There was a lot of dust in our room upon checkin. Check-in was hard to get instructions for; thankfully my plane was delayed and our instructions were eventually sent to us after a friendly reminder. The photos we booked for were not the sight we got given upon payment The location was very convenient for walking distance to public transport and walking distance for attraction sites close by

I stayed for 4 nights with my two school-aged boys. The room was absolutely phenomenal, even more beautiful than expected! Just a short stroll to the beach which is perfect & just 2 minutes walk to trams & buses. The pools were very clean & the spa was sooooo nice & relaxing! Also the best sauna I've come across! The only suggestion would be a little playground or kids club for the tiny humans, & a cafe` or bar for the grown ups! Thanks you Ipanema Holiday Resort, we missed you the moment we said goodbye! See you again xoxo

The unit we stayed in was amazing. The bed was so comfortable. Even tho it is on the Gold Coast Highway, it was quiet. Kitchen facilities were awesome. Plenty of room for the 2 of us and still had room when the kids and grandkids came to visit for the day. Nice and close to the tram station so you don’t need to get the car out all the time. Will definitely stay here again.

Nice apartment but not enough towels for a 2 night stay, only 1 room key which is not ideal if trying to use facilities. One lift out of order whole stay and then the other broke down on day of departure, receptionist didn’t care and we had to carry luggage down 6 floors. Thanks to the tradies who helped my wife down the last two floors
