Very spacious and comfortable apartment style accommodation. Wasn’t very busy or crowded which we liked. Check in was friendly and easy. Good amenities inside apartment and parking on site. Pool was supposed to be heated but it didn’t feel like it. Some areas inside the apartment smelled mouldy and unpleasant. However, overall was good value for money.

Hi , Thank you for your review. We are happy you enjoyed your stay. The pool is solar heated so at this time of the year it can still be a bit cool as the temperature's at night have been very cold recently, which takes a long time to try and heat back up during the shortened daylight hours.We look forward to seeing againKind regardsBeaches Apartments

We arrived around 12pm and asked if we could check in a bit early. We were told we cant check in early despite the apartment been ready for check in. This was very unusual service considering the property was quite on Friday. Then when we actually tecieved the key we walked into the unit the smell was horrible. It had a moldy smell and cleaning products used didnt leave a nice scent at all. The carpet was ripped in the lounge and the unit felt outdated. Overall it was disappointing

Thank you for your feedback. Check in is from 2pm and you did arrive early. Unfortunately the room was not ready at 12pm as the housekeepers were still cleaning. as soon as the room was ready you were provided the keys and did check in prior to 2pm. you were also able to use the pool area while you waited.The cleaning products we use are all environmentally friendly with natural fragrances. we are aware of a small rip that a prior guest has done in the carpet and we are in the process of getting this repaired.Sorry you were disappointed with you stay and that we didn't meet your expectations.Kind regardsBeaches Apartments

The quality of the accommodation was ok. If you don't like breathing in smoke, then this accommodation is not for you. Smoking is allowed in all outdoor areas, including room balconies and courtyards. So when we were in our courtyard, in our rooms with the windows/screen doors open or using the pools, there were constantly breathing in smoke.

We were pleasantly surprised by neatly presented and well thought out apartment. Bed was massive with starched clean sheets, yes please! Our ground floor apartment had a neat privacy hedge around it. Pool was clean and well presented as was the complimentary Beaches putt putt circuit. Other guests were out enjoying amenities and playing music but never felt overcrowded. Would book again.

The apartment was very, very clean, quiet and well appointed. I was very pleased to find a teapot and coffee plunger as well as the usual kitchen implements. The communication was excellent for my arrival and departure. Beaches Resort is in a convenient spot almost half way between Shoal Bay and Nelson Bay. Highly recommend.
