Guest Reviews
- Sherryl (9/5): Good stay, helpful staff. Units relatively new and clean. Needs some minor issues fixed but would be very happy to stay - Close to everything, secure parking. Some minor maintenance issues. Fan in one bedroom not working, light working intermittently in the other. Chair in kitchen wobbly.
- Baerbel (9/5): Had a lovely stay. Pity we spent most of it away from the accommodation dragon boating. - Loved having a good size fridge and a proper kitchen. Plenty of room and great view from back verandah. Enjoyed our stay. Tv didn’t seem to have regular tv channels. Extra parking spot for second car would be nice.
- Kylie (8/5): -
- Madison (9/5): -
- Mark (10/5): - Very nice property and very close to the Station where we watched a concert.
- MICHAEL (7/5): - Got stuck in lift
- Dougal (7/5): Good apartment, enjoyed the stay -
- Sarah (4/5): Could have been fantastic but was disappointed in communication, cleanliness and mistakes that were made and offered no - I didn’t stay at salt. The room I booked and paid for was unavailable Waterline on Oceanside is where I stayed and I liked the location
- Lenon (9/5): -
- Rodney (9/5): -
- Stacey (8/5): -
- Kim (10/5): great location, so happy to have found this place. great for families - Everything was awesome nothing not to like
- Steven (7/5): Ok - Could have been cleaner, we had to buy spray and wipe and clean up the place, cooker was dirty had to clean it before we could cook anything in the oven
- Donnella (8/5): Beautiful view, quiet and cosy - Comfy beds, washing machine and dryer provided
Awesome view, nice and quiet close to hospital Mould on wall above the bathroom door on suite in 2nd bedroom
- Bryan (5/5): An extremely overpriced very basic facility…can’t recommend at all - Property was very basic No staff, no facilities other than very basics, required a$150 card deposit on top of an exorbitant $410 per night
Akin to a pub room with very basic facilities
- Christine (5/5): Nice view but probably wouldn't return. - Great outlook onto the lake. Walking distance to Sunshine Coast University Hospital. Very built-up but quiet area. Good size tv with i.net. No attention to detail with housekeeping. Cleaner should go to Specsavers. Shower head in main bathroom needs to be fixed - hubby managed a "quick, temp. fix" - one bedside light didn't have a globe. Small things but for $230/night I expect things to work and be clean.
- Tahlia (8/5): Great spot for a weekend with friends! - Location, undercover car parking, layout of the apartment. No lamps in the bedrooms.
- Loren Woodhouse (9/5): - The view and apartment At night it was hard to see where it was, even the taxi driver had to ask, needs to be lit up more.
- Brenda (10/5): - The location next to the lake and the serenity. One of the staff members came to our rescue when we couldn't figure out the way to operate the elevator. Maybe entertainment could improve. Apps like YouTube would freeze from time to time and Netflix was restricted to ad-free.
- DEEANNE (6/5): The apartment location was good but the apartment was not clean. - The location was close to the Sunshine Coast Hospital. And met our needs for the week. It was not to my standards of cleanness. It really needs a spring clean. As there was a lot of dust and spider webs, some of the kitchen appliances felt greasy.
One of the dunes in the single bed had brown stains.
Shower had calcium deposits.
Cough was dirty
Damage and scuff marks on walls.
- Helen (1/5): Don't stay in Apt 44 - The view, location & free parking Wasn't clean, rusty, and broken items, no frypan, so I had to buy one. Oven was dirty and didn't work. Check in details and staff were very stressful and delayed.
- Annette (9/5): Relaxing holiday unit - Location on 7th floor was perfect. The view was beautiful. It was quiet and relaxing. Very convenient to get to good shopping. Unit was spacious, great sized covered balcony. Two nice bathrooms with lovely big soft towels. Nice kitchen. The kitchen could do with restocking. A couple of hundred dollars at kmart would get it up to scratch. There were 3 mugs for a unit that sleeps 4. One saucepan, very few kitchen utensils. No ovenproof dishes. But there was a spring form baking pan, for those folk that want to bake while on holidays! There was a multi cooker (slow cooker, pressure cooker, air fryer) no instructions and something I'd not be wanting to use without being familiar with it's operation. It's a lovely unit. Just needs a deep clean. Especially around the front of the shower doors, and the aluminum tracks of the windows and sliding doors. The lounge suite is very low and uncomfortable for older ppl. The two bar stools were very tired, the bases of them quite rusty. The washing machine needs a good clean. As did the clothes drier need a very clogged lint filter cleaned, along with the removal of the underwear left in it by previous occupiers.
