    Nice place but needs improvement

    We slpicked this place for the pools and slides for the kids and it was a good choice a nice way to spend hours outside and parents can relax to. We got a 2 bedroom apartment which was also a good choice for us, we overlooked the swim area and not to mention there are plenty of bbq areas for an easy meal. However the apartment was clean but the shower heads are small, my partner is 6ft 4 and had to bend over to shower, I'm 5'7 and it was just above my head. You can see mould in the shower from lack of air flow, the kitchenette is handy but the appliances are very old and dishes heavily scratched. The carpark is in no order and you have to drive in the wrong side of the road. We were only given 2 replacement small white rubbish bags and 2 toilets rolls for a family of 4 for 6 nights and to get more the property charges you $4 for 2 more toilet rolls. You have to take your own rubbish down to the bins in the carpark. And you have to pay $5 for a pool towel per person as only shower towels are provided.fhe games rooms is very small and just a room of gamesmyou have to pay for like you can just go and spend hours at time zone. We did notnexpirence the kids club. And the restaurant is priced reasonable, nice food we are there twice but our wood oven pizza was very overcooked and crunchy. Nice place but a bit outdated. Oh and no lifts! Drag those bags upstairs! Was fun with a baby!

    Location was good. Staff friendly. More towels were needed unless you BYO. Cockroaches were on the bench Wardrobes were very dusty More attention to detail with cleaning especially in the bathrooms and toilets. Suggest replacing the mould on the silicone. Parking is very tight/small and there were at times, cars parked in our designated park which was annoying. The beds were not comfortable for me.

    I didn’t like that there was no access to streaming on the tv, only had local channels available. Would have been nice to have access to a smart TV to be able to watch a movie in the evenings.

    Not enough lounge space for a family of four in a two bedroom “superior suite “ Some staff a bit complacent-eg We had two pigeons get into our apartment and poo everywhere when asked for fresh bedding we were asked to pay $25 per bed ?! Food was a little overpriced (but to be expected ) Pools were dirty (again,we arrived a week after cyclone so not entirely unexpected) Overall ,nice stay

    Splash zone great for kids Turtle kids club staff lovely and our child enjoyed attending a session Convenient location

    Most of the amenities require extra payments e.g. mini golf or using the tennis/basketball courts.

    Our kids enjoy the different pool options. There are a number of restaurants and a supermarket nearby. It is close to the beach.

    Our unit was a little dated. They didn’t provide adequate supplies like tea, coffee, sugar, dishwashing powder etc for the duration of the stay. We were charged for additional supplies.

    The grounds and pools were well maintained and the staff were friendly.

    The bed was a little uncomfortable, and some furniture was poorly put together (the coffee table was rocking), and some modern comforts are missing (we couldn't cast anything to the TV, no way to play a DVD, no radios or speakers, etc)

    The resort as a whole is beautiful, the staff were amazing and the facilities were good (resort restaurant, pools, putt putt, etc) The location was great for Surfers Paradise and for Theme Parks.

    Washing machine was an old top loader and didn’t spin very well but still washed the clothes. Would be great to supply pool towels!

    Wonderful resort for kids - the room was comfortable, pools are excellent, cafe right there, free crafts for the kids each day. Supermarket walking distance. Special shout out to the staff who replaced a broken dishwasher in our room on the same day, and even filled the dishwasher and washed the dishes for us while we were out. Very thoughtful and appreciated. We would love to come back.

    Dated resort. Rooms and buildings are aged and need a bit of a revamp. Rooms only provide very basic amenities so be prepared to supply your own. Rowdy kids and guests, but young kids love it so good for a few days but not a relaxing type of stay.

    Great water park facilities for kids, spacious apartment, self contained, parking. Location is fine with Woolies just up the road.
