The facilities are great. The room not so much. We arrived on a 36 degree day. No air cons in rooms only in lounge room had to move all mattress's out there so all kids could get cool. Only double beds in 2 rooms which are not good when you have tall teenage sons. Dishes were dirty. Mould in cupboards and bathrooms. Outside setting rusty and unusable as broken. Lounge absolutely filthy and stained. I wouldn't take my children back to that room it was very unsanitary.

A lovely resort adjacent to the beach with easy access to walking track and the patrolled beach. The unit was homely rather than super modern but perfectly suitable. The cleaning of some areas e.g. balcony was not up to scratch but all living areas were well cleaned. We found the pool an excellent size with a gym and hot spa part of that complex. Very convenient. At times, the pool was a little cloudy and we wondered whether it was being serviced sufficiently at this peak time of year. A few other signs of under maintenance were apparent at times e.g. pool fence gate locking was dodgy. We parked one car underneath and the other in the visitors car park as advised and although the latter was very full we always found a park. Our unit was on the beach side not the highway side and we heard no road noise. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. We will look for less expensive options for next year's vacation but would happily go back to this place if needs be.

Will never stay here again. Paid $300 per night and the place was disgustingly dirty. The couch was filthy, chunks of hair on the floor, dirt and grime built up in corners, the bed linen was dirty, the air conditioner didnt work and the bed was so uncomfortable I got up with a sore back each night.

Positives: The Resort’s grounds and general amenities are very good and well maintained. The Resort has direct access to one of the best beach environments on the Sunshine Coast. We had great views of the ocean and Mudjimba Island from our 5th floor apartment balcony. A number of interesting cafes and bars are located nearby. Negatives: Apartment 107 that we rented for a short stay was very disappointing. The apartment had only been partially cleaned. There was empty takeaway packaging left on the balcony. The kitchen benches needed wiping down. The refrigerator had food scraps left on the shelves. The dining room table had food residue stuck on the surface and needed wiping down. The oven grill had not been cleaned. The balcony glass panels and sliding doors were almost opaque from the salt air and needed cleaning. The screen doors to the balcony were stuck together at the latch due to rust and initially had to be prized apart to enter the balcony. The split A/C systems remote control was missing. The A/C unit condenser located on the balcony was heavily rusted and barely functional. The A/C unit really should be replaced. The black faux leather lounge was thread bare in places and had a coloured cloth and cushions hiding where the surface had delaminated. Conclusion: The Resort does not appear to have minimum standard that apartments are required to maintain before they are made available for holiday rentals. We will not rent here again.

The unit itself was lovely. But we had no towels, no soap, no coffee, old soap still in soap holder from previous stay and not cleaned, no tea towel but had to clean before we left. Had to scrub microwave before we could use it as was filthy and plate had old cooked food all over it. Outside table still had food and drink spills all over it. Reception was supposed to be open from 9-12 on weekends no one in site. Thankfully we managed to get some towels on the second day. Position and area was lovely just very sad the cleanliness and staffing let it down.

After a reasonably efficient but not overly friendly check-in, we were confronted by a room that looked and felt dirty. The carpet looked like a crime scene and the walls weren't much better. We also discovered the fridge wasnt working so the management were kind enough to move us to another room. Although the new room didn't have a roof top area, it was in a significantly better and cleaner state so we really felt like we dodged a bullet. Unfortunately, the room was far from perfect and we discovered used towels/tea towels and a dirty toliet/shower which grossed us out a little but it was still better than the "penthouse" apartment. Apart from that, the view from the room was magnificent and the surrounding grounds were beautiful. Overall, Marcoola is a beautiful spot to visit but I wouldnt be rushing back to Marcoola Beach Resort.

Pros: easy check in, onsite parking, most facilities you need, bed was super comfortable although bedside tables rather than tall boy would be better Cons: 2 towels for 3 guests, bathroom bins still had sanitary products from previous guests so clearly hadn’t been cleaned, both doonas have yellow stains as did a couple of pillows. Tv remote is temperamental. Switch to power the oven and hot plates is dangerous and unsafe - sizzles and crackle and hard to switch off. Had a comfortable stay after working around the issues.

We had a lovely stay but there were a few issues - reception is only open from 2pm-5pm, no batteries in tv remote, very little toilet paper with no additional rolls available (5 people in the apartment), we had to empty the dishwasher from the previous occupancy. The apartment was very comfortable though and the grounds and facilities lovely.

We stayed as a family of 3, the area was great, the previous occupants had put away uncleaned plates / cutlery which we washed, we couldn’t connect to any WiFi which was annoying.
