"Absolutely HUGE apartment for just my husband and I! Right on the water so we enjoyed sunrises and sunsets, and the pool outside. Parking was safe and free, and dining options were just down the street. Perfect stay!"

5/5 Excellent

"We stayed in a two bedroom apartment. It was excellent. Very clean, with a starter pack of consumables. The unit was on the ground floor, this was outstanding as our groups average age was 70+. Reception was staffed by a lovely, thoughtful lady. The room had everything imaginable for a travelling party. The extent of inclusions available to us made this the best unit we have used."

5/5 Excellent

Convenient, comfortable stay in a great location

"This was a nice comfortable stay in a very convenient location halfway between the beach and the main shopping centre in Trinity Beach. The apartment is spacious and clean, as is the bathroom. A nice courtyard, good kitchen and modern washing machine and dryer. The bed was comfortable and the whole complex is nice and quiet for a great sleep. Restaurants, bars, the beach, shops and public transport are all less than 10 minutes casual walk. Check-in and check out were a breeze. Very friendly. Loved my stay and will definitely stay again. "

"This beach front property was right across from the swimmable part of the ocean. Had a pool, AC, Full Kitchen and large ocean view balcony. Great food options close by and walking distance to the Main Street for shopping. The lady at the reception desk made sure we had everything we needed and offered us suggestions on what to do while in town. "

5/5 Excellent

"This property was absolutely lovely! Set on a peaceful residential street with gated access, it offers beautiful views all around, especially from the backyard, where you can relax and take in the mountains, horses, and birdsong. The home is spotlessly clean with high-end furnishings and fixtures, and has everything you could possibly need, a real home away from home. I didn’t want to leave and only wish we’d booked a longer stay! It’s close to everything, a great shopping centre and beach — though a car is necessary. The owners are wonderful and live next door, so they’re nearby if you need anything. Highly recommend — you won’t be disappointed! "
