Great location and ammenities with pool, games room, mini golf and beach access. The previous clean was not completed in full with some a towel from the previous occupancy left behind a door and some placemats left dirty but otherwise good with the bathrooms and bedsheets well prepared.

Our apartment was very tired and rundown. Definately in need of a refurbish. My friend who stayed had lovely apartments which had new kitchens, bathrooms and furniture. We definately drew the the short straw. Oven didn't work and kitchen full of ants, certainly not ideal. The view was amazing though.

Paid for a superior ocean view room, the room was by no means superior or updated. Old furniture and the ensuite bathroom was un-usable due to its faul smell. Only good thing was the pool area (specifically toddler pool for our 2yo) and the balcony view was lovely.

Just too cute for us olds - contactless is much harder for us than dealing with receptionist - a booking code issued that you don't use, a key code also has to be issued - before this you have to book in on line with excessive info required that you have to look up - just too hard - be going different venue next visit

The external amenity's were good, nice pools (i really enjoyed the fact there was a bit of access for disability), warm pool and clean, the tennis court was nice and the fact that we didnt need to pay for parking. The location was brilliant but it did mean at night on a Saturday it was VERY loud. Motorcycles, sirens etc. The view was stunning. Inside however our linen has stains, some blankets had "certain" stains which wasn't great. The apartment was dated but we are not fancy people so didnt bother us too much. I would prob. only stay again for the location. Being that i stayed in the more expensive unit i was supprised it didnt quite look like the photos. However the staff were extremely helpful and really nice to chat with. Bit of money could go to repairing / updating the rooms.

This apartment building was so close to the beach. The facilities managers were amazing and friendly. The residents that live in the building were so friendly. Could’ve asked for a better place to stay in a destination that I’ve never been before. Sunshine Coast is, in my opinion, 10 times better than Gold Coast it’s stunning.

The accommodation was excellent. The only negative I can mention is that the bedrooms do not have air conditioning. The fans kept us cool enough for a good nights sleep, however as the weather heats up, that may not be sufficient.

Absolutely loved the Mandolin, family friendly, very spacious rooms, with everything you need to cook if you didnt want to go out. Great facilities for the kids, with the headed pool being the perfect temp, the splash pad, games room, (pingpong and the claw machines) a tennis court and putt putt whats not to love..keeps the kids entertained, definitely a our new favourite 😍 💕

This was such a fantastic place to stay with my young family. The on-site amenities were great - especially the heated pools and putt putt - and it was just a hop, skip and a jump away from the beach. Bonus points for being close to cafes and restaurants, too. Communication was prompt and helpful at all times. We will definitely be back.
