We absolutely loved our stay at First Light. It is situated at a perfect place, within walking distance to shopping area, restaurants, beach and supermarket. We also had the perfect room which looked straight out over the beach. Would definitely stay here again
Great and convenient location to Mooloolaba beach, shops and restaurants.
