Unfortunatley, the room was a huge let down to this property. The standard was way below par. The entrance and the grounds are not a true reflection of the room at all!! We had to get the sink plugs unstuck. The room was tidy but definitely not clean. Fraying old outdated carpet. Damaged walls.A disturbing smell that i could not get rid of even with products and worst of all No aircon in room 12c. Screendoors and sliding doors don't move properly on the tracks. Toilets dont flush well. Water leaks from shower cavity to floor in main room. Only supply 1 towel per person, and an extremely sparse starter pack- tiny dishwashing liquid, clothes powder, 1 dishcloth, 1 teatowel, teeny tiny bodywash and shampoo, 1 face cloth per bathroom and 2 rolls of toilet paper. Considering we stayed for a whole week, that was poor! When I spoke to reception about the issues, she fobbed us off, told us we had booked a low grade room which didn't line up. I paid for 2 family units. Plus a friend also booked a room. Their room and my daughters room were far superior to my room for the exact same price! Great property overall. The groundsmen really do a great job of keeping everything clean and well maintained.The games room, gym and pool areas were well used. Although some of the local residents of the building were kind of nasty to the kids. Happily voicing their annoyance at holiday goers staying there and using the shared facilities.
Other 2 rooms had issues too.

The room was clean had a beautiful view was on a high floor close to the elevator on the beach walkable to restaurants, barbecue area, beautiful swimming pool and spa. The staff are wonderful.
The parking was under the building, gated and safe.

I highly recommend staying at the Princess Palms Excellent.

Unacceptable condition for the price.

The condition of the property was horrible, and unacceptable to be honest. Yes it wasn’t the most expensive accommodation on the Gold Coast but it certainly wasn’t cheap by any stretch of the imagination, the place smelled really bad, the fridge was dirty and sticky, towels had yellow stains, glasses had lipstick on them, the seats were dirty, carpet filthy, dirt and old sweets were under the beds, and worst but not least… the bed was filthy, when we lifted the sheets up there was black marks, urine marks — it was horrible. One of the sliding doors also kept falling off runners, and the main balcony doors had a gap and never shut, the whistling from the wind was crazy.

We actually complained on night and wanted to leave, we got a phone call the next day but no offer of that. They said they’d send housekeeping up, I don’t think they did.

We want to complain but I can’t seem to find a way to speak to Hotels.com about this. Social media may be our only way. But in summary, this stay was not acceptable when paying good money and is really recommend avoiding, and I’d love to speak to somebody!

Location was perfect. Everything we wanted within walking distance. Pool was small by okay.
Only negative was the single beds had no blankets on them. We had to use the ones in the cupboard. When I got the first one down I was bitten by something. So I used beach towels as blankets instead.
Reception staff was very friendly and helpful.

Great for a family getaway.

The hotel itself is undergoing renovations but our room was fantastic. The location of the hotel and access to the beach was the most enjoyable aspect for my two primary aged children. The beach was very safe for kids and calmer waters are also easily accessible. Hotel car park can be a bit tight in a big car but manageable. A lot of food options, cafes, posh bakery and supermarket all within an easy walk. We would definitely stay here again.

Would never stay again. We paid a premium price for a sub standard room. The views were great and that's about it. The room hasn't been maintained nor renovated since the 80s, it was in a poor state, wasn't air conditioned and all the windows rattled most of the time with the wind. Bathrooms had mould and were in poor condition as well. We left a day early as we just couldn't cope with the window rattling noise any longer as we got no sleep. Never again.

Rough and dirty- beware!

The building is well situated on the beach, with great views and a really nice pool and spa. The room, however, was dirty with greasy countertops and cupboard handles, hair in kitchen and bathroom drawers, and dirty carpets. The sliding glass door to the balcony could hardly move and could not be opened by my wife and kids. The laundry room shower door had broken glass and would not slide on its track. The shower head in the other bathroom would not stay up and it was hard to take a shower. The unit has not been updated since it was built 30 years ago.

We were provided one small bar of soap for four people for three nights. Really? We had to go to Coles to buy a pack of bar soap. We were expecting unpretentious comfort with this stay, not a rough camper cabin. I do not recommend this place to anyone!

Really great view, pool was wonderful.
Room was pretty well presented, however was a bit disappointed with the cleanliness of the floor - I had to sweep within 5mins of us arriving. I was advised by reception that this was probably due to the high turnover of units that weekend.
Despite this, everything else with the room was pretty good - apart from a broken blind, which I fixed as best I could

Very pleasing accommodation; a substantial unit with great views and full home-like facilities including dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. Found TV more difficult to operate: remote controls were not always responsive. The resort pool was very good while the hot tub was quite hot. A well maintained resort.
