North Tamborine

8/10 Good

Overall, it was a very nice stay. The property is well maintained and in a peaceful location. There appears to be only a few cottages/rooms. The rooms are modern, plush and very comfortable. Some nice extra touches in the rooms. Nice, thick robes, good toiletries and also some self catering items (kettle, toaster, fridge, cutlery etc). The only thing that is somewhat negative, is the WI-FI situation. It initially appeared (according to the in-room booklet) that there was only WI-FI available in...

The staff were all friendly and helpful throughout our stay, and the location is perfect being right next to The Star Casino which made everything really convenient. The only small hiccup was during check-in...

Great hotel with great breakfast buffet, so much choice. Location was perfect 10 mins walk to beach and tram stop opposite hotel. 2 small pools either side of hotel so always having sunshine! Only issue was our toilet didnt flush properly, mentioned it to reception who sent a plumber out straight away but after he had gone still didn't flush properly! But all in all would definitely stay again and would recommend.
