Positives: The Resort’s grounds and general amenities are very good and well maintained. The Resort has direct access to one of the best beach environments on the Sunshine Coast. We had great views of the ocean and Mudjimba Island from our 5th floor apartment balcony. A number of interesting cafes and bars are located nearby.
Negatives: Apartment 107 that we rented for a short stay was very disappointing. The apartment had only been partially cleaned. There was empty takeaway packaging left on the balcony. The kitchen benches needed wiping down. The refrigerator had food scraps left on the shelves. The dining room table had food residue stuck on the surface and needed wiping down. The oven grill had not been cleaned. The balcony glass panels and sliding doors were almost opaque from the salt air and needed cleaning. The screen doors to the balcony were stuck together at the latch due to rust and initially had to be prized apart to enter the balcony. The split A/C systems remote control was missing. The A/C unit condenser located on the balcony was heavily rusted and barely functional. The A/C unit really should be replaced. The black faux leather lounge was thread bare in places and had a coloured cloth and cushions hiding where the surface had delaminated.
Conclusion: The Resort does not appear to have minimum standard that apartments are required to maintain before they are made available for holiday rentals. We will not rent here again.

The unit itself was lovely. But we had no towels, no soap, no coffee, old soap still in soap holder from previous stay and not cleaned, no tea towel but had to clean before we left. Had to scrub microwave before we could use it as was filthy and plate had old cooked food all over it. Outside table still had food and drink spills all over it. Reception was supposed to be open from 9-12 on weekends no one in site. Thankfully we managed to get some towels on the second day. Position and area was lovely just very sad the cleanliness and staffing let it down.

After a reasonably efficient but not overly friendly check-in, we were confronted by a room that looked and felt dirty. The carpet looked like a crime scene and the walls weren't much better. We also discovered the fridge wasnt working so the management were kind enough to move us to another room.
Although the new room didn't have a roof top area, it was in a significantly better and cleaner state so we really felt like we dodged a bullet. Unfortunately, the room was far from perfect and we discovered used towels/tea towels and a dirty toliet/shower which grossed us out a little but it was still better than the "penthouse" apartment.
Apart from that, the view from the room was magnificent and the surrounding grounds were beautiful. Overall, Marcoola is a beautiful spot to visit but I wouldnt be rushing back to Marcoola Beach Resort.

Easy access to the beach.
3.0
Pros: easy check in, onsite parking, most facilities you need, bed was super comfortable although bedside tables rather than tall boy would be better
Cons: 2 towels for 3 guests, bathroom bins still had sanitary products from previous guests so clearly hadn’t been cleaned, both doonas have yellow stains as did a couple of pillows. Tv remote is temperamental. Switch to power the oven and hot plates is dangerous and unsafe - sizzles and crackle and hard to switch off.
Had a comfortable stay after working around the issues.

We really enjoyed our stay. Was close to everything we needed.
Caretaker was amazing, very helpful with directions when we arrived late at night.
Room was fairly dated, and smelt a bit musky, but was ok for what we needed.

We had a lovely stay but there were a few issues - reception is only open from 2pm-5pm, no batteries in tv remote, very little toilet paper with no additional rolls available (5 people in the apartment), we had to empty the dishwasher from the previous occupancy. The apartment was very comfortable though and the grounds and facilities lovely.

We stayed as a family of 3, the area was great, the previous occupants had put away uncleaned plates / cutlery which we washed, we couldn’t connect to any WiFi which was annoying.

The pool, spa and sauna were great, well maintained. The room was spacious but dusty. Dishes still in dish washer from previous guests and not well washed. Floor had barely been vaccumed and there was melted chocolate on leather couch.

We arrived at 2:30pm on a Saturday and the reception was closed. The caretaker said he tried to call me but I didn’t receive a call.
The townhouse wasn’t clean. Empty toiletry bottles were left in the shower, wet towels in the dryer and a laundry sink full of someone else’s belongings. There were no additional bin liners, no sponges for cleaning dishes or wiping benches. The bed was so creaky when you moved that I was conscious of it all night.
The house it self was nice and spacious and served its purpose. The pool and spa were great and the proximity to the beach was wonderful.

