The apartment was dated and lacking in the small things like a shelf in the shower to put things on, no spare toilet rolls or hand towels and not enough tea, coffee and milk supplied for 2 people for 4 days. The upside is that it is within walking distance to shops, beach and transport.

IRRESPONSIBLE !!!

BED BUGS! After having spent a satisfactory first week despite a broken and unreplaced dryer, we decided to come back for a second week and were accommodated in another apartment. From the first day, we had reported a strong smell of damp and a clear lack of kitchen utensils. In addition, we had noticed some traces in the bed in the middle of the week, but it was only on Sunday lunchtime when we were remaking the bed that we understood that there were bedbugs in the mattress. We immediately contacted the emergency service who did not want to do anything or even offer alternative emergency accommodation despite our insistence (we only had one night left). It is absolutely scandalous! Of course, we immediately left the hotel and took a room only 5 minutes away at our expense... The next day, they did everything they could to apologize miserably by offering - A refund for the last night!!! WELL DONE, NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE.

The property is in a Great location for everything and the lady at reception when we booked in was very accommodating and friendly The inside of the apartment is in need of some updating in terms of furniture and equipment provided. Little things like one roll of toilet paper and one dishwashing tablet provided then your on your own seems a Bit petty

The room smelt terribly, carpets and curtains were stained and moldy, towels had hair on them and stains, toilet seat had huge cracks full of germs, customer service was shocking. Kids couldnt stop iching themselves all night so we had to leave ASAP in the morning. Definately not a 3 star property as advertised so many OTHER beautiful accommodatation places in broadbeach. Dont waste you money or holiday at this place.

I booked this property as I was attending a conference nearby. I was not told about having to check in before 4pm when I booked. After a long day I arrived at my hotel to find we were locked out and nowhere to stay. I rang the "out of hours" phone number at least 10 times and left messages and sent multiple emails, STILL have not heard back. AND they kept my money! AVOID THIS RIP OFF HOTEL

I did not stay at Aruba Surf Resort; they do not respond to communications outside reception hours; I was not provided a key and could not check in. They demanded photo id by email (without explanation) after the refund expiry and left me locked out, unable to contact anyone, looking for alternate accommodation on a weekend afternoon.
