The property was in a great location and it was easy to get to the Beach, Coles and many restaurants! It was on a quiet street with little traffic. The room was comfortable and nicely decorated. The bed was also comfy. We had a room at the back, which at first I was disappointed as the neighbours view was average. However, being at the back kept us out of the coastal winds and the balcony was huge and warm! You could also see the pool from the room, which was great. The pool was warm and open until 9pm! The kitchen was fully stocked, foxtel on tv and the wifi was fast! A great stay! Would stay again!!

Not a great deal of seating around the pool area and not many places to sit in the sun at the hotel.

We booked a 6 night stay. Shearna at reception has been so wonderfully helpful. We have stayed here previously and upon check in weren’t as impressed with our room. After a short conversation with Shearna she very kindly upgraded our room. I have to say, she saved our holiday after initially being disappointed to then more than happy with our accommodation. How special it is to have such kind and helpful people at reception. Shearna you were wonderful, thank you! We later had interactions with other staff who were also wonderfully pleasant and kind. Will definitely return on our next trip to Mooloolaba!

It was a lovely stay. Have no complaints

Great location, right in the middle of the action at Mooloolaba but one street back. Check in was easy. The listing showed exactly what the property was like. Quiet, considering it was right near all the restaurants and shops. Close to the supermarket

The apartment is on the small side. The pool is impressive to look at but again, quite small. Same with the BBQ areaThe gym has only three machines and no free weights so not really a full gym. Great place if you only plan to sleep there.

I always come back to this hotel! I enjoyed my stay with my partner very much. The location is fantastic and the parking makes me feel very secured that it is a private garage.

I agree with the reviews, the pillows are definitely very high up and dense but still squishy! The toilet though was very tiny, it was okay but I wasn't a fan of having to hang my towels levelled in front of the toilet, just felt a bit gross.

The staff at first light were incredible. We were a large group checking in at all different times and they went above and beyond to make sure everything was set up for us and ready when we arrived and even held our luggage for us after check out. Can't thank them enough! The rooms were gorgeous, exceeded the pictures. We had a lovely view of the ocean and were very comfortable for our whole stay.

The location is great and the facilities were wonderful!

Not having a blanket to use when the doona got too hot. At first we were told that blankets weren't provided, but my husband asked and was told that blankets are available. From then on we were very comfortable sleeping at night :) Also instructions on how to use the induction hotplate would be very helpful :) Someone did explain how to use it the day after we wanted to use it the night before, then it was easy :)(

Fantastic location. Have stayed here before and would come back again as it is comfortable, clean and is so close to the beach and shops.

The living/dining/kitchen in our apartment was a little on the small side. One small couch for four guests is inadequate. There were three of us, and we had to shuffle things so we could all sit together.

This place is situated in a great location making it easy and convenient to walk to Coles, the beach, cafes and restaurants. I definitely would recommend staying here to others.

The pillows were hard as they were all the same I was unable to get comfortable. The furniture could do with an update however it was still okay.

September 2023

the location of the unit was fantastic. Well designed unit even if a little small. The beds were comfortable. Generally the unit was clean, however the couches do need a deep clean as they were stained

The airconditioners were difficult to use. On both nights of our stay we could not get the aircon to work in the bedrooms. It became a little hot. I even tried looking up the manual for the aircon units at midnight one night to try to get it working.

Easy access to the best of the Sunshine Coast, well appointed unit that would suit overnight or a longer term stay

The only fault, which is specific to us as a family with a young baby, was not having blockout or near blockout blinds and the windows were full height so our travel curtain was too small. It’s such a small point, just made for some early mornings
