Royal Mail Hotel

8/10 Good

"Clean room, parking available. Pretty good overall. The only hiccup was the milk in the fridge has already been opened, we advised the staff who said she would let house keeping know, but we never got an replacement."

The Point Coolum Beach

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay here again. The villa was beautiful, with stunning views, comfortable beds, and everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The staff were lovely, and the communication from booking through to check-out was excellent. We highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable place to stay, and we’ll certainly be recommending it to our family and friends. Thank you for such a fantastic experience!"

Currimundi Hotel Motel

10/10 Excellent

"The manager was more than accommodating assisting us to have a quiet room upstairs. Rooms are clean and tidy. Bed linen is high quality and comfortable beds. Love the addition of cereal included in the room We''ve been staying here a few times on our drive up and down QLD. Good safe place and ideal with kids with the pool and entertainment when eating in the beer garden"

Rumba Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely loved the property,felt so luxurious. Was beautifully decorated and had a huge amount of space for our family of 5. Beds were all so comfortable,and felt like a treat. Outside balcony was fabulous and with views of the water was magical. Loved the facilities ,the pool,jacuzzi etc . All interactions with staff were very positive. Loved the location,so handy for morning walks,coffees etc. only downside was that being above the cafes and bars it could get quite loud. Were often woken by the cafes in the morning and the nights that the bars had live music,it was incredibly loud making a quiet night in front a movie quite difficult. Not much the resort can do about that,but worth being aware of if you are looking to completely relax. Was the only minor downside to an otherwise fantastic stay"
