The property does not cater to tourists as the the property is a residence facility. Tourists are not made to feel welcome. There are an insane amount of bylaws that are plastered all over the property and in your face from the point of check in. Our property did not have a bbq facility which was rather unfortunate for the ridiculous amount we paid for 3 nights. Further the property is rather isolated. You will require a car if staying in this area.

Cotton beach visit

We love the location and have stayed there before too. The beds were really confortable and we loved the big table and nice furniture at the balcony. Towels and bed clothes were enough and we were happy for the dishwasher, washmachine and dryer. We missed proper cleaning tools for the floor as we stayed for two weeks and would have liked to clean once in a while.

Unfortunately, this time there was a bad smell in the plumbing both in kitchen and bathroom. One of the main badroom sinks was plugged and water didn't go down well. The fridge leaked much water inside and even out on the floor. We had to be careful that our food wouldn't get wet of the dirty water. Sofas, carpet and Windows were dirty. We payed much more than our friends for the same size room and didn't have free wifi.

Easter holiday

Our apartment was spacious,clean and comfortable. Cotton Beach is between Cabarita and Casuarina where there are good shops and cafes etc, although there is not a lot within quick walking distance from the resort so a car is needed. Also key collection is away from the resort but was easy to access and directions were clear. Feedback was given about a few extras that the apartment needs; coathangers, bottle opener (we donated one), face cloths in bathrooms and spare tea towels. Otherwise our stay was very enjoyable and the off-site staff were friendly.

Apartment is well appointed. Location is good. Restaurant downstairs is lovely, good service, decent prices and food. You have to check in 10 mins away and then drive to apartment. Very complex access details from car park to unit. No phone reception and NO WIFI available. Unit wasn’t very clean. One Toilet was broken and did not flush. There was no one available to help after hours unless it was an emergency. You have to wash and put away dishes before leaving to avoid fee. Overall not super customer friendly experience but again the unit and amenities are lovely.

Apartment was comfortable, quiet and close to the beach. Calling it a resort was a bit misleading as there was no front desk to check in which you would expect if you called it a resort.

Ok place to stay with family

Easy access to beach. Our room was managed by Tweed Coast Holidays and Tammy was at reception as she said she would be, when we arrived. The issues that we had were the TV in the lounge area did not display images (problematic for a television) so we couldn't do our family DVD movie night as planned. And one of the two keys provided, the fob was damaged and thus didn't work in the elevator - so if stairs are an issue for you, that could be a problem too.

The cleanliness of the room was ok. It had been wiped down, but the kitchen doors/handles were sticky and some of the pots and pans really need to be replaced or just removed. There were bamboo steamers which had furry mould on them.

Otherwise, the facilities were fine and it was a pleasant place to stay. I'd stay there again but I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend people to stay nor would I tell anyone not to stay. It was fine.

This was a nice, big apartment with a plunge pool off the private balcony and nice views into the gardens and communal pool. It has everything you need including full kitchen and laundry/dryer. We stayed in unit 68 and it was in a 4G black spot, thought. Almost impossible to get any data connection at all. This room REALLY needs a Wi-Fi connection. Also, the AC did not work - only blew hot air. Other than this, it is a nice place to stay

Cotton Beach - lovely apartment, great 2 bedrooms!

We couldn't fault the apartment itself. It was new and shiny, the balcony was just wonderful. We needed 2 separate bedrooms both en-suite, so the layout worked well for us.

The poor rating comes goes to whomever does the housekeeping.

Unfortunately some wet, soggy paper had been left in the kitchen bin to fester. Once we went to dispose of waste, the bin was opened and the sewer like smell invaded the entire apartment. Even with the Air Con switched on and the balcony doors open wide the smell was appalling, we felt quite sick. Even the next morning the smell was still evident,we couldn't wait to leave.

The other problem was TOILET PAPER. We were only staying for 1 night, so we didn't think to pack our own toilet paper (and at the premium price for the night, you would hope for better). Housekeeping had left ONE TOILET ROLL in one of the en-suite's, and NONE in the other. Sharing toilet paper on totally opposite sides of the apartment - NOT GOING TO WORK!

Apart from that, the space was well decorated and in excellent condition. The pool was great and the outside space really rather nice.

Nice Resort Close to the Beach

The location was fantastic, right on the beach. The room is designed really well - great layout, and the room is very well equipped.

The only drawback is there is no onsite staff. Would be nice to have a front desk to go for bike hire, tours and attractions in the area etc. Even some brochures or booklets in the room would have been helpful.

The cleanliness was very disappointing. The BBQ hadn't been cleaned probably since the last few guests. It was revolting, and stinky. Too revolting to try and clean for use. The main bathroom had items left on the sink top from previous guests, there looked to be like blood on the tiled wall. And a bandaid was stuck to the tiles near the outdoor private plunge pool. The glass tables in the lounge looked like they had been cleaned with a dirty cloth. I would seriously reconsider replacing the cleaners.

But the resort itself was lovely, nice and quiet and a great spot so close to the beach and the boardwalk.

Check in and check out was very quick and easy

Not for Familes

I wouldn't recommend this for families to stay. The onsite managers were contantly telling the kids about their rules! They couldnt make noise ( it's Christmas ) they weren't allowed to play ball on the grass, run on the grass, or play ball in the pool. We and other parents argued with managers regarding the above and poor signage, which they changed the next day!
The Managers told us this is NOT a resort!
If your a permanent resident you need to be prepared for some noise especially in peak times.
