- Michelle (8/5): - Newly renovated with lovely finishes that give it a lux feel.
Had no issue accessing the room despite no staff on-site, Netflix and coffee pod machine, close to shops (short walk).
Powerpoints underneath side table for charging devices. Air conditioning wasn't able to be adjusted with remote.
- Jessica (5/5): It was ok for a one night stop over but wouldn’t use as a holiday - Location The complex is quite noisy you can pretty much hear everyone in the room beside you. The lights on the walk way out the front of the top floor seemed to all be on very late at night. The shon straight through even with the blinds down as it would shine through each side of the blind. Pillows had a very temp like smell.
- Melita (7/5): Ok - great location - not very clean - Newly renovated, close to the beach Unit was very dusty, floors didn't feel clean, looked like someone had vomited on balcony and it hadn't been properly cleaned up, could hear neighbouring people in their units, I thought it was a bit expensive for what it was.
- Sharan (10/5): - Access to everything. Lovely apartment. Parking. Stairs. No staff on site. Failure to clean corners , under and behind furniture. Expensive for having second bedroom double bunks.
- Matthew (8/5): Overall I was happy and thankyou - Close to my meeting point Shower glass looked uncleaned
- Chapman (8/5): -
- Hanson (9/5): -
- Jefferson (10/5): -
- Skyla (10/5): - Great place to stay, super modern and clean. Everything you need toiletries, tea, coffee machine etc. Definitely recommend.
- andrew (9/5): Comfortable and convenient - New clean fresh feel There was a party down stairs on the Saturday in two of the rooms and with no staff on site and being there for the death of my partners father we needed sleep and were not really in any head space to be searching for a contact to have the party stopped.
This was the only thing and the parking was limited which we didn't really know until we arrived as it wasn't clear at actual booking and as mentioned with the death of my father in law, the long unplanned drive and the pouring rain on arrival we were a little disappointed as I would have booked a room with a spot to park, but the property was lovely besides this.
- Brendon (10/5): -
- Jay (9/5): I’ll be back - Very clean. Easy to find. Perfect for an over nighter
- brett (8/5): - Lack of power points is a real problem
- Sue (10/5): - The room was very bright. Needed to b darker for sleeping
- Sharon (8/5): Lovely room & very clean - Could not get the free Netflix to work which was disappointing The connection to Netflix
- Rebecca (10/5): Great stay if going to the events centre! - We stayed here because of it proximity to the events centre and the location was across the road!
It is a self check in motel so there is no staff on site, we did have an issue with being locked out of our room but the out of office number responded very quickly and fixed our issue! The self check in and no staff on site. There is only a phone number to text if there is an issue and unfortunately we had an issue and the number was also having issues and not receiving messages but was also quickly resolved and fixed asap
- Stacey (9/5): -
- Pauline (9/5): Very clean easy access to the events theatre, close walk to Bulcock Street. - Did not have breakfast. Had dinner at the the thirsty beaver. Did not like the mugs for drinking tea/coffee
- Cianna (10/5): I have been visiting my family in Caloundra. for 30 yrs, this accommodation is budget friendly and now at the top of my - I liked everything! The new owners have renovated it beautifully, very comfortable. No complaints at all.
- Paul (7/5): It was adequate. - The location was close to transport and shops and cafes. Having staff on site.
- Anne (9/5): - Bed was very comfortable and great location opposite the Event centre . Great shower. All good
- Anne (9/5): -
- Robyn (10/5): - Very well presented and clean room. Walking distance to a shopping centre. Caloundra Event Centre is across the road. There is local bus access nearby. I found many coffee shops, restaurants and local attractions etc. to keep me busy. Nothing
- Vicki (8/5): Perfect location for anyone attending the Caloundra Cultural Centre - Location was ideal for our stay as we attended a function at the cultural centre which is directly across the road.
It appeared to be very clean and the bed was quite comfortable. The bathroom is tiny and not practical. The bathmat was perpetually wet due to the shower water seeping out under the shower door. The vanity is too deep for the space and makes it awkward to move around the room, the basin taking up most of the top makes it difficult to get ready too with makeup, hairdryer etc.
