unit is reasonably 5 to 7 minutes away from the beach

The property is outdated and badly in need of renovation. I thought it was too expensive, the oven was dirty, the carpets are grubby and stained, the walls need a good coat of paint. Certainly is not what I would expect of a resort.

The property was in a convenient and quiet location. I was surprised that the room did not have air conditioning. I realized after checking in that I had booked this room and had assumed that all rooms had air conditioning. The room is looking old and in need of some repairs, but for the price was overall very happy.

The room stunk of filth, the cleaners did not do their job properly, spider webs in multiple areas and it had a terrible smell that just lingered all the time, even after we applied some plug in freshners, the smell was still around. No air con only fans that did nothing, not the appropriate stay at a place like the GC where temperatures go in the low 30s. Owner should spend some money to update soon. Definitely would NOT recommend this place for a stay, not even for one night.

There was no communication, not sure if this is due to Expedia as it’s my first time booking with them. I did however message the resort directly and did not receive an answer from them. The room wasn’t cleaned properly. The bathroom especially. It was convenient having the washing machine and dryer.
