Poor customer service! I had to chase the service for checkout details and to find more details about the property, like where to get pool towels. Not as promised regarding access to the pool and spa.

This property is in a lovely area overlooking the sea. The 1br apartment we stayed in was a bit tired but that was fine for us. All the kitchen and laundry appliances worked fine and were clean. The main concern was security as one of the balcony doors didn't lock. We did report this to management (an older guy) but there was no repair or follow up communication in the 4 to 5 days we stayed after reporting it, apart from an initial assurance that someone would come to fix it. We found a way of securing it with a leather belt as a precaution while we slept. One other suggestion would be to deep clean the couch as it was pretty smelly. Apart from these it was great base for exploring the area and relaxing at the beach.

What a View!

In spite of my later arrival, ease of check in was terrific with an after hours key pick up available. Spotless, well appointed apartment with amenities and its patio within steps of the pool. Did I mention that the beach is directly across the street with beautifully paved walks, benches and palms swaying in the breeze? Great restaurants and shops, too!

Comfortable beach-facing apartments straight across Trinity beach. We had two cars and we had to park the other car next door which was the only annoying thing. You wouldn't go all the way to Cairns to stay in the apartment. So, if you are just looking for a nice, comfortable place close to the ocean, this is a perfect choice.

Amazing location. Super roomy. Great shower. Single beds in second room a bit average. Be ok for kids not so much adults. Loved the extra things like drying racks for togs. Was a bit of hike to get luggage up 4 flights of stairs. Pool was small but lovely.

Lovely outlook over the ocean (we were in the one- bedroom apartments block). The amenities in the apartment were just right for our needs. There was no lift but we soon got used to the steps. Recommended.