The fridge was not working the best either as the freezer had iced up and was in desperate need of defrosting.
- Dallas (10/5): Perfect for what we needed - Clean, super convenient for where we were going. Comfortable beds Maybe a fan in the second room would be good as a bit hot if you closed door but other than that I couldn’t fault anything
- Carolyn (8/5): -
- Deborah (8/5): - Very comfortable and across the road from the event stage. Walking distance to beach and restaurants. Very comfortable. Street parking. All was good. No staff on sites but great communication.
- Rae (8/5): Good - The location was ideal We couldn't figure out how to get into the room - we have never seen this type of keypad before and had to ask another guest at the motel how to get into our room
- David (10/5): -
- Taig (6/5): - Better blinds on the windows and a blind on the bathroom windows. To much light in the morning
More parking

- Stephanie (8/5): -
- Maria (8/5): -
- Emmy (8/5): Good stay! - The room is clean with newer interior. The set up or layout in our room is less practical. The room is spacious but it doesn’t feel like it.
- Lara (8/5): Modern and clean interiors, well located to beach and shops. - Modern, clean and spacious interior, very convenient location to shops and Bech. Easy check-in and check-out. Lack of laundry facilities. Second bedroom didn't have A/C, was very small and light at night.
- Jonathan (10/5): great stay, comfortable and convenient! - The Location was great, very close to town and beach. aircon only in one room, the side room bed 2 needs a small split A/C unit.

- Kate (9/5): Excellent would definitely stay again - Very comfortable and the renovation is excellent There was no iron in the room.
- Trudi (10/5): Good place for an overnight stay - Great location walking distance from the beach No on-site staff
- Denise (10/5): - Great close to everything i needed and walked
- Kelly Pham (7/5): Good for a quick night stay, but for longer stay I would think twice about this motel. - Efficient, quick self service check in, location is good within walking distances to town, the property is okay and tidy. Cleanliness could be improved, we has sand on our main room bedsheet, and we did not go to the beach at all, only there to visit family for a day and stayed the night. So I was wondering if the bedsheets were ever changed...???
One thing to give feedback to the design of the family room, there are 2 rooms separated by a door, which is great for a family. But in the main bedroom with 1 large bed there are both aircon and ceiling fan, whilst the other bedroom with 2 single beds for the kids/extra guests there is none, neither aircon or any type of fan. It is a silly design, I would laugh at whoever designed or built that room type. Suggest the manager or owner to put a fan in the other bedroom for air circulation, and to help with the heat during summer. We had to leave the door between 2 rooms open so the aircon could flow into our kid's bedroom, and that defeats the purpose of having 2 separate rooms for privacy and comfort.
Balcony chairs were soaking wet, could be due to previous guests wetting them after going to the beaches. Not a big deal but we got our pants wet sitting on them not knowing the chair cushions were wet.
- Carib (10/5): -
- Matt (9/5): -
- Antony (6/5): -
- Gayle (2/5): - Walking distance No pool, no toaster or micro wave, no cutlery
- Corinne (8/5): The cutest motel room I have ever seen - The interior was so lovely and tasteful. The bed was super comfortable. The only issue we noticed was that the shower door doesn’t keep the water in so the bathroom floor / floor mat was soaked
- Sharon (6/5): Okay but over priced - Very dusty on fridge. Very overrated for a motel. ($390per night) No car park allocated to our room. Car space
- Cath (9/5): -
- Rigby (8/5): -
- Brenna (9/5): Perfectly situated and modern comfort - The location was perfect! Situated less than 7 mins walk to the beach. We visited the local markets on Sunday morning and it was lovely. The area was quiet despite being on a street corner. The room was beautifully modernised and welcoming. The self-check in was easy to follow. There’s a bit of mold in the grout of the shower, but was hard to see at first due to the choice of terrazzo-style tiles. But, it didn’t seem to be an issue for us. The pillows were a bit firm but that’s pretty standard for a hotel. Other than that it was great!
- Kath (6/5): -
- Beverley (9/5): A perfect choice for a short stay in Caloundra. Very comfortable motel with good equipment. - Great location, comfortable room, clean, well equipped
- Tanya (9/5): - Clean and comfortable. No Air Conditioning in second bedroom.
