Guest Reviews
- Lucas (7/5): -
- Michaela (9/5): We loved our stay here! - Fresh, clean, well equipped apartment Nothing
- Karl (9/5): -
- Christina (9/5): Great location. Clean and such a comfortable room. Would stay again for sure :) - The rooms were laid out so well. Sharing is no problem - location - view You can’t get between floors easily. They ask for cc and photo id in email - not sure how secure that is. After hours drop of seems easy.
- Nicki (10/5): -
- Philip (9/5): Perfect property - Beautiful property very consistory with all facilities you would need . Handy to Maccas and little connivence store . Nothing
- Louise (5/5): Beware of misrepresentation of views/Gold Coast Hwy 24hr construction - Location next to the beach Deceptive! Buyer beware!!! 24hr construction on the Gold Coast Hwy made it a restless family vacation. My husband and I were tired when we arrived and exhausted by the time we left. Heavy drilling typically kicked off at 9-10pm. It was also dangerous crossing the road with children throughout the day. The Property/Booking.com did not advise in advance. We booked months ahead so plenty of opportunity for both companies to update us. The 'important property information' on Booking.com did not advise of this disturbance. It wasn't until we were there and opened guest reviews that we could see this has been an ongoing issue which is obviously not being properly handled. Also, if you book a "2bdrm apartment" check that it is not overlooking the Mcdonalds drive through. The smell was disgusting and prevented us from using the balcony. When we approached the desk Donna mentioned it was a booking.com standard to be located up to the 9th floor - photos on booking.com show higher level flats (no signs of Mcdonalds/Gold Coast Hwy view). Booking.com basically ignored our frustrations. Completely unfair give we had booked for 5nights. Very affected experience that could have been rectified with a better customer service experience.
- Alexandra (10/5): The perfect Gold Coast weekend - Amazing views, great location
- Athina (7/5): Clean and comfortable with the prefect location. - The Location was fantastic, we were on floor 21 so we had great views. The two bedroom apartment was very clean, comfortable with everything we needed. The biggest let down was that the beautiful pool was not heated so we couldn’t swim in it at all as the water was icy which was a big disappointment. Few maintenance issues in the room. The showers in both bathrooms had poor water pressure, one bathrooms exhaust wasn’t working. The dishwasher leaked.
- Dylan (9/5): Really enjoyed our stay at Sandbar - Property was great, modern, clean and spacious No issues whatsoever
- Carla (9/5): Great apartment in excellent location. Will definitely stay again - Location was great. Beds were really comfy. Handy inclusions like beach towels. Easy check-in/out. No traffic noise Nothing
- Sunreet (9/5): -
- Sandy (9/5): -
- Robert (8/5): As advertised, good value. - Very very clean, quiet with good quality linen. Great amenities. Friendly staff. The pool is small and uninviting.
- Tracey (9/5): Absolutely loved it and would definitely stay again - Beautiful location, close to the beach, wonderful views & a lovely apartment It seemed like quite the hassle to check in after 5pm
- Lori (9/5): -
- Karen (9/5): -
- Vilija (10/5): -
- Louise (5/5): -
- Hayley (10/5): A fabulous place to rest and enjoy the long weekend - we will be back! - Clean, convenient and when the tram is finished it will be even better! The apartment was perfect for our stay and the gym and pool were great additions, along with walking straight out to the beach! The amount of building happening around it - but that’s happening everywhere in Burleigh so no fault of the apartment!
- Mathew (10/5): -
- Lindy (7/5): - Lovely apartment, location was good. Construction going on outside on road 24/7 and in front with new apartment building. It should have been advertised as it really disturbed our sleep and stay. Pillows were rock hard, uncomfortable, so our necks were sore, need to provide spare pillows with different thicknesses. Staff on reception very unfriendly, never bothered looking up as we entered or left. Apartment itself very nice and comfortable, very clean.
- Nicola (10/5): -
- Kirsten (10/5): 10/10 - highly recommended - Immaculate presentation, very cosy feel and comfortable bed. I felt like I was at home. My hosts were very responsive - 10/10 and would stay again There was nothing I didnt like.
- Joe (9/5): Great location. Clean and comfortable - Relatively new. Very comfortable and clean. Car parking is extremely tight.
