Where to start. Our first room was atrocious. We checked in late and went straight for dinner. When we arrived back to our room, I noticed a smell, after 30min my breathing was restricted and I had a headache. I turned the lights on and noticed black mold around the air-conditioning vents and on the ceilings, the floor was also damp in area's. It was 10pm. I went to the reception area, no one there. I called the after hours number, spoke to a lady who advised there was nothing they could do until 8am the next day, when reception opened. Obviously I advised that this was not good enough, the room was affecting my health and I couldn't stay in it. She was not empathetic at all, and could not help until 8am. I asked if they would reimburse me for the cost if anither room, at a different hotel, the answer was no. I went back to my room, and told my wife and two children that they were not going to help until 8am. There was one bedroom without air-conditioning, and little mold. My wife and kids slept in there. I couldn't, i stayed on the balcony for the entire night, getting no sleep. I called WOTIF, initially you guy's were helpful and empathetic. Offered to give me vouchers as compensation. Then I was transferred to a very unhelpful, inconsiderate person who did not want to help.. The following day, at 8am, I politely advised of my dissatisfaction with regards to the service and respect i was afforded as their customer. Still no vouchers from WOTIF..

Good location but place was a little tired
Overall a good stay. Room was quite tired though and bathrooms very underwhelming. Wifi was very poor and didn’t know how to get it until I asked and then had to join Accor to get it free. No towel change in 7 nights so same towels for showers and pool/spa use. Good location and pool facilities.

Amazing View
We enjoyed our second stay at Break Free Grand Pacific Resort in Caloundra. Break Free Grand Pacific Resort is located a really short walk away from Caloundra shops and restaurants. The pool and spa area is really nice and they are a lovely temperature. The view from our appointment was amazing. We did notice that the carpets and mats in our apartment were stained in places. Overall we will differently stay at Grand Pacific Resort next time we holiday in Caloundra.

Fantastic
We stayed there as we had a family wedding in Montville. Stacy on Reception, was very friendly on check in and helpful throughout our stay. This was probably the cleanest and best Breakfree property we have stayed at. Very centrally located on the main steeet of Caloundra. We will definitely be back!

The resort apartment balcony had a lovely outlook over the pool & waterfront. The pool was lovely. The apartment itself was spacious but dated. The bathrooms were in very much need of an upgrade (both toilet seat lids were broken, cracked floor tiles). The bedrooms both had clear glass tiles above the beds which backed onto the corridor from the lift and the lights were on all night. There were roller blinds covering but light was still coming through. Considering the price we paid, I was disappointed with parts of the accommodation.

Property was beautiful and I loved the rooftop spa. Be very careful with the stairs to the spa as they are steep and squished into the corner.

The location is fabulous and the staff were helpful and friendly which made for an enjoyable stay. The only negative comments we have are the unit we stayed in had an uncomofrtable bed in the main bedroom and the kitchen wasn't very well stocked with kitchen equipment.

Location was perfect. Close to cafes and beach. Perfect view. Kitchen was clean but oven trays had been left covered in alfoil. Cupboards and drawers were stocked adequately. Stops there. Overall it is very dirty and very run down. Mould in apartment at DANGEROUS levels. Two asthmatics suffered ongoing breathing difficulties due to this. Windows were closed on first night but the mould was so bad the two people had very bad asthma all night. They are still recovering. Windows open less than 10cm, some no longer opened due to being stuck. Window frames were dusty/cobwebs. No windows in laundry, toilet, bathroom nor en-suite. Tan couches were so filthy that high touch areas were brown with dirt/grime. I covered couches with spare sheets as they were so gross. ALL doors and high touch areas were dirty/grimy. The floor tiles were literally black with dirt - felt grimy/sticky underfoot. The broom closet was stuffed with junk. There was a broom but nothing to sweep mess up with. The three bedroom units overlook the pool and rooftops of the other units. This is not shown in the photos. The photos show craftily angled shots of the view. Old resorts can still be clean. I cleaned some grime to see if it was cleanable and yes, it was. Only thing clean here is the bedsheets. It is an unhealthy place to stay. Don’t do it.