- Leigh (10/5): - Modern , clean room. Close to centre of Caloundra. Helpful staff .
- David (7/5): Great, except for the credit card surcharge. - The location I did not like that there was no reception. I hated that you were charged extra to use the credit card and did not have the option to pay cash. I believe the credit card charge should be part of the room rate and not an extra charge as was the case here. I am hoping the reserve bank outlaws charging this fee next year as i find it rude. Other than that the stay was fine. At this stage we will not stay again at Motel Caloundra due to the credit card charge with no way to avoid it.
- Blake (10/5): - Really nicely renovated - quite modern. Definitely would stay again
- Margaret (8/5): - Great location. The handrail on the stairs was downright . Lawsuit waiting to happen
- Glenda (9/5): - Proximity to the event centre plus room was perfect. Clean and well decorated . Easy check in
- Marcel (9/5): -
- Rhys (9/5): -
- Sherrill (10/5): - Great facilities. Clean and fresh. Nothing
- Wayne (9/5): -
- Miller (9/5): A beautiful stay in a nice location, the motel was very accommodating to our needs. - We loved how easy the self check-in was and how new the room was (including features and decorations). We did notice a few things that caused some issues for example a poor design choice - when opening the wardrobe the drawer could not fully be pulled out as the tv mounted on the wall was in the way or that the shower seal was almost nonexistent because water would constantly leak on the bathroom floor.
- Tim (8/5): -
- Skyla (9/5): - Clean, comfortable and convenient.
- Lisa (7/5): Beautiful room and handy location - Beautiful room and straight across the road from the events centre. . Just no parking for the room we were given. When booked it said parking available. Not all rooms have allocated parking. We had to park on the street. Hard when your with a person who needs a closer park due to disabilities
- Jason (8/5): Will stay again. - Everything was easy. We were told our room number and entry code (and instructions etc) prior to arriving which made it so easy and the accommodation was clean and comfortable.
- Greene (9/5): -
- Brett (10/5): -
- Kate (9/5): Would Happily Return - Very clean, comfortable, aesthetic apartment, great location- able to walk to multiple restaurants, shops, beach etc. Would definitely stay again.
- Elizabeth (10/5): A gorgeous motel with comfortable beds - I really loved this motel. The room was clean, fresh and very appealing with gorgeous decor. The shower and toiletries were wonderful, and the bed was very, very comfortable. The motel was very quiet, being further back from the main strip, but still conveniently located, close to shops, and across the street from the Events Centre. The remote check-in and room access worked very well. The beach is close by, as is the local swimming pool. It was relaxing to have Netflix and high quality temperature control in the room for sleeping well in any weather. I would definitely stay here again! Complimentary bottled water in the fridge would be a very welcome addition.
- Stephen (10/5): Of standard and expectations were as usual. - All great. Nil
- DavidTraveller (7/5): Clean and modern rooms - The room was modern and clean. The bed was a little uncomfortable The bed was a little uncomfortable and there were no staff onsite and there was self check in.
- Kim (10/5): Value for money comfortable and secure - 5 minute walk from shops, cafe and restaurants and less than another 5 minutes to the beach. Very secure location and room, staff were amazing!!! Could t
Get a tv station but didn't stay in the room much to much having fun
- Chris (6/5): I’ve stayed in better for $350 per night - Quite location, nicely refurbished For $350 per night I expected more than ONE coffee pod for the machine, a few cappuccino sachets provided but we both drink black coffee so only one coffee pod when we arrived home that evening.
It looks recently renovated but the cleaning could have been better. Empty chip packet in bathroom cupboard, dirt, crumbs, fluff on top of microwave and under and around lounge chairs.
No onsite staff, they tried to charge me $30 for a half hour early check in. When I refused they re assessed my situation ( travelled for a family funeral) and allowed me to check in early without a charge. I just thought it was a bit over the top to ask for $30 for 1/2 hr.
- gail (8/5): - Just a good motel Nothing
- Courtney (10/5): - Beautiful renovation, great finishings we were pleasantly surprised
