The only thing this place has in it's favour is it's location . The rooms were small and the whole place could do with a good clean . The pool was cold and the spa was waem but the bubbles did not work . First the spa in our bathroom was not working and then the microwave did not work either nor did the phone . Manager was arrogant and unhelpful and woke my grandaughter up before 8 o'clock in the morning bashing down the door to have a look at the spa . I would not reccomend this place to any of my friends as I think there is better value for money around and would have moved out had I not pre-paid .

Our stay at the K resort was not an enjoyable one, on arrival with the kids we found the pool cold, enquiring at reception we were given 2 different excuses to why it was cold, they did apparently get it serviced but on our departure it was still cold, the spa was warm but the bubbles didn't work and with every child staying in the resort using it as a pool you were lucky to get your big toe in.
The rooms are outdated could do with a good clean (carpets, tiles, mould off the bathroom roof) beds need to be updated.
The security is very good and the grounds are well maintained, it is in a great position to the centre of Cavil ave and resturants.
Sound insulation is needed as you can hear people walking around above you and the toilet flushing...Far better places to stay...

If you know what you are getting yourselves into, then this is the place to be. I did the usual tripadvisor homework before placing a reservation. Definitely know that this is a value for money apartment and, hence, was prepared to stay there.

We are please with the apartment set up, we got the 2 bedroom apartment. Loved the kitchen, as it was a fully equipped one with pots and pans, cups, plates/bowls of varying sizes, utensils, etc - couldn't ask for more. We had a pleasant time cooking 2 huge meals and enjoying them at the dining table and in front of the tv.

Beds were ok, I can't tell a good bed from a bad one. As long as it keeps me sleeping at night, I'm contented. There wasn't any problems with the toilets although the toilets wasn't spectacular, but who sleeps in the toilets any way?

We rented a car, and absolutely loved the secure parking and the stairwell that had direct access to the car from under our block. The guy at the counter was extremely helpful and friendly during check-in and check-out.

Remember to do your own trash and wash your own dishes. Trash was just below our stairwell so it was about than 50 steps from our door.

Only downside was the cable channels, it was on AUSTAR but the apartment's subscription only had a few channels accessible.

If you're on a budget trip, this is highly recommended!

The K Resort in Surfers Paradise is a home away from home. Having travelled to Surfers several times, the location is perfect - a short walk to the beach, shops and cafes/restaurants. The location couldn't be better.

We booked a 3 bedroom apartment - it had a full size kitchen, separate laundry, living/dining room, balcony, two bathrooms (master with ensuite) - everything was full size. Couldn't fault anything. The pool is smaller than the photos but it was clean and the kids had a whale of a time!

My only criticism is they advertised air conditioning, but this wasn't included. It was an extra $15 per night for air conditioning which we happily paid as it was very hot and humid Surfers. Note that all rooms have ceiling fans which were fine but I don't handle the heat (humidity) too well!

A large bbq area too. Great place for couples and families. A little bit of noise late at night when the night clubbers come home (walking down the street to the youth hostels) but otherwise, couldn't recommend the place enough. Great value and fantastic location. The Surfers RSL Club is about ½ kilometre away and meals are cheap and HUGE!! We went there three times. Undercover, secure parking too.

Also, no free internet but the ISP used you buy blocks of time - which suited us perfectly.
