Great location at a reasonable price, a few small items in apartment to be addressed but nothing that impacted our stay too much. Parking access is excellent and tall enough for most utes and SUV’s. Best is the short walk to dining and entertainment options. You can eat out for a fortnight without using the car and never visit the same place twice. Beach access is straight across the rd, and only 100 m to the safety of the lights for safely crossing the esplanade in busy periods.

Fines fines fines. Forget to return the key - $40 fine, lockout $50 fine, don’t take the bins out when you leave - fine! Nice place but using the excuse of ‘self managed’ at about $400 a day to skimp on property services and make more money.
Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2023
Response from Zenith Management on 21 Nov 2023
Dear Jeffrey, No need to exaggerate. However, we are sure that makes you a great story teller. Just to clarify - replacement key fee is 25.00 not 40.00. However, if you take care of your belongings - this should never occur. Yes, an after hours lock out fee is 50.00 for our on-call staff who will return to work at all hours to assist guests who have lost a key. And again, not sure where this 400.00 price has come out of (but we don't want or need to know)We highly recommend you choosing at a hotel with a 24 hour reception in future. It might be more better suited for you. Most people do not loose keys nor get locked out, but are highly understandable about an after hours on-call fee due the fact loosing a key comes down to their own negligence. Kind regards, Zenith team.

Was an awesome property and will definitely stay there again. Only issue was it really needed a good dust everywhere but in particularly under the beds. The blankets needed a decent dust and clean too. The showers needed a good clean and it felt like they were just given a good ‘once over’ but needed more of a proper clean!

Our recent stay at THE ZENITH was one of the very best holidays we have ever had. We stayed in a 2BDR DELUXE which was absolutely beautiful with modern furnishings & a wonderful view. Location is perfect… so close to the beach & shops as well as the Night Markets. The Management were brilliant & made us feel very welcome throughout our stay. Thanks for a memorable holiday & we can’t wait to return again!

The view was beautiful. Apartments were not clean and there was mould in our bathroom. The manager was extremely rude and verbally attacked me, accusing me of something I didn’t do, told us they had evidence and when asked to show us it Kevin couldn’t because the evidence didn’t exist. Kevin the manager ruined our holiday. I would never stay here again after the terrible treatment I received.

The property manager was extremely rude to our daughter, berating her for parking in a spare space that was actually allocated to her by a staff member from Zenith Apartments. Our daughter called ahead of our stay to enquire about parking and was allocated a spot that wasn’t being used by a current guest. The next day, upon our return from a day out (at about 5pm), she had to contact the after hours number to advise that her allocated spot had another vehicle parked in it. The property manager, who had to return from walking his dog, was extremely rude to her questioning why she thought she could park there in the first place and then questioned if she had paid for the spot (she was never asked to) making her feel extremely uncomfortable. She also witnessed him berating another family when their toddler accidentally ran into the glass sliding doors (face first) - he showed absolutely no concern for the child’s welfare, he was only concerned with the cost of servicing the doors. Even though the parents were extremely apologetic, he dismissed their apology and stated it was due to their child being uncontrolled. The internet was basically non-existent until the last day when we had to make sure our apartment was available for technicians to install a new wireless router - we had less than 24 hours notice that this would be occurring. Only 1 lift was available for most of our stay - not ideal when all of the apartments were at capacity.

We really enjoyed our stay at Zenith. The location is second to none, the staff are friendly and truly take pride in the complex, and the amenities are terrific. We came during an unusual winter cold-snap and found our apartment cold and drafty on a couple of days, so ran the heater quite a bit and rugged up. But being unusual weather it’s to be expected. We’ll definitely stay here again and absolutely recommend Zenith Apartments.
