Perfect location on the quiet side of the Macrossan, right next-door to Four Miles Beach. Easy street parking (the on-site parking spaces were extremely tight). Lovely spacious apartment with plentiful amenities. The complex is very comfortable with pools, bubble baths and BBQs. We will be back for sure.

Ok short stay in circumstances

Checking in late, room was meant to be open but wasn't. Had to call emergency number and took a further 15-20 minutes to access room. Cleanliness okay but some areas (particularly floors and balcony) wasn't well cleaned. Due to emergency issues with water supply (we visited shortly after a cyclone and record flooding) we had no water for >24 hours. Thankfully we received government text, stocked own water and sorted. No communication from reception, no offer of help with water supply Rooms overall were okay, could possibly use some modernisation (rooms/bathrooms we have weren't those in pictures). Master bedroom also had stairs leading up to bed meaning parents felt uncomfortable using that room and had to take twin Overall reasonable value for money, good size room, nice pool area. Few reasonably small things noted above otherwise would rate higher

More for families and kids than couples Pool and it’s surrounding was full of kids and their pool toys for most of each day. Unit 11 needs a total Reno and the out side patio area dingy and dark with no airflow. Great location and free parking.

Great location, easy parking, good size apartment but just needed a good deep clean. For this time that we are living in with Covid, I feel that cleaning should have been to a higher standard. Light switches, walls and floor I don't believe have been cleaned for a while, there was a sign that read in the kitchen $25 cleaning fee if the dishes are found dirty. Well we washed the dishes before using them and soaked the red wine out of the glasses.

Older style Budget accommodation in great location

Location is excellent and reception was very welcoming and helpful. Property was very good price wise but easy to see why. The property is very old although our kitchen had recently had a makeover & looked new. The cleanliness was ok but we found mouldy chopstix in the top of the dishwasher and there was only 1 toilet roll for 3 people for 5 days & no dishwashing liquid so we ended up just buying our own. The knob for the fan in the 2nd br was broken and there was also no laundry liquid, not even a sachet, we didnt expect a whole container. The laundry trough cupboard was full of old paint tins as well. The room itself was very spacious and definitely suited our needs but I'm not sure we would stay here again. The other thing is the car park spaces are very hard to get in and out off, hence us scraping our car along one of the drainpipes trying to manouver out. So choose your space wisely or park out front deoending on size of your car its tricky.

Absolutely Perfect!

We stayed here for 6 nights (originally had 5 booked but ended up extending) in #12 which is a deluxe 2 bedroom/2 bathroom apartment and we absolutely loved everything about it! The location is PERFECT! Walking distance to everything. Less than 1 minute to the beach in one direction and less than 1 minute to the start of the shopping/eating area in the other. Grocery store a short walk and having a kitchen made it easy do meals. Washing machine and dryer was handy as we traveled with our family. The whole apartment was very clean. The pool was fantastic and there was a bbq by it so was nice to cook while the kids swam. Very quiet location and views were fantastic. Enjoyed having breakfast on the balcony every morning watching the sun come up over the beautiful greenery. Tom checked us in and he was great! Made it all very easy for us. Will definitely stay here again when we return to Pt. Douglas.
