Room not clean had to ask for towels and a flannel. The towels they gave us had a hole in one and the other was thin and frayed around the edges. Hot water in kitchen was like warm and had to boil the jug to do the dishes. Blanket for the bed had stains on it and we had constant noise from neighboring apartments at night and had to wear ear plugs to get any sleep.

I would like to have given this property five stars but a few appliances stopped working. They were quickly replaced but the maintenance needs to be constant. The manager was apologetic and sympathetic.

On a positive side it was a great location with two coffee shops downstairs and restaurants in walking distance. The kitchen was well equipped and living area was spacious. Comfortable bed with plenty of storage in the bedroom.

The price was on the high end for the area, and would like to have had some milk left in the fridge (even those uhf ones) as you can't get in until 2pm, and all the local cafes close at 2pm. The bed was 2 twins pushed together, which created a very hard high ridge in the centre. I think it's time the mattresses were replaced in that room as when put together to form a double bed it was very uncomfortable. Otherwise the room itself was a perfect position overlooking the beach. Location had plenty of cafes around despite them all closing at 2pm. Located right on the water front across from lovely beach and park areas with good walking /running paths. It's away from the main traffic area and was very quiet. Good parking underneath. We had a lovely stay.

It is a clean, quiet apartment building in a good location. Pool and spa area is good. However it is not what I call a ‘resort’. Reception is only open Mon- Fri. There are no bars or cafes in the building itself and although there are 2 cafes at the front door, they close at 2pm. No pool towels are provided. Rooms are not serviced. We had a studio room which was okay for a short stay but having a single window that looked at the next room’s aircon unit, meant very little natural light. I would want a room with a balcony if I stayed there again.

The property charges 5 star rates yet it’s dirty, smelly, the young girl at reception had the work blouse on but buttoned down and had no bra on very unprofessional. The hallways on the floor I was on looked as though they hadn’t been vacuumed all week and it had a bad odour. The room was ok, but the skirting boards were thick with black dust, the corners in the rooms hadn’t been mopped as there was dirt building up and the apartment had a really weird smell, I ended up having to go next door to the grocer and buy some air freshener to take the smell away. Besides that it’s in a good location with the beach right across the road, there’s plenty of cafes right outside, and the friendly grocer a couple of doors u opens early and closes around 7pm so that was very handy. The amenities at the hotel were good, indoor heated pool/spa and sauna. A gym and outside there’s a lap pool (which had dark stains all through it) and a bbq which is on the rooftop. Could be a much nicer place with a good clean done.

Broken shower head holder (really hard to shower while also holding the hose, just used main bathroom) and toilet seat in ensuite (poorly attached, needs a new screw, just go to bunnings.. so you dont nearly die when you sit down).
Terrible lighting, good luck doing make up, too dim to see anything with a single downlight, or cooking when you are casting a shadow on what your doing.
Sliding door for 2nd room has a gap when closed, ruining any privacy.
2nd evening of our stay the main bathroom has a sewerage smell, which continued our whole stay.
Outside light doesn't work, probably needs a new bulb
Dirty oven
Buttons missing on washing machine, had to guess the settings.
Layer of dust under the coffee table, on magazine shelf.
Aircon in main bed drips on pillow, despite being only used on recommended settings.
Main bedroom has out of order safe.
Leaky shower head in main shower, so much of the water sprays out of the hose before reaching the head.
Lots of pigeon poo on balcony/aircon unit.
The lounge vinyl was peeling really badly and stuck to clothes and skin. The lounges also had many small rips and tears.
The cable management was terrible, lots of easily accessible cords.
I booked through wotif, the price was onw thing, then increased when I was charged, I assumed this was a refundable deposit type thing, when my partner asked about it on check-out the lady said I dont think we take deposits, so I guess that extra money is just gone?
Hopefully we wont need to stay here ag

Reception wasn’t open when We checked in 3pm (Saturday) stayed in 602 which is a 3 bedroom apartment. Apartment is furnished with random old furniture. One room with two random single beds is more like a study with sliding door so no privacy. Our children ended up sleeping in our room & the lounge room as there is no aircon in the 2 other bedrooms & it was a very hot evening. Windows in apartment don’t lock or shut which is scary when you have a toddler staying in the 6th floor. The apartment was very dirty to the point our feet were black from walking around inside. We went to tell reception on Sunday but they were closed, so sent an email with no response. It’s very disappointing as the apart is located in such a great spot & has great potential.

We enjoyed our stay overall in this property.
Our unit was clean and spacious for us.
We did have the smell of the cleaning fluid as a problem for us as it was very overpowering and it irritated our noses. We left both our bedroom and patio doors opened up the entire time and we still found the cleaning fluid too strong.
As we booked on level one we also had the light of the outside street light flooding in our bedroom the entire night that made us unable to sleep properly. The bedroom only had a translucent blind and it needs a double blind with a blockout option with such a bright street light. We will book again and revisit but next time we will book a room above the first floor so we dont have the street light bothering us.

This condo unit is gorgeous. The beautiful park on Moreton Bay has great walking sidewalks. Redcliffe is a 40 minute walk w lots of cafes and a huge street fair on Sundays! This condo has cafes and grocery right outside and beer/wine store 1 block away. The airport is 25-40 minutes depending on traffic. I stayed here for a respite at beginning of long trip from the US and for a day trip to the Steve Irwin Australia Zoo. That's an hour Uber or you can take the train to Beerwah from Rippa King. Biggest problem I had was getting to the airport ar 0700. Took me 40 minutes to get an Uber. I was told about the DIDI app, another uber type service in Australia!

What a great stay, what a beautiful little beachside vista and parkland outside the resort, with a great range of cafes outside the resort, didn't try the pool or gym but what I did see in terms of motel style room presentation was outstanding. Although I only stayed in the most basic on offer which suits short term one person stays. Note construction is next door but didn't impact my experience compared to what I was anticipating. Overall, it's definitely an area very appealing visually and nearby is the yacht club and mountain views but from the resort front door are excellent Moreton Island views combined with Bribie Island and Port of Brisbane views amazingly from the same vantage point. I feel as though I wish I had heard of Landsborough Avenue many years ago, instead at least I got to say I'd stayed here and seen the tree-lined esplanade with a variety of cafes that is Landsborough Avenue.

Great location and 2 fantastic cafe's at the front door, Access to car parking was easy, but car parks are very small.
After hours check in was difficult because the intercom system didn't work well and reception seemed uninterested in resolving the issue when we raised it the next day.
The property was rundown (holes/tears in carpet, burns to counter top, rusty brackets in shower, weathered air con unit, etc) and not bright and airy with green views like the Expedia profile suggested.
Room wasn't very clean.
Be aware that reviews on Bookingdotcom are more accurate than reviews in Expedia for some reason.