- Donna (9/5): -
- Jessica (5/5): Appalling customer service and communication by staff - Clean and beautifully presented building. Amazing location and views They failed to disclose the light rail works occurring during our booking process- we are from interstate and didn’t know. They failed to be transparent about the construction impacts, profiling, asphalting, saw cutting at night and that the entrence to the property was blocked from 8:30pm nightly. Simple communication about impacts is all it would have taken to make our stay more comfortable. Our room faced the works also and they weren’t at capacity and could have moved us to the beach side of the building to reduce noise at night. Staff were rude and inconsiderate and thus significantly impacted our experience. Appalling customer service
- R (8/5): The nightly rail works had a huge negative impact on our stay, the hotel was very good otherwise. - We were put in a room on level 9 right on the highway. Unbeknown to us there were nightly works on the new Gold Coast train being built and the noise was awful, going from 8.30PM to 4.30AM, at one point it felt like the jack hammer was in the room with us. Guests should be warned prior to booking.
- Chris (10/5): Excellent place , views and location. - Everything about it was amazing Pillows were a bit too firm!
- Kylie (9/5): -
- Lorraine (9/5): Wonderful accommodation of great value for money in excellent location of the Gold Coast. - Loved the location. Loved the gym and the pool/bbq area. The supermarkets, cafes and beach were only a few minutes walk away. Loved the spaciousness of our apartment and how well appointed it was. The beds were very comfortable. Great value for money. Only the roadworks noise which is out of the Sandbar’s control.
- Todd (10/5): -
- Adam (8/5): Loved the spot. Would definitely return and would appreciate improvements. - The location has easy access to the beach. The facilities were new and views were relaxing. The onsite parking made it very convenient with kids. It is right near a kids playground and there are good cafes on the far side of Gold Coast hwy. The light rail construction was taking place for our visit and the crews were making noise with jackhammers and heavy machinery all evening. The pool in the building is not heated only an issue for me because my kids loved it and they can’t swim solo it would be pleasant in summer. Light coloured carpets and rugs inside the room made oil/grime spot stains very obvious. On arrival the AC was set to maximum cooling and 16 degrees which took a couple of hours to warm to a comfortable temperature.

- Hyosung (10/5): -
- Raymond (10/5): - The owners were very obliging, went on and above to make sure our stay went well. The road works near by.
- Erin (3/5): Don’t stay here if you want to sleep. - The room was clean. We hardly had any sleep because the apartment overlooked the road where there is construction of the light rail going on throughout the entire day and entire night so we hardly had any sleep.
- Jason (10/5): - Location and facilities Nothing
- Andy (8/5): Great - It’s clean and new. Handy for busses Just a bit further from Burleigh town than we thought
- Renee (9/5): We’ll be back! - Central Gold Coast location, very close to some great brunch locations and, of course, the beach! Ezymart downstairs and a 7Eleven close by. Pool and gym were also great. I was very impressed by the level of cleaning and organisation - hats off to the housekeeping team! Current evening roadworks related to extending the light rail down to Burleigh. Slight noice but the apartments are double glazed.
- Lancealot (10/5): 10/10 - Create location easy to get into the centre 10 minute Uber beach right around the corner 7-Eleven downstairs great accommodation
- Chris (10/5): - Clean Nothing
- Hannah (7/5): - Bright, safe and clean Reception staff weren’t the friendliest, and the shower pressure was awful, unless on freezing cold temperature.
- Scott (1/5): Worst ever - Nothing The roadworks didn’t sleep for both nights. It’s disgusting they didn’t state this as they knew it was planned. Rubbish bins were Al’s not emptied
- Cody (10/5): Great spot, great hotel! - Everything Nothing
- Kim (8/5): Modern apartment in beautiful Burleigh/Miami area - Lovely 2 year old property. Unit was nicely decorated and not huge but spacious for a 2 bed unit. Great views up to Gold Coast. Lovely pool and communal areas. Staff helpful arranging late check in. Burleigh has great restaurants, bars and surf clubs, lots of walks and good public transport up and down the coast. Many of the apartments in the area are dated. It’s nice to have something modern at a reasonable price. A bit of noise from the night works on Gold Coast Highway which hopefully will finish soon. Once doors were closed it was quiet enough. It’s about a 10 min walk from Burleigh town centre. 3 min to North Burleigh surf club. Miami shops are about 3 min away also. Great walking track by the beach linking it all. It’s ok if you are fit but older people may find it a bit much or if weather is hot or wet and they are thinking they are close to Burleigh Heads.
- Melissa (10/5): Wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else, the apartment was superb! - We stayed in a 3 bedroom apartment, the apartment was outstanding. The location central to everything. If I’m being picky would have loved a sauna
- Anna (9/5): Perfect Getaway - Great location - beautiful, modern, spacious apartment with ocean views.
