    Loved our rental so much we stayed for another week. Easy 30 minute walk to PG. Incredible beach steps away. Loved it!

    Be aware there's only one car park per unit with a few visitors parks. I parked on the street which was fine no issues there. Seats were a little small for my bigger friends.

    Very cute unit that fit all of my friends perfectly. Comfortable beds in climate controlled rooms. A nice upstairs lounge and kitchen area that got a lot of sun. Felt very comfortable in the space and had a lovely time.

    We had to pre wash all cutlery and dishes before first use as they had not been cleaned properly by previous users. Downstairs, bedrooms and bathrooms in winter is an icebox even with an old air con that only heated the bedroom.

    Location to beach and shops. Upstairs was a great area.

    The house we stayed in was in need of some updating and maintenance. For example, some of the blinds were mouldy, the washing machine didn't work, the bedroom air conditioners didn't heat very well, some of the fittings were rusty, the mirror in the ensuite needed replacing. I guess these defects were reflected in the price which was very reasonable for the space and general quality of the accommodation.

    Very spacious and stylish accommodation. The upstairs living area was huge and the downstairs bedrooms were very comfortable. Although located on a very busy road it was quiet at night and the outlook over gardens and open space was pretty and restful. It was an easy 2 kilometer walk to the Perigian shopping centre and restaurants/cafes.

    Found it a little difficult to find the property when travelling on the main road, we drove straight past it a few times, also the second bathroom was not cleaned properly . There was rubbish left inside the cupboard from the previous tenants but overall the apartment was very clean and tidy.

    Loved how spacious the apartment was and the easy access and close location of the beach

    I'm a person who cares deeply about sleep. The first night was uncomfortable because the bed sheets and pillowcases smelled musty. The master bedroom and the master bathroom, to my expectations, needed a deeper cleaning, as several areas looked very dirty.

    A few small details could have improved the stay bath plug, pillows general wear and tear type items but given the challenges of sea front saltiness / erosion it’s not unexpected for the area.

    Good location for the beach - easy to walk to down the track. Good outdoor space, pool and tennis court and outside deck space. Handy for the central Peregian beach restaurants etc. only a short drive.

    The general level of dirt that would end up on the floor. The floor would get messy and probably would benefit from a floor mat outside the unit and one inside. There were a few roaches active at night

    Great location, just minutes from the beach by walk. Great unit design with the dining area on the first floor and living quarters on the ground floor Everything that we needed in the kitchen was there (except for salt and pepper) and the place was clean

    Cleanliness was lacking - ceiling fans and Venetian blinds hadn’t been cleaned in several months, some cushions had visible mould, stairs aren’t fully enclosed so very dangerous and slippery when raining - particularly with young children. Would’ve been helpful to have children’s (plastic) dishes and/or cutlery available.

    Great location, pool, tennis court, borrowing of beach equipment and spacious houses

    While it didn't worry me, my wife was a little worried if our daughter was downstairs and we were up as you can see the stairs (not internal but semi built in external stairs) and she worried someone might know she was downstairs by herself. However, the place itself felt totally safe to me. I would stay there again for sure.

    Well designed as you can sit on either deck and still fell like you have your own private space. Lovely listening to the surf and the walk to the beach was so beautiful listening to all the natural sounds. The beds were very comfortable and we got a good nights sleep every night. While you could walk along the beach (about 30 minutes) to the shops for lunch, since it was summer we decided to drive the 8 minutes and just relax. You could also (which we did) drive into Noosa in about 15 minutes for a nice meal there also. David Low Way is such a nice drive. The beach had just enough people so as to feel safe for a family, everyone was friendly. At The Retreat, the tennis court was fun, and a swim in the pool afterwards felt well deserved. Aircon was perfect, and the TV, streaming services and free WiFi a nice touch. We took some board games for our own pleasure, but there is plenty to do if you don't like that sort of thing.

    We didn’t expect the road noise when enjoying the lovely top half of house. Didn’t bother us at night though as the bedrooms are downstairs. Driveway a bit fiddly for parking.

    View of the water from high up back deck. Breezes enjoyed there with coffee were worth the drive up from the Gold Coast. Very relaxing. Helpful friendly staff. Kids enjoyed the well lit pool at night. The unique house design was appreciated and all was clean and ready for our break when we arrived. Managers even express posted me the chargers we left behind. Great showers. Thanks for a great stay.
