The apartment was lovely and clean. It was a very good size and had excellent amenities. The only thing that disappointed us was it appeared the rooms all had a view from the advertising but ours was at the bottom with a staff workroom in front of it. No view at all or balcony.

Great location directly opposite the beach but unfortunately view is of the petrol station. Fitness centre is a 7 minute walk away not on-site. Apartment was comfortable and clean, apart from the random sock left under the coffee table. Kitchen well equipped but unfortunately the dishwasher was not working

We stayed here for nearly 2 weeks with our 6month old. It was situated in the perfect area, almost on the great ocean Rd, short walking distances to the shops cafes restaurants and hospital. Managers were lovely. We had a perfect first holiday with our baby.

The didnt like's: Tight corner to access 'overflow parking', when there should not have been any overflow. This mostly caused by lack of signed allocation to appartment numbers. For those who enjoy fresh air IN the appartment 24/7 or less (myself included) this isnt the place for you. No fly-wire doors and NO fly-screens on windows...Needs to be addressed
