Pros: -Had a beautiful beach view and a lovely alfresco to sit in to have your morning coffee. -Close to the beach and anything you wanted - Kitchen and place was clean - Everyone very friendly and welcoming Cons: -Unfortuantely the mattress on the right was ruined and uncomfortable -The shower had rust and is leaking on the side (had to place towels on the ground to keep it dry) -The TV was shocking as it kept disconnecting, turning on and off and losing signal to Foxtel frequently, we couldn't even use the "casting" option as it wouldn't work. Had IT come in and reboot the TV several times along with the router but they advised they had no control over Foxtel's reception. - The hotel spa was very small compared to the size of pools and place, very disappointing as there were always kids splashing around in it and you couldn't really relax in it, let alone fit comfortably - The designated parking spots was ok but very tight, a lot of the people had family sized SUVs or FWDs and couldn't fit properly so they would take almost 2 spots and you would have to find another but only the special marked spots -Air-conditioning had to be rebooted as it was very weak. We thought this was normal until a maintenance man looking at the TV issue advised us Overall had an ok time, wouldn't want to stay here again though.

Everything about our stay was amazing. The apartment was wonderful and had everything we needed. The front desk staff were always so helpful and friendly. The resort pool was lovely. We had the buffet breakfast one morning in the sky point which was fabulous with delicious food and great views. It was in a great location, just walking distance to the beach and to the Surfers Paradise Cavil Avenue. We would definitely return as this accommodation was wonderful.

Unfortunately our first night was a night to forget the room looked like it had gone 101 rounds with lily phillips , the next morning we were moved after discussions the day before , amazing views but unfortunately a bit ratty and 2 single bed mattress pushed together trying to disguise themselves as a king bed (very uncomfortable) unfortunately the q1 has become outdated but still continue to charge the rates of a 5 star hotel . Better options can be found at a lot less hit to the back pocket , we will be exploring our options next time we are up in surfers

Hotel is located in a very convenient area, short walk to beach and main shopping mall. Also close to light rail. Our room was clean and had everything we needed. Only con was that even though the main bedroom had block out blinds the light was still very bright in the morning as light came in around the sides and top of blinds. The pool area was nice but offered no umbrellas to shade the sun lounges. You did need to be in the pool area before 9 am or you would miss out on getting a sun lounge, table or lounges under the umbrellas. Overall is was good for our needs.
