We chose Holiday Holiday H Residences for its location in the Hilton building, at a fraction of the price. It shares the pool, secure parking and entrance; so convenient for beach, shops, restaurants and nightlife.
It can be noisy (till 3am) but ok with the windows closed and Aircon on, for light sleepers.
Checkin/out, luggage storage and support is nearby at chevron renaissance, which has 2hrs free parking and Coles supermarket/Liquorland for supplies while you wait to checkin.
Could do with more than 1 towel per person but there’s a washer, tumble dryer, dishwasher and all mod cons. Good Wi-Fi, modern spacious apartments.
Overall excellent value, great ocean views and highly recommended!
