The images of this hotel is fake! Be aware of that before you book! The room is pretty old and has a uncomfortable smelling, It is definitely not a 4 star Hotel, they do not even has tool paste, I have to buy from the vendor mechine myself! One star for the view, nothing more than that.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (558 reviews)
Fabulous on the beach location. We were lucky enough to have a beachside apartment (shame we were only there for one night!). The room was huge with everything you would need to cater yourself for the stay, including a massive fridge, dishwasher and the all important washing machine and dryer. Two things to note; 1. When you check in, stick the car in one of the semi-circles along the road. You will be given a tag for the car park and the internal staircases too. 2. There are no lifts at this property. We’re late middle aged and struggled with our largest suitcase s we needed the both of us to lift it up and down the three sets of stairs from the apartment to the car park.

Very good value with the discounted price when we booked. The apartment was exceptionally clean and comfortable. In a small complex with mix of residential and short stay accommodation, it was very quiet. Well set up for being self sufficient during your stay. Gated undercover parking and plenty of street parking. Short walk to the beach and local cafes, restaurants etc. Good location for trips to Daintree, Cairns or Kuranda.

The complex is in a great location with easy access to the beach and local restaurants. Good access to highway for exploring the wider region. Ideal for families. Apartment was nice, spacious with modern appliances, comfortable lounge area and balcony, bathrooms were a little tired but had been recently decorated. Complex is well maintained with nice garden areas and pool, secure underground parking with easy access was good
