Fantastic home away from home

We had such a wonderful stay at the apartment. The apartment has been recently renovated and so well thought out. It is very well equipped with everything you may need and more. The host was very helpful providing information on the local area. This apartment is highly recommended.

We were very happy with our decision to choose Ali's Waterfront retreat as our accommodation of choice for our fleeting visit to this part of the GC. A perfect location for exploring the Tweed Head area and the surrounding hinterland. The accommodation could not be faulted, a great make-over with new everything. Comfortable furnishings that included everything we needed for our stay. We also appreciated Laura's prompt responses to communications. We would definitely stay here again !

We had a great stay here. There was a small hiccup with the bedding setup but this was fixed within 30 mins of getting in touch with them. There's plenty of gear available to enjoy the water (unfortunately the weather didn't play nice with us while we were here so couldn't take advantage). My only wish would be for the place to be closer to the theme parks as the roadwords on the highway create traffic throughout the day but that's out of their control.