Pros
Close to the beach and dining areas. Local to beaches and not too far from bigger areas like noosa and Maroochydore.
CONS:
Roof in main bedroom filthy with dust or mould, tv in bedroom and the blinds dusty. Cabinet behind the couch has mould and dust all over, tables were dusty inside and out. No cleaning items for the kitchen. Shelves in bedroom were dusty

Unit 10 although very roomy smelt like dogs lived in the room, it was an awful smell. Complained to the person on reception who was disinterested. I have taken photos of the dirt on the furniture, smears on microwave, fridge, mirrors etc. Went to coles and purchased cleaning products to clean floors and bring the standard to a livable condition. Doona in the main bedroom also smelt like dogs.
Drawers were dirty, some pillows in cupboard were old and yellow/stained, some pillowslips had not been washed. Broken furniture in 3rd bedroom cupboards. Floors not vacuumed and outside area, which was a lovely large area was extremely dirty.
The surrounding gardens were lovely as was the outside atmosphere.
Would not recommend staying in this Unit 10 which is a large 3 bedroom unit with a lot of potential if it was looked after and cleaned.

Great space, great views clean and tidy spacious rooms! Very happy with the stay! Highly recommend

The property was ok. Unit was outdated. There was a hole in the wall behind the door. The little work cupboards in the wall for pipes was open and wouldn’t shut. Tv didn’t work apart from abc kids and no other options. No remote for master bedroom fan. Dining table and area around it was filthy. Check in staff were blunt and rude. You can’t close the windows in bedroom so stuck breathing in the smoke from neighbours smoking - not great with young kids.

The apartment was nice and big but we felt the place felt like it was for pensioners the guy who lived beneath came out of his room to make a point of hearing a bouncing ball to my son and making a joke offering him a knuckle sandwich, which only happened once on the 1st day and then therafter felt like qe had to tippytoe everywhere on the joint.The lounge/dining room didnt have all required blockout curtains so not very private the same was in the room for my children the main bedroom did but curtain runners werent all there so didnt shut properly.the wall mounted pedestal fan was full of dust fluff which wasnt appealing especially when children are allergic to dust mite.the exhaust fans in bathrooms were full of dust and fluff.

The position of the property on the beach was great. The grounds were beautiful with good clean amenities.

We paid for 7 guests but the room we were put in only had space for 6, only 6 towels, only 4 mugs etc Not enough for a 7 peraon group. Qe voiced this qith a member of staff who was all defensive but eventually left a foldaway bed at our door, after we spent a night on an extremely uncomfortable couch

Good family getaway. Right on the beach not far from Flags. Spacious apartment. Close walk to cafe’s and children’s playgrounds.

Location was good. Not a comfortable stay due to no decent cover on bedroom windows, when I queried this was flippantly told”that’s what we all have”, which is not true. Other Westerly facing windows have blinds and or outside shutters. The air conditioning didn’t reach the hot stuffy bedroom. Not cleaned very well either, lots of dust and general grubbiness on walls/doors. Very difficult to get into rooms, narrow walkway with stairs .

We stayed in this same apartment 5 years ago, and unfortunately the condition of the apartment is showing it’s age. Cushions on lounge chairs were worn and ripped, and the inadequately stocked kitchen was missing essential items. When we reported this to the management the cutting board was replaced however no frypan or associated utensils were provided and this limited meal preparations. Dishwasher had rust and utensil basket was broken making washing difficult. Good location and views, however we would not stay here again.

Easy check in and rooms were spacious, though dated. We found the beds to be a little too soft, but otherwise the apartment provided for a comfortable stay. Good facilities - pool, spa, communal BBQs, tennis court and half basketball court. Bonus of easy access to the beach out the back gates of the apartment complex.
1.5
Not really pleased with a $60 surcharge for leaving one empty beer bottle in the apartment when we left. Apparently requiring "several hours" of extra cleaning. Other than that, the stay was fine, though there isn't much in Marcoola as such.

Very Clean Apartment
