Beautiful water view's very relaxing. Just a few problems, needs to have the unit fumigated. Lots of very tiny ants & cockies. Also had to rewash all crockery, Cutlery and glasses as they were dirty.

The view was amazing. Straight out over the ocean able to watch the boats go out each morning and return, lots of birds. Property was a little dated but quite acceptable.

The outlook of the ocean, the immediate access to the beach, the close proximity to the lap pool, the peace and quiet, the short walk (20 mins) to the long, Urangan pier and shops, the large area of kitchen/lounge and bedroom.

This property is inhabited by what looks like a mix of permanent/semi permanent resident retirees on the one hand and tourists on the other. We found it a mixed experience: the apartment was not very comfortable with cheap furniture and fittings throughout and truly awful fluro lighting.
Incredibly, there is NO wifi. In this day and age??? Compounding this problem is that the 4g signal was barely there. So no Netflix streaming etc on your device.
There was a DVD player with some unwatchable, dated dvds. But the remote didn't work!
The 'kitchen' was very poor - basic, with one hotplate.
The mattress was cheap but ok but the blankets supplied were woefully inadequate.
Lastly, I had plugged in my Tesla electric car into the 10 amp socket on the back wall of our allocated car space to simply maintain the basic functionality of the car, but someone in their wisdom decided to switch off the outlet for some inexplicable reason. Not a good feeling to have your vehicle interfered with by, presumably, a resident trying to save electricity or a groundperson for reasons I can't begin to understand.
On the positive side, the location is excellent for whale watching trips and there was a view of the ocean and beach access.
A generous 2 stars out of 5.

Everything was fine, except the fact that wifi is not offered at all. No option to even pay for wifi. It felt like we were back in the 1990s when the internet was a luxury and most people did not have access to it. This not made explicit in the description of the property.

Great view of Fraser Island, quiet and peaceful.
Pool was nice after a game of tennis.
Place needs some freshing up as it shows signs of its age.

Would have liked wifi without having to pay $200 deposit but pretty good to a while to find the dishwashing liquid was not obvious , but great place to stay other wise close to the boat club for cruises and nice food

Cathy at reception was friendly, helpful and welcoming and attended to any problems or needs quickly and efficiently.
We had a few maintenence issues and the maintenence team arrived promptly and immediately resolved all 3 problems. They were also friendly and helpful.

Didn't like that the air con wasn't on before we got there and the only air con is in the lounge room. We had to drag the mattress out to the lounge room floor to try and get some sleep with the unit being so hot

Unit was clean and tidy, everything was nice. If I had to be picky, the blinds didn’t shut properly and 2 of the bedrooms had pedestals fans - I thought the unit was air conditioned through out which made it quite warm. But overall enjoyed the stay and view
