The rooms were nice and clean. Close to the Alex pub, a pizza place and fish and chips. The cafe below the resort was convenient and nice.
It’s a 15min walk to Mooloolaba if you want more dinning options.

Our holiday stay was both restful and refreshing. a few days away from the usual routine, surrounded by beautiful scenery, good company, and delicious food. Whether it was long walks by the beach, quiet mornings with a coffee in hand, or late nights filled with laughter, the time away reminded me how important it is to slow down and enjoy the moment.

The accommodation was cozy and clean, with everything - feeling recharged, with a heart full of memories and a few new favorite spots I’d love to return to someday.

Beautiful apartment. One of the nicest I’ve stayed in (thank you owners). Stylish decor, very modern, everything you need. Lovely comfy beds. The sea is right over the road and it’s lovely hearing the waves. Great balcony. Swimming area between the flags is over the road and to the left. Nice outdoor swimming pool. Bus stops close by. Cafe on ground floor. Loved it!

Love this place,highly recommend it and will definitely be back. Staff are friendly. Right across the road is flagged beach, semi easy walk to Mooloolaba and Maroochydore. Very close to plenty of dining options. Fantastic ocean views. Your on a main road so expect traffic noise but closing the balcony doors block it out. I have no complaints at all.

Found it quite noisy with the air conditioner going at night in the room.
The fish pond in the foyer with the fountain was also rather noisy & wet the floor in the walkway so you had to be careful when walking past.
But was a good location & pleasant enough. Nice eating places nearby.
Found the TV was way too high up on the shelf on the wall for us though
Excellent that you don’t have to pay extra for your car park.

Absolutely loved staying here and will definitely return! This was my first time staying in the Sunshine Coast and couldn’t recommend this location higher. The beach is just across the road, there’s bus stops with easy links to the airport/shops right outside, and a wonderful coffee place attached to the building.

I read some reviews that said the decor was dated in some rooms - my room wasn’t brand new but it was sparkling clean and had everything needed for a very comfortable stay. The pool towel hire was a great bonus too.

I had a ground floor room with a patio, which felt safe and secure at all times.

Whilst this venue was in a good area, particularly for beach access and short drive/stroll from dining area, the property is dated, which also means it looks unclean but I am sure it is clean.

I had difficulty checking in late and was greeted by an abrupt person who advised they had a wrong number for me but the number on the paperwork was correct. So no contact was made to advise me how to check in after hours. And no communication during stay despite walking past reception multiple times per day.

The bed was poorly made with plenty of sheet to tuck in one side and none the other requiring me to remake, but uncomfortable until I realised early in the morning.

I will go elsewhere next time.

We had an absolutely brilliant stay at The Grand Palais. The room was very modern and comfortable. Stunning uninterrupted views of the beach, surf and whales on the daily. Great location, close to everything and the roof top was the perfect escape for Dad to enjoy a few coldies! We'll be back! 10/10!

We were very happy with our stay. Only disappointment being, I selected 2 queen beds when booking however one room had a double bed pushed right up against the wall with no way to move to gain access to the side of bed. Other bed in the room was a single. I twice requested two queen beds in the special requests section. Not once was I told two queen beds were not available.
The main bedroom had a king bed.

Very good older property. Very well located. Staff friendly, although no daily cleaning of unit. Very basic start kit provided, toilet paper etc then had to buy your own. However positives outweigh the negatives. Would rent there again.

Lovely stay

We arrived after hours but had clear instructions on where to find key. That night we realised the spa bath was not working. We notified reception in the morning and it was fixed by the afternoon - great service. Would stay again as it had everything we needed. Only downside was we didn't get a lot of sun in our room (however, we were out most of the day).

Great location, the beach is right over the road and the units are modern and clean. Only reason for the 4 stars in the private rooftop was closed for repair and we couldn’t use it. Disappointing for sure, the staff did provide some vouchers for the nearby surf club. The staff are all very nice and helpful. Would recommend this place for sure.

We stayed in unit #47 and it was absolutely amazing. It was very clean and had everything we needed for our week stay. The unit was warm, welcoming and super comfortable! We enjoyed walking along the beach each day and even up to the Good Asian restaurant on Aerodrome Rd, Maroochydore. We would highly recommend staying at Grand Palais! We’ll be back again!

The property had everything we needed for a relaxing beach holiday. It is literally across the road from patrolled beach. The pool on the first floor is beautiful and great place to swim if you need a break from the surf.
There is a lovely café outside ground floor of the building that makes a great coffee, their food is delicious too. Plenty of dining options nearby.
Be mindful that it is a bit of a walking to the main shopping district.

We stayed at the Grand Palais for 9 nights in a standard ocean front apartment - my husband, myself and our 2.5 year old.
The apartment was much bigger than I expected and the furniture and kitchen were more modern than what I remembered from the photos.
Beds were comfortable, TV in the lounge and master. We loved the spa bath, however the bathroom could definitely use an update.
There were a couple of things that could be improved such as an updated fridge - we struggled to get it cold enough, and a good clean as some of the walls were really grubby.
It’s a 17ish minute walk (with a pram) to Mooloolaba and there are hill, we found this pretty easy as we are relatively fit and made the trip most days.
The pool was close to our room (and is to most rooms I assume by the lay out)and was incredibly loud when children were playing and yelling.
Customer service was incredible and my son was even gifted a really gorgeous teddy from one of the staff which we called “Alex”.
The area surrounding was nice with a couple of options to eat which were all pretty tasty however.
All in all, great!
