Beachside Getaway, Southern Cross Seventh Floor

Great location and very comfortable accommodation. Would definitely stay again. The apartment decor is a little dated (like a lovely nostalgic walk back into the 1980s) but very well looked after. The location was perfect for beach, shops, food and walks. The apartment complex has been recently renovated and it looks great. The only downside was picking up the and dropping off the key. It would have been more convenient if the property was leased through Southern Cross Apartments. Instead we had to walk to Burleigh shops which was a bit tricky with luggage.

Very good - furniture a bit dark which impacted on impression.A maintenance issue with a stuck bathroom basin plug was annoying but fixed within 36 hours.

We loved the location, place was clean and we appreciated the French press. However there was no spices and only a few packets of sugar. Zero shampoo in either bathroom which we really could have used also a few extra towels.Most importantly we had a terrible time making our payment to host using our Captal One credit card. Eventually we had to make a wire transfer but that included additional fees that we had to pay. This was very stressful and took quite a lot of time to resolve between phone calls to VRBO and actually calling the host in Australia from the US. We were very unhappy with both VRBO and host with the lack of communication.

This apartment was in the perfect location for us. Walking distance to everything - beach, shops, restaurants, Bureigh Hill walking trail and cafes. Sea views were amazing. The online description and photos were accurate. We had a lovely stay and would book again.

Apart from construction works it was lovely
