The pool area was lovely with a beautiful big spa.
Apartment was nicely furnished, but wasn't as clean as it could be. Cutlery drawer was dirty, lots of visible dust under beds etc

So close to Currumbin Sanctuary that you can walk. Beach is just across a little bridge and the three pools are amazing. Under new management, these appartments have the potential to shine. Leah and John were very polite and helpful.

Loved being next to the bird sanctuary. Didn’t like that the shampoo was already empty and soap unwrapped from the last person in the shower.

Property has nice garden and pool,car park is excellent, some areas of the apartment were not cleaned well,some mould on fan blades and bedroom balcony door area,room amenities were excellent otherwise apartment was clean
Really unhappy with the state of the apartment we were in. There was rubbish from previous guests, the floors weren’t mopped (couldn’t let our baby crawl on the floor), the portacot was covered in a thick layer of dust & there was mouldy food in the pantry.

Much beyond my expectation for a holiday home. It is so comfortable and well-equipped in kitchen ware, laundry, tumble dryer, Netflix, hot bath, air conditioning, and indoor designated parking spot. I could see guests enjoying the outdoor hot spa on a winter day. It is next to the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary that offers hot breakfast for non-visiting guests where you eat outdoor or under cover sharing the lovely space with the free-range big birds. Lorikeet feeding is also accessible to public before entering the park. The beautiful beach is just two minute away and many good restaurants ( dine-in or drive through) and shopping malls are within less than 15 min driving distance. It is so close to the airport that it is no brainer to drive there after picking up your car at the airport. We will definitely return for our next holiday.

Pros: Eddie was wonderful; very quick to remedy any issues, and easy to reach if needed. The grounds were beautiful!! The rooms were perfect for a family of 5; enough of the necessities, and plenty of room for us all. The spa was perfect on cold days.
Cons: Permanent residents made us feel very uncomfortable when using the pool/spa, or moving about the complex. There was also a gross smell coming from the ensuite drain.

We arrived late and our key was left in the safe for us. Our room was fantastic. Great location. Will happily come back!
Fabulous week. Handy central location for a variety of excursions. Swimming was great, both at the pool and the beach. The accommodation was perfect for us. Lovely complex, well managed and maintained.
The place is close to beaches the swimming complex was great especially for kids the surf club Vikings was 10minutes walking distance for meals great walking tracks along the beach plus Currumbin Bird,Sanctuary fantastic for kids
Wasn't clean owners belongings stored in one of the cupboards was told the entire property and grounds are smoke free and the entire pool area only plastic water bottles but when my family went to use the pool on Saturday there were adults in all pools and spa drinking cans of beer all were visiting a bottom unit next to pool and spa they were also smoking on the balcony and when another paying guest said something they were told they don't have to abide by the rules because they weren't paying 200 a night wasn't happy at all
Clean apartment, lovely pool and spa. Would def go back. Only one street bank from the beach. It is under the flight path for the airport, but didn't bother us.
