The hotel is nestled in lush greenery, providing a relaxing atmosphere away from the bustling areas of the Gold Coast. The rooms are exceptionally clean and spacious, adding to a comfortable stay. However, the service fell short on a few occasions and the dining options didn't quite meet expectations. Overall, it's a decent place for a getaway, but not without its flaws.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were spacious but a bit dusty, and the long walk from the parking area was a hassle, especially in the rain. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and the facilities were decent. Unfortunately, the location was marred by an unpleasant view of a car park, which was disappointing. Overall, it was a decent stay but with some room for improvement.

My stay was quite pleasant overall. The hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful, making my visit enjoyable. The location was beautiful and conveniently close to shops and cafes, though it wasn't the easiest to get to downtown. On the downside, my room wasn't as clean as I hoped, and I did have some unwelcome insect friends. However, the facilities and amenities were good, providing decent value for the price.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was fabulous, perfect for relaxing and close to nice restaurants, making it easy to enjoy my time here. However, the rooms did need some attention, and I was a bit disappointed with the check-in process and the cleanliness. The staff were welcoming and made us feel like family, though, which really helped balance things out.

The rooms were nice but not ideal since I was on the ground floor and only accessible via stairs, which was tough for my mother. They faced away from the pools and gardens, and unfortunately, the mini bar had used items from previous guests.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was nice, especially with some kangaroos lounging right outside our sliding door, which was a pleasant surprise. The staff was friendly but service was a bit slow at times. While the rooms suited our needs, they weren't as special as I had hoped. Overall, it's a decent option, but there are definitely areas that could use improvement.
