Located very conveniently right beside Golden Beach and a small shopping village. Super friendly and helpful staff, beautiful little heated pool area with comfortable seating, complimentary welcome drinks, free access to tennis court, and lovely designed self contained rooms.

Hotel is starting to show its age. Aircon was not working first night so coming into a hot humid room was not very nice. Dirty dishes that had not been washed very well. Scuff marks on every wall. They where doing works on the hotel so games room and gym was closed that information beforehand would have been useful. Pool was clean and very nice and the room was nice but just tired. We did arrive late and then pulled aside to get a sales pitch on there holiday club. Was very pushy and rude when I was not interested.

We loved the sea views from our 8th floor balcony. It needed two comfortable chairs to sit and enjoy the bliss, not hard uncomfortable bar stools and table provided. The room had everything we needed. Laundry on each level is handy along with laundry powder provided in our room. The room was compact but had what we needed. The bed was comfortable. One of the two lifts was undergoing maintenance during our entire five night midweek stay, it was an inconvenience during morning peak when the lift was repeatedly full, we gave up and took the stairs 8 floors down. Room air con maintenance and electrical tag & test also happened during our stay. Maintenance must be done, it was unfortunate they were all happening during our stay. Reception staff were friendly and helpful. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Perfect location, perfect views, great pool area, comfy bed. I find it hard to explain cause when you stay I stayed at the Ramada the rooms are average. But in saying that we enjoyed our stay and would stay again. The downers were not enough parking had to park on the street. And the lift service is terrible

There’s no room service or house keeping. Reception leaves at 8pm but there’s one ground keeper that stays to facilitate if you get locked out. The recreation room is dated and you have to clean your room before leaving (throw trash and stack dishwasher). Otherwise the view is outstanding from level 7 and the pool is great!

The apartment had amazing view. It was overall very clean apart from shower drain. The steam and games rooms as well as the gym are currently under renovations (the advertisement only mention the gym out of order). Great bike and stand up boards available for hire. The spa bath partially works (only bubbles on the ground, none around the sitting area worked.) Great location, very quiet area.

We stayed in a 2-bedroom apartment on the top floor, great sea view, except the room was in TERRIBLE condition. It had a wrap around balcony which was very nice, the living room was tiny with only 1 sofa to sit on which didn't even fit our family, so someone had to sit on kitchen stool. The room was very cold in feeling, as all white tile, no decor, and the tan carpets in the bedrooms were very dirty and stains on them. The walls were dirty and had scuff marks all over them, the bottom of the fridge was rusty, the bottom of the doors were worn away, and the floors had must not been vacuumed as there were pills on the floor when we arrived. Through the night it was raining, and the wind was blowing, but the sliding patio doors were rattling so much we had to put towels against them to stop the noise. Good thing because the rain also leaked a lot inside the doors, and the carpet was soaked when we woke up. The bathrooms were gross and caulk everywhere looked like a blind person did it, and just looked gross. The pool was nice, hot tub was nice, but both much smaller than pictures provided, so keep that in mind. Gym and rec areas needed serious upgrades. Parking was easy and the staff was super nice.

Great position overlooking still water and out to ocean. Reception area modern, unlike the tired and dated room. All worked and was adequate but I don’t feel it was worthy of the ‘Ramada’ brand name.

Everything was amazing and beautiful.. the reception girl was friendly and nice but after checking us in then asked us to go talk with two other women for instructions on where to park the car ( car parking was abit horrendous for the size of property), the two women then proceeded talking about club Wyndham and if we joined etc, we were tired from driving all day and he last thing we want to do is listen to a sales pitch. Other than that everything else was great

I liked proximity to oceanfeont. I found parking advice terrible. Sending us underground parking which was full. I expected oceanfront but had an angled waterview from rear of property. The Thai restaurant was great. Felt people were more pressured to sell than just give the key to room to settle in after a 7 hour drive. Totally annoying.

As units are individually owned some apartments are better than others .and better equipped also re kitchen amenities. Have returned to Ramada numerous times over the past 5 or 6 years. Love the 9th floor overlooking Bribie passage. The Thai restaurant, The Copper Spoon has tasty meals moderately priced… but ask for the lunchtime menu at lunch.. much more economical. Lovely walk to Caloundra CBD and many local walkers are very friendly. Will certainly return within 6 months. We LOVE it!! Also self service laundry facilities on numerous floors.
