Our apartment was next to a construction site and they started work at 6.00 in the morning and the noise from that site was horrendous. Had a headache every time they worked. Could not recommend this place to anyone while site is being built. They haven’t even started the building yet still working on foundations

Kylie and Brendan, the managers, couldn't have been more helpful or nicer. Their responses were always quick and accurate. The resort is close to two shopping centres and has many options for dinner, coffee or walk along the beach or walkway. The room were large and tastefully decorated. Love our stay even though there was a bit of building noise next door. But building everywhere on Gold Coast! Thank you Kylie and Brendan
