Units were extremely clean and tidy. Beds clean and Comfy. Had all extras supplied eg. Shampoo Cond, Milk Tea Biscuits etc. Microwave;Blowdryer, Iron all provided.
Motel is in middle of rebuild and upgrade., so drive in area looks a bit messy at present. Grounds except pool and bbq area are WORK IN PROGRESS because of Builders and Work vehicles but Rooms are Spotless and obviously going to be upgraded when the new units are completed. Great new pool area. Servo that sells everything including food a few yards up from MOTEL and 5minutes drive to Buderim Hotel.
Julia our Hostess was friendly and very helpful.
Thank you for your Hospitality.
Thoroughly recommend this Stay. 👌

The place was a building site being renovated and charging ridiculously exorbitant prices for a daggy room with a broken wardrobe door. There were no staff on site and lucky there was a cleaning lady available when we got there who messaged the owner to let them know we had arrived. Twice before arriving I had tried to call and left messages and no one returned my call. There was no mention on the booking about renovations which is very poor, as had I known about this I would have not booked. Overall very disappointing and unfortunately we had to leave to return home for an emergency. I’m actually quite pleased that we didn’t get to stay there because it’s absolutely terrible.

I found a flea in the bed. The property is building the pool so is false advertising and the rooms don't get clean every day. If the pool and BBQ is not available they should be honest about it. Is misleading to advertise the pool when is under construction. I booked there thanking I'll be using the pool.

My partner has a disability, so we needed a motel close to The Big Pineapple because it is on his bucketlist and it was a special birthday. All I wanted was to read a book in front of a pool and sleep in. The pool was under construction... there was a hole, a digger, and a truck that made reverse beeping sounds outside our room for 30 minutes from 7 AM on Friday morning... no sleep in... no pool... no notification that the motel was a work site, which was quite dangerous for my partner's disability, not to mention the headache that lasted most of the day due to the beeping truck and digger.
The property was fine but we should have been notified about the maintenance so we could make an informed decision. Overall felt deceived and we were really dissappointed.
At the end of the day we still had a nice ebough time and had a laugh about our luck.

We were a little disappointed in the condition of the room. It looked like renovations were being done to the facility and we may have gotten assigned a room that had not been updated yet. There were stains on the floor and on the bedsheets. The bathroom window made us uncomfortable as there was an opaque window cover with holes that could easily be looked through and the shades in the main room window were installed on the outside of the window frame so there was a sliver of window that could be seen through as well. The windows themselves were not very secure either. Additionally, the lock on the door could be more secure and the outside light needs repaired as we had to return to our room around the side of the building in the dark. The owner was very kind and did allow us to do an early check in. They also responded in person to assist us with a concern we had. Overall, if renovations were completed, this could be a nice place to stay for a night or two.

What I liked about the property was how quiet the room was. The motel was convenient to where I needed to go for an event only due to having a car as public transport was not close by. I didn’t like that there was no safe to place valuable items in or a luggage stand to place luggage on. No sink in the bathroom so had to use the same sink that you used to wash the dishes.The front door was not very safe with a glass panel that could easily be broken to access the room.

I was relieved to secure an hotel at last minute close to Sippy Downs and arrived late around 8:30ish from the Pet hospital. The hotel was closed up and there was poor light outside and I couldn’t see the hotel office or a sign for the office. I walked around the side of the building where I saw a light and a couple were watching TV I asked if their room was the office and how I could find the Manager. They gave me directions. I found the office door and the Manager was very helpful , she promptly checked my booking ,gave me keys and pointed me to my room, a few doors away. This is an older 70’s style establishment that has been updated, inexpensive tariff and well kept. It appeared to be booked out once my room was confirmed.
Main Room & bathroom , we’re clean & tidy. Queen size Bed ,linen was clean & bed very comfortable. TV ,complimentary milk, tea & coffee, kitchenette style with kettle & refrigerator . There was a very loud noise outside the Bathroom window from an air conditioner. But once the old heavy bathroom door was closed it drowned out the sound. I slept well in the comfy bed and left early to return to the vet hospital. Thanks Fiesta& Last Minute I needed that safe secure rest.
