The room was very clean and had everything needed for a long weekend away. The view was stunning and it was so peaceful to sit and watch the waves break as they rolled in. Great location that was walkable to shops as well as the beach. The staff were very friendly and professional. We highly recommend the Coolum Beach Retreat and give it a five star rating as we found no faults with the staff, room, amenities or the facility. We will be back again for sure!
