They have no lift, an underground car park and 3 levels of rooms, so be prepared to carry your luggage up a bunch of stairs. View isn’t great, fines if you don’t empty your own bins and clean the room yourself before checking out and a lack of power points in bedrooms. The office team are extremely lovely and helpful and the location isn’t too bad.

We do advertise as a walk up Belinda and all our apartments overlook the gardens and pool with the exception of the Rooftop apartments. Double power points are on either side of the bed in the main bedroom and 1 double power point in the 2nd bedroom.

Left a lot to be desired
Checking in gave me high hopes for the property that unfortunately were not met. Be aware that the parking garage is incredibly steep. Both my sister and I drive manual vehicles which required some skill to safely get up the incline. Our access key for the parking garage also died less than 24hrs into our stay, which wasn’t a huge problem in itself except we couldn’t contact the property manager for 24hrs and therefore couldn’t get our vehicle out of the garage. Property was reasonably tidy but very small especially for the 4 of us - better suited to 2 people. The balcony door wouldn’t lock (and wasn’t locked when we arrived) which is concerning for security considering it was only 3 storeys up. We also had paid the premium for the rooftop apartment which was certainly not worth the surcharge. To top it off the building is walk up only, which was a struggle in wedding heels, this in itself isn’t a huge deal but didn’t add any positivity to our stay. Frankly, there are nicer properties in the area for around the same price. I wouldn’t recommend this property and won’t be staying again unfortunately

Dissapointing to hear you were unhappy with your stay and said nothing on departure Gina. The underground parking is steep as most is with most people managing it easily. Your remote going flat can and will happen as it is powered by a small button button but it did not take 24hr to contact me as we live on site and I changed it as soon as you told me. We are a walk up and make no secret of it and the heels may have been harder but they can come off. The are other properties around but are not as affordable as us wich is why you didnt book with them and can next time...

Very Nice Holiday Unit and Well Equipped
One block from lovely Maroochydore Beach and short walk to Cotton Tree and Maroochy River. I stayed in unit 5 on lower level above office and it was a nice modern unit with plenty of supplies to make it feel like home. Books to read, washing machine and dryer and equipped kitchen but OMG please buy some new pots and pans, they are terrible and EVERYTHING sticks to them and very hard to scrub clean. The units are individually owned so I assume there would be differences in each unit. I enjoyed most of my stay here except for some noise, mostly from other guests. The stairwell is on the outside and people talking and stomping up and down the stairs and from guests in rooms above the noise does travel. The roof top is awesome with outdoor furniture. Nice pool but its Winter so no swimming for me. I would stay at Burlington again but only if I was placed on top floor. The property is managed by a couple and they are very nice people.

The two bedroom apartment was on the ground floor with easy access to the pool. There was an outdoor table with umbrella. The apartment was tastefully decorated. The only trouble we had was getting all of the lights to work. We did enjoy our stay.

Last minute overnighter
Good location, comfortable room but beds were not great. However it was a last minute thing as we had no power at home so maybe we were a little stressed. Shower was great but pipes a bit noisy. Didnt have time to explore the facilities so cant comment on those. Reception was helpful confirming our last minute booking on a Sunday afternoon

A little disappointing
An older style but clean and in good condition. Two negatives:- 1. No AC in the bedroom. 2 Office closes at 5pm and you have to give 24 hours notice in order to get keys after hours which I didn't happen to see in time. Never had that before.
Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2020
Response from Kevin on 7 Mar 2020
Hi Gary, Sorry to see by this review you were a little dissapointed and did not say anything while you were here. Yes the AC is in the Bedrooms and large enough to cool the entire apaartment along with ceiling fans. In response to reception hours closing at 5pm this information is automatically generated instantly on completion of the booking and asks for an ETA from you. If you inform us you will arrive after hours we send the information at that time with directions to gain access. The only mention of 24hours on your conformation is that we are NOT 24hr reception and to let us know if your travel arrangements need our attension.

A warm welcome from the owners was the start of a lovely few days at the Burlington. Surrounded by lush gardens, it might be a little older and less luxurious as neighbouring apartment complexes, but old-fashioned hospitality, safety, and cleanliness more than make up for it. In a great location, the Cotton Tree shops are within a 5-10 minute walk, The Maroochydore S. C., library, bowls club, tennis club, and beaches are literally at your doorstep with cafes and restaurants very close to the complex. It has everything you need for a great holiday! Thank you, Kevin! 🙂

Burlington is a fantastic place to stay
Burlington is a fantastic place to stay because it is so close to the beach and river. I took a daily walk down up the beach to the river and back and enjoyed every minute. Small shops and takeaways are only five minutes walk away and some of the best restaurants on the coast are just minutes walk away with a large shopping centre fifteen minutes walk away. We stayed on the second floor and for us it was no problem but the apartment was walk up so we needed to negotiate four flights of stairs (six from the car park) Burlington is just at the best spot on the coast and the apartment itself was very roomy and comfortable

Extremely sorry to here the bed was not comfortable for you as we have medium class comfort in all our apartments but will definitely look at the mattress condition in light of your review. Unfortunately that is the only apartment without A/C and guests are normally OK with the sea breezes and fans in that apartment although it was very hot over your stay. As for the rubbish under the lounge we sincerely apologize for this being overlooked in the cleaning as we pride ourselves on the standard we present and will take this up with housekeeping. Thank you for taking the time to give us this feedback and we hope to see you again. Next time we can offer you a different apartment.

Good apartment located close to beach
The apartments were in a good location for our stay as we wanted to be close to the surf club. The managers were very friendly and accommodated our late arrival. The apartment is a little dated but this did not deter from the functionality of it. It was clean and comfortable. There was no road noise from outside and the curtains did a good job of blocking the early light! It was good value for what we wanted. Thank you.

Nice hotel, close to the beach and restaurants
We recently enjoyed a 3 night stay at the Burlington, and found it to be a wonderful getaway destination. Late night check-in was not a problem as we arrived much later than expected on the first night. The room was lovely, it had quirky little touches to make it feel like home, from jigsaw puzzles and games to books and magazines, even a little teddy bear sitting on the top of the bookcase. The room was nicely air conditioned, which was a blessing as it was quite hot during our stay, plus all rooms had ceiling fans. The main bedroom had a compact, but serviceable, ensuite, and there was a clean, well-equiped kitchen. We were very happy with our stay at the Burlington and hope to return there one day.
