Our particular room was a bit out dated and satisfactory in cleanliness. Great deal online, we had a car so was easy enough to get where we needed to go. Pool was great for the kids learning to swim, as is shallow for a lot of it.

Both the unit and property location were ok however we expected to have some kind of ocean view from our room given its beachfront location. We were told we didn’t request this in our booking and therefore nothing they could do. The wifi was terrible, kids had to hotspot when we were home and couple of days with no wifi due to maintenance. The beach water was murky, so with the local crocodile warnings we didn’t end up swimming at trinity beach. Then the day before our scheduled checkout at 10am, reception phoned to see what time we’d be leaving. Overall not the best experience 😕

Highly recommend a stay at Coral Sands. Suited our family perfectly. Close proximity to beach and restaurants. Pool and gardens were immaculate. Loved having the full kitchen and washing machine. Quiet and safe location, but still plenty happening in town.

Location was good. Unit was listed as “ocean view”. I think this is misleading and partial ocean view or obstructed OV would be more accurate at best. The unit had an “old” odour and was in need of updating despite a recent paint job and new sofa. The quality of furniture was not that of a 4 star property as listed. Expedia also listed as a hotel- this is not a hotel but a self contained property. Smoking on the balconies was also not appealing. Local restaurants provided good Food. Pool area and grounds were well Maintained. Make sure you have pool towels unless you want to rent them!

Loved the location. Family friendly and nice atmosphere. I didn't like the beds at all,every movement can be felt through the springs and made for some bad nights sleep. Be sure to bring your own pool towels as they are not provided.

Broken dining chairs, unpainted walls, broken bathroom fixtures, saggy beds this hotel stay had it all. Unfortunately as each unit has individual owners it appears the resort has no standards and as a result our appartments looked like the last time it recieved any maintanence was some time ago.

Coral Sands is a nice resort in a great location, across the street from Trinity Beach. The resort has several apartments over 3 levels, with underground parking, but no elevator. We are seniors and getting our luggage up and down the stairs was a feat in itself. The property has beautiful gardens and a large pool - great for families. Communication with the resort could be improved. The resort emails that are sent to guests are mostly non-replyable,so this does not allow for two-way communication. That aside, the resort is well kept and only a few steps from the beach.

Fumes.
There were many positives: a large pool, free BBQ's, & a large 2BR unit which was well-supplied & fitted out. BUT They allow smoking on the balconies, which was an issue. Our unit was in the L-shaped bend, and was one of the few where a neighboring unit balcony not only gave view of our balcony but into the front of our unit. Wouldn't be an issue except the next-door resident (? permanent) was a chain-smoker (2-4 times per hour!), & the predominant SE winds & the laws of physics resulted in the smoke eddying & in fact concentrating into the SW corner & us being prisoners - unable to sit or air our towels/bathers/clothes on the balcony, nor open our doors. Even with the patio doors shut our room smelled of smoke, & the stairwell (having permanently semi-open wooden slats) smelled fiercely from the concentrated fumes. Smoking status is not a usual requirement to be disclosed on booking, but I would have to suggest that anyone wanting to stay here specifically ask to have a room away from the bend or NOT next to a room with a known smoker.

Quiet area, though resort rooms were a bit dated. Although it didnt matter to me, there was no daily housekeeping to make up the room. I checked in on a Sunday at midday and the reception was closed, which wasnt a great start. A quick phone call gave me access to my key (in a lockbox) When i went to offically check-in on Monday morning, the receptionist was 30 mins late to work which made me late for some.plans i had up in thr rainforest. Better communication would have helped here. All that said, it was a pretty good place to stay, and id probably return now that i know what to expect.

Dirty and smelly!
The room was dirty and smelt terrible when we arrived even though the patio doors had been left open. The dish washer was blocked and the floors had not been mopped. The cupboards and draws smelt terrible, I washed everything before I used it. We never ate anything prepared at the property. The air conditioning was non existent we had the fan on all the time to help with humidity. The beds were acceptable with clean bedding but not enough pillows and the mattress was an industrial and hard. The apartment could have been a lot cleaner and a bit of attention to house keeping to make sure residue dirt and smells are eradicated would go a long way to making this an acceptable accommodation. I would not recommend.
