Beautiful spacious apartment

Lovely apartment in the perfect position. We stayed here with our two young children. Cannot fault the apartment. It was also nice and close to the Rockpool, close enough to walk to shops and the blowhole.

This is an amazing location and apartment. Large and well put together, but the bathroom needs an update, with a leaking shower and deep cleaning scratches around the toilet and basin. Also a booking for 4 needs more than 1 room key. Finally a 4pm check in is a bit late for the price. But ultimately it’s still an incredible place to stay.

Immediate Vacate

The person staying in the next room made inappropriate complaints which shortened our stay. I would formally like to make a complaint about the stay. I would like a refund of monies from a night we missed out on staying due to complaints against me and need to immediately leave the premises. I am very unsatisfied with the complaints made against me in my stay and would like to take this further .

Dear Whitney, unfortunately due to multiple complaints received by other guests and additional information provided by the hotel manager that multiple other guests had complained about your group, you had to be evicted from the property. We are bound by the NSW Code of Conduct and your group had breached these terms.

Lovely stay but beware if you get locked out of the apartment you pay for locksmith at your own expense even though by law spare keys are meant to be on the property which they were not!

We love these apartments but the last time we stayed to apartment was very dirty which was really disappointing. Also, we only had one key for the apartment which is inconvenient for a family of four.

Great apartment and fantastic location

The apartment is fantastic. Very spacious with a glorious outdoor space. Opening the doors to the balcony let’s a beautiful sea breeze run through the apartment - however there is air-conditioning if you prefer. Check-in was easy and everything was as advertised. It is a great location. We could walk to everything that we needed.

unloved

One gets the impression that this is very much a serviced property rather than a cared for home where someone lives and pays attention to the details. It is over looked by the hotel so little privacy when out on the balcony. There was no internet so the Smart tv didn't fully function, the knives in the drawer were broken, the balcony area was dirty and there was no barbecue, I'm told that this is unheard of for Australia. The large lounger was also dirty and we didn't want to sit on it. The windows table and balustrades , unlike as they appeared sparkling in the picture, required a good clean . This was all very disappointing considering what we paid for the 16 day stay. We did report to the company and a broken curtain was fixed , we also requested a key for the bedroom door to the balcony but no response. These issues were fully reported to the management company and to date an acknowledgement for our feedback has not been received .

Huge apartment, great location

Three days here felt like ten days worth of holiday. The apartment was much larger than I expected from the listing, and the view was better than I expected. Wonderful to walk down to the ocean pool in front each morning for a swim. Would definitely recommend.

Nice place, good time had by all, but it was a serious inconvenience in a large 2BR apartment to only be issued with one pass and on request for another, to be told that it could only come from Sydney!!

Hello Jennifer, thanks for taking the time to leave a review. Holiday Rental Specialists are pleased to hear you found this to be a lovely holiday home suitable for you and your group. Regarding the pass, the idea of the key safe is too put the keys back in after you have used them so that guests can come in and out of the property with only one set of keys. We look forward to welcoming you back in future.
