Nice place, but a little far away from Caloundra.

Good value place to stay for a work trip to the Sunshine Coast. Very reasonable price for rooms thru the week, much higher on weekends. Has a restaurant/bar with room service on-site which is convenient. As it's a 5min drive back to shops & pub at Pelican Waters. Loved the outlook from room over golf course & pool area.
