The rooms are beautifully appointed, the pool area looks stunning, and the staff are wonderful. However, at $560 a night for a room, I expect a superb sleeping experience. But my bed was hard, to the point where it interfered with my sleep. So completely below my expectations. In addition, the fish were missing from the pool (due to heavy rain, but still, snorkelling with the fish was a big reason why I took my family there, so it was disappointing), and the lagoon pool needed a clean. The food was wildly overpriced ($49 for a buffet brekkie, not including barista-made coffee). It feels like this hotel has priced itself at the standard it wants to be at, but is not at.

The bed was sooo soft I couldn’t sleep. Had to sleep on the floor. No extra quilts or blankets of any sort in the cupboards. Placed 2 bath towels over me. Ordered breaky in, and the eggs for the Eggs Benedict were underdone. Both of us couldn’t eat our breaky. Just left it, and departed. The bathroom was excellent.

We stayed on level 11 and across from our room there was a utility cupboard of some description which emitted a high pitch beeping for extended periods of time which become unbearable. We complained three times and three times staff advised they were sending up maintenance workers to look at it. I was really disappointed as you spend quite a bit of money to stay at such a luxury hotel and this was definitely far from relaxing. The only other negative from the experience was quality of toiletries. The hotel projects an eco friendly and locally sourced ethos, which is probably why they were also spruiking Ecoya products in the lobbby (from my understanding I believe they are Australian made), however, all their toiletries are cheap made in China products. I would absolutely expect from a luxury hotel to have luxury toiletries to match, even some cool local eco-luxe items, to match their ethos. The positives were many. All the staff were so friendly, the atmosphere was palatial, the pools were fantastic. The Citrique breakfast buffet was well worth the money. We will be back baby!

Been coming here for 15 years and just didn’t seem to be at the same standard it use to be. Our room didn’t get cleaned everyday, like they use too. We also waited over 30 mins for our drinks to be brought out to us by the pool, I understand it was busy but it would of been quicker for us to just go straight to the bar and order like what everyone around us was doing. The overall service just isn’t at the same level it use to be which is a shame, and with all the renovations which have occurred we were expecting it to be even better. Hopefully it was just a once off, will try once more but if experience is the same, it’s definitely not worth the money and more.

Liked the welcome drink. Thought that paid parking at the hotel during you're stay was a uncalled for considering you're staying well out of central surfers paradise. Its like being charged for being away from all entertainment???? Doesn't make much sense.
