Escape from the city
Constrution work next door. 2 coffee shops at entrance were excellent for breakfast.
We had the 1 bedroom apartment for 2 nights and were very happy with it. We will definitely stay again however we will wait for the renovations to be completed as wewere unable to use our balcony due to scaffolding so it was fortunate for us that it rained while at the resort. The only thing that could be different is the smell in the elevators….i think they need to be given more attention especially now the hot weather is here….
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! Very relaxing stay with also a pool, huge hot tub and sauna!
Extended the stay with a 1 bedroom apartment which was very spacious, overall very good value for money.

I have stayed here a few times and this time I was disappointed. After hours check in was frustrating, the room was okay but the fan remotes didn’t work, the wifi didn’t work, the balcony door couldn’t lock and the and the bathroom design is just odd requiring calisthenics to get into the shower without water escaping everywhere. Then just for fun construction commenced 6.30am on a Saturday, now I know the hotel cannot help that but warning quests or not putting guests in rooms so close to the construction.
Overall it was underwhelming and I will reconsider staying again.
The rooms to start with some holes in walls
The second bedroom has no windows and bed are really small no fans in room either for the comfort off the people who stay in the room
Pidgon has been on the aircon unit poop everywhere and disgusting couldnt let daughter on verandah or myself cause the smell from birds
Could use with darker curtains in room for the price i paid pretty disappointed and disgusting definitely wont be returning to this place
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.
We are regular visitors to the area and know what accommodation options our dollar buys - this one is below par and we are unlikely to visit again.

Getting old and tired - like us. Noisy construction site next door. Quite adequate for a couple of nights.
