Excellent location, right across to the beach. Great coffee just down stairs. Beautiful views from every room of our ocean view apartment. Apartment very spacious, comfortable beds, kitchen had most things you would need. 2 bathrooms was very nice. Pool and bbq area was lovely. Would definitely stay again.

Run-down. Air-conditioning lacking. Horrible, hard-to-get wifi: need to register and become a loyalty program member only to get an unstable internet connection for one device. Elevators constantly out of order: only one of three typically works. Drier no working. Poor provisions: one bath towel per person. Splurge a bit more if you can.

Fabulous property - so close to all you need. Facilities are fantastic and very clean. Only complaint was the room was sold as ‘air-conditioned’. However there was only air in the living space not in the bedrooms. It was very warm at night even with the ceiling fans on full speed. Expedia need to change to show air conditioning not in bedrooms. This was for room 15D. May not be for all rooms - but best to check when booking. Otherwise our stay was wonderful and we have no complaints! Thank you for such a lovely stay.

Overall a good experience. Was a good sized two bed apartment with kitchen and large lounge with nice city views via a big corner balcony. Easy walk to Surfers shops and supermarkets. No noise from other rooms or floors (we were on 11). Lots of street noise with the tram passing directly below, but won't bother anyone use to living in a city. I can see why some reviewers find the place a little "dated." Little things like marks on the walls, some shabby bits of furniture, and some cheap tables/chair (though doesn't seem consistant - one room I visited had much nicer stuff), poorly sealing outside doors (the whistling wind was constant at times), woobly tiles, an oven that took literally an hour to get to heat, and paint over doorjams making them stick let's the place down. Cleanliness was ok, but dishes needed rewashed as they ask the occupants to do so at the end and it was done poorly. A new set of sterilised dishes and cutlery (which were also rather cheap) would be much preferred. Main gripe would be we didn't get the internet codes until five days in, you have to sign up to their "club," to get it, and ultimately had to ask. Similarly the supply of basics like tea/coffee/sugar were minimal and needed to be purchased (along with oil, salt, pepper,etc). In comparison I stayed two nights at what is likely the most budget place in Surfers just prior and had wifi on arrival, daily service, and as many of the basics as I needed (plus snacks!).

Perfect stay for my family in the 2 bedroom apartment - friendly staff, check in was a breeze and they even helped with bookings for the theme parks; close to tram station, surfers paradise beach, dining, shopping and entertainment areas.. only a hop and skip away from the beach ~ literally. The apartment had everything we needed, so spacious and a balcony with a view. May only need to add a TV in the room/s as well..

Perfect location, we booked a city view apartment and still got access to the beautiful views of the ocean! My children loved the indoor heated pool and spa which was perfect for the cooler days. Pools tiles need a deep clean however did not stop us from using the amenities. Room is well equipped with everything you need! Blankets do require a wash as we noticed stains on our blankets however sheets and towels were clean. Foxtell kept the children entertained while we were not roaming the streets of surfers paradise. I loved having access to the washing machine and dryer which meant I didn't need to pack alot of clothing. We felt safe and welcomed and were greeted by friendly staff. Thankyou Breakfree!

Needs a good scrub
Unfortunately our 2 bedroom apartment could have done with a good scrub. It had an overall grimey feel, a lot of mould & deterioration. We had to clean the fans & aircon prior to use as they were coated in dust/dirt. Not enough consumables provided i.e sink plugs, tissues, detergent. Very convenient location but wouldnt stay here again

Big spacious apartments on the beach. Directly across From lifeguards. Hard to choose where to swim as the ocean was beautiful but the hotel pool was also nice and clean with well maintained relaxing gardens. The apartment was dated, but large and clean. We were really happy staying here and would definitely stay again. Lee on the front desk was so helpful and really helped us out with accomodating our group.

Our group of travellers was quite large - booking 3 apartments. All apartments were very different from the next. Ours was modern, clean, mint condition, well styled etc. loved it! It also had split systems in all bedrooms and entertaining space which was fantastic!! The others look like they needed a little update and at the least required better couches and split systems in bedrooms. The property was great though! Well Located, clean, all the main things needed for a stay away, and lovely reception too. A gym would’ve been great also. But I can’t complain. It was great also due to not being a mega large property - the lifts were easy to catch and didn’t mean waiting for long periods Of time etc. loved it overall! Ps. The best part was the clear beach views!! From all apartments 👏👏

Short break at Gold Coast
The location is good, very close to shops & restaurants. The apartment is very comfortable and well furnished. The only negative thing is that the air-condition is on a 2hr timer; how inconvenient and inconsiderate it is having to get up in the middle of the night to restart the air-con every two hrs!!!

We had a great stay, the unit was clean and had an uninterrupted view of the ocean off the narrow but wrap around balcony (11J). It had a modern kitchen with full size fridge, microwave, kettle, plates, cups etc. 2 bedrooms (1x King and 2 x single beds) and each bedroom had its own bathroom with modern shower and toilet which we found great with 2 teenagers (note: no bath). The unit has been updated although clearly an older building originally. Comfy lounge and airchairs, TV and Foxtel unit which gave a selection of movies when needed. Wi fi was available but we didnt use it so cant comment on speed etc. The carpark underneath the building was very tight in areas but included with unit so can't complain. It has an indoor heated pool, spa and sauna and an outdoor pool as well. There is also a drink vending machine in reception but no food. Starter pack of small milk, tea and coffee were included. Reverse cycle air con in lounge area only but we found the rooms quite warm at night anyway (July) Basic fans in bedrooms and windows open slightly for breeze. Unsure how cool it would be in summer. No flyscreens/security screens on windows or doors. Had a modern washing machine and dryer, ironing board and iron which all came in handy. Overall a great unit, would definitely stay again, reception was lovely and helpful also. Walking distance to cafes and Cavill Ave. Only negative, ocean seemed loud at night but we came from regional area. Patrolled beach across road was very handy.
