    Unit (#11) is very dated - maybe 80's and not the sleek modern apartment that was prominently advertised on the website. Kitchen cupboard doors need hinges fixing and doors hung crooked when opened, no 'dish washer' cleaner available so had to wash dishes by hand, bathroom dated with chipped tiles and dripping tap in ensuite. Small step up to both bathrooms a tripping hazard. Shower door in ensuite very narrow but managed to squeeze through. Although in need of some maintenance, we consider the fee paid for our stay in unit 11 value for money, the apt 9/10 for it's location, space, views and security. We would book again for future holidays and recommend Surfers Del Rey to others.

    Ground level, river front apt with quiet and pleasant views plus a big patio. Roomy apartment with 2 bedrooms, family bath and master en-suite, clean and tidy and surprisingly, large bottles of Body Wash supplied in both bathrooms. Very short walk (1× block) to the centre of Surfers Paradise, secure, off-street basement parking. Loved the location and sunrise/sunsets over the river, listened to the Anzac memorial on the partially covered patio with a cup of hot tea then watched an incredible thunderstorm blow through post ceremony. Modern washer and dryer in unit, handy after caught in a downpour returning from walk to town.

    The oven was broken during our stay which was unfortunate. The wifi is also not very good quality so we weren't able to stream shows or movies on the TV. If you have a lot of luggage, you should note there are only stairs.

    The size of the apartment, the location and parking facilities were fabulous. Having the pool area was also nice.

    It wasn't advertised that the jetty was closed for renovations so no fishing. What we were looking forward to with the kids and why we booked this place specifically.

    A little bit run down but you get what you paid for. The rooms didn’t have blankets, just a sheet and at night time it was really cold.

    Location was great. Only a 10 minute walk to Surfers Cavill Ave.

    May we suggest that you install a shower caddy in the shower? It would make it easier to access soap, etc as there is no facility other than putting this stuff on the shower floor.

    We liked that you provided some decent wine glasses. Usually we find odds and sods in this department.

    Spa was out of action, location was a bit dodgy for young families, carpark is very hard to navigate, rooms are not in order, angular and narrow parking. Room was noisy overnight, could hear doors slamming all night into the early morning. Fair walk to Cavill Ave with kids.

    Room was exceptionallly clean and very well maintained. Beds were comfy, sheets crisp. Staff were friendly and helpful, easy check in and out, room had everything we needed and more.
