“Location can't be beaten...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2010

person found this review helpful

My partner and I stayed here for 3 nights in a 2brm apartment. Really fantastic location (beach views, close to beach access and centre of town). Apartment was really well appointed. There were many famalies staying during our stay who were in the pool early and for much of the day. It didn't worry us but might worry others if you're looking for a quiet romantic get away.

“Fantastic Family Holiday”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 September 2010

people found this review helpful

We stayed here from the 31/08 until the 9/10/10, in a 2 bedroom, Ocean View apartment, and all i could say is 'Wow". Booked through "Wotif". Originally felt apartment lacked the modern touch, however i was so wrong, after a few Days, we realised, what a great place this really was. We have 2 young kids, 1 and 3, so we went for a 1st floor apartment so we could have a bit more privacy, the views of the beach were perfect, you could hear the waves at night and it was amazing, the location was outstanding (not even a pleasent 5 min walk into town), pool was bigger than what it looks over the internet, Spa was nicely heated, coffee shop downstairs was handy and had beautiful baked muffins daily, and beach across the road is patrolled. Normally we stay in 5 star accom, however decided to overlook all the little luxuries and overall had a fantastic holiday at a great place. Considering returning next year. Overall PD is pretty pricey. A few tips: Visit Swish for Dinner and kids dine for free with each paying adult, Tin Shed is another not bad priced place for drinks/dinner, Mango Jam had great food, the Seafood Shop behind Coles had the best prawns/fish we had in PD. Have visited PD 5 times in the past and look forward to many more! one more tip, dont bother hiring a car for your entire trip, as you wont need it if you stay at Beaches Apartments!

“Not a hotel - they're apartments!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 May 2010

The good bits - spacious, clean, very handy to the main street. Less good - a bit tired, not cheap, and the sea views are from verandahs which all overlook each other. I'll stick to Noosa in future!