- Doherty (10/5): - Best hotel/apparment pillows!
- Jenna (10/5): Great place for a weekend away - Great location, everything is walkable. N/A
- Heather (9/5): Loved th room and location as well as views! - Amazing views and location! They should let people know that construction goes all day and night right outside.
- Melissa (8/5): - New building, very clean. There was only one type of pillow and they were very big and uncomfortable all 4 of us ended up using the lounge pillows and putting a pillowcase on them as there was no way of getting other pillows. The roadworks kept us up the first night we were there, they didnt stop at all. We were not told of this when we booked.
- Daniel (10/5): -
- Tiffany (10/5): Amazing place to stay! - The place was amazing! Beautiful views, clean and perfect for our stay! Construction around but didn’t stop us from having a wonderful time!
- Victoria (10/5): Perfect place in a perfect location. Highly recommend. - Location was excellent, room was spacious, clean, great beds. Right by the beach. Would loved to have stayed longer. All good 😊
- Rachel (9/5): Beautiful views and stunning apartment - Stunning view, great location, easy walk to beach Extra cost for beach towel hire.
- Tamsin (10/5): Gorgeous hotel in great location! - Lovely apartment, makes a huge difference having a full kitchen/laundry etc on holiday especially with a baby. Pool was good however most of the time it felt like the sun didn’t really hit it (maybe just when we tried) but overall lovely clean place. 3 cafes very very close & all delicious.
- Timothy (10/5): -
- Sharleen (10/5): -
- Moira (8/5): Comfortable apartment in good location, close to the beach and great cafes and restaurants. Not far from Gold Coast airp - Location close to transport into Broadbeach. Nice walk into Burleigh Heads The staff on reception need to put a smile on their faces. Didn’t find them welcoming at all.
- Genesis (9/5): ONE OF THE BEST STAYS EVER - Everything! Nothing!
- M (10/5): Great location, comfortable, would def stay again - Location, size, beds were comfortable For a large apartment it was lacking in cooking equipment, not enough pans, pots
- Stacey (9/5): Can’t beat the views! Gorgeous apartment - The 3 bedroom apartment was brilliant ! The view was amazing Loved the large balcony, beds were super comfy There wasn’t enough toiletries for the entire stay. Cooking equipment wasn’t great. Third bathroom is only a powder room not a full bathroom. Photos had a tv in the 2nd lounge room but there wasn’t one
- Sarah (10/5): -
- Jayne (10/5): Great location & staff were excellent - Location
- Klara (10/5): Et fantastisk opphold, absolutt verdt turen. En helt unik leilighet med fantastiske omgivelser. Virkelig verdt besøket. - Nærhet til stranden, utsikten, fasilitetene. Ingenting.

- Alana (10/5): Great stay in Burleigh - Location was excellent — just a 2-minute walk to the beach and about a 2km stroll into Burleigh. There’s a supermarket close by, plus an awesome CrossFit gym around the corner with some great coffee spots along the way. The beds were super comfortable, and the air con was an absolute treat after a hot day in the sun. The staff were incredibly accommodating and kindly stored our bags until our room was ready. Overall, a great stay — would definitely come back!
- Martin (7/5): Basic, functional and clean. - Basic property that satisfied the need for accommodation. Everything you need for a week’s self catered holiday-making. Asked many, many times for an upgrade to a sea-front view and to place us as high up the apartment block as possible. Totally ignored and no compromising discussion. Also, feel a little hood-winked by the photograph of the apartment on the Booking’s page; it was far from the reality of the actual allocated apartment. Additionally, due to the 24hr roadworks on the main (Gold Coast Highway).. we had 24hrs of noise.
- Annabel (10/5): -
- Marten (8/5): Modern, clean apartments not far from the heart of Burleigh Heads. - Good location, maybe a nice 1.5km walk into central Burleigh. Really solid sized rooms, clean and modern with everything you need. Right across the road from the beach, and the entire beach in Burleigh Heads is unreal. If you want to be in the heart of Burleigh Heads, you'd need to be happy walking or riding a bike into town.

- Tanya (8/5): Relaxing, high comfort. Apartment is absolutely beautiful. Great location, - Great location, beautiul views, beautiful apartment, fabulous bed the most minimum of supplies - ie salt and peper in about 4 satchets, no coffee capsules (though coffee machine supplied and without coffee was useless). If I had known no kitchen supplies, I would have brought them, (this is a privatley owned apartment so assumed there would be something!). Also hardly any dishes supplied, so had to wash up alot.