- Aisha (10/5): -
- Susan (8/5): Quick feedback from Salt apartments, perfect location to Hospital, quiet location. Clean facilities. Happy to stay again - Central location to popular attractions, Sunshine Coast Hospital and shopping centres. Excellent walking track and lovely views. Quiet complex. Nothing to fault
- Tracy (10/5): Exceptional - Great views and peaceful location.
- Jkb (9/5): Superb -
- Mary-clare (5/5): Convenient and basic. Few things to improve - Parking not suitable for 4WD and when we parked in visitor car park we got unfriendly messages on our car to say it would be towed. No alternative provided.
Beds were quite uncomfortable - rolling into the middle.
Rooms very clean, washing machine and tumble dryer and dishwasher were handy.
Apartments are basic
- Greg (8/5): Very good -
- Megan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hajighasemi (2/5): The place was dirty, smelled awful, and looked nothing like the pictures, an absolute disappointment. - The location was good and the view was beautiful. It was NOT clean AT ALL!! The entire place had a strong, unpleasant smell that was irritating. The couch, carpet, and surfaces were covered in stains and grime. It was so bad that I couldn’t even sit on the couch! The pictures showed a brand new apartment with nice furniture, but the reality was completely different. I had a TERRIBLE experience there!
- Matt (8/5): Very good -
- Andrew (8/5): Restful - Convenient Nothing
- Olivia (9/5): Superb -
- Spring (9/5): Really enjoyed it and was very good value for money - The view was amazing. Super clean place. Beds were comfy and bonus washing + dryer. Quiet neighbourhood that felt safe to walk around. There was a park and shopping centre not too far either :) check in was also super easy. Car spot was super hard to get into. Had to pull into another spot just to reverse into our spot and sometimes would have to reverse from half way across the carpark when the spots near our car spot was full.. if you went nose in and the other car spot behind was full, idk how youd get out with the wall right there lol
Balcony door wouldn't lock. Luckily we were on the fifth floor so chances of someone climbing up and getting in was slim but I had my kids with me so a bit concerning.
- Trent (10/5): It’s was alright - The view That the structure I had cracks in it
The washing machine smelt moldy
- Tracey (9/5): Superb -
- James (9/5): Excellent apartment - Quiet, clean, easy check in and clear instructions. There was a small issue with the access fob not working but it was fixed quickly by the on site property manager. They'd had a new system installed and it was a minor teething problem so not an issue with the apartment. Great view from the balcony and great location. Full kitchen and laundry facilities. It was really nice sitting out on the balcony in the evening. Just a really nice place to stay. We only stayed one night but would definitely stay longer as it's so comfortable. Air con only seemed to go down to 21c on cool, we got a bit warm overnight. If the master control could be reduced that'd be great. Minor problem as it's hard to take issue with the great apartment.
- Brian (9/5): Superb -
- Margaret (9/5): Superb -
- Gavin (6/5): Pleasant - Was close to freinds Door on balcony could not be locked. No signage on building or roadside to say where you were. Could hear occupants upstairs.
- Glynis (8/5): Lovely location - Location was good
Easy access Beds bouncy
Bathroom needs a good clean
Not enough cutlery for 4 people
- Amanda (8/5): Very good -
- Draupati (10/5): location - location and cleanliness N?A
- Jayden (9/5): Superb -
- Margarita (3/5): Poor -
- Kerry (5/5): Passable - The apartment was filthy. Disgusting smell of bacon that had been cooked and left smell. It was foul. Showers were filthy. Urine in the silicon. Showers were not cleaned prior to our check in. Lounge and behind the beds were called full of dust that had been there for months. I had to move the lounge out and vac underneath it due to my 2 yr old having dust allergies. The microwave had never ever been cleaned. It was also filthy dirty.
Stay at the Aquarius next door people.
We stayed here for a week as my husband had invasive surgery and spent 5 days in hospital. Given the location I'd expect much better as I'm sure a lot of people stay here because of hospital admissions. Not what you want when you need to be careful of infections. As you can see from the photos, bacon fat splattered up the tiles, the room skunk of days old bacon fat. Don't waste your money.
- Paula (8/5): Very good -
- Kingsley (9/5): Overall, very enjoyable accom. Only small details above which did not impact our enjoyment. - Great location. Very comfortable Bathroom door was water damaged, could not slide. Shower head kept falling off. Window too hard to open. Shower floors did not drain water away, hence water damaged door. Design fault.

- Rachel (6/5): Pleasant - Location, easy checkin-out, good view Bed, pillows, coffee
- Paula (8/5): Very good -
- Kathy (8/5): Very good -
- Lynn (4/5): Disappointing - Pleasant view
Shower hot Couch too low to ground. As a 70 year old i could sit on it but couldn't get up. Used the oudoor chairs for sitting on.
If your going to keep plastic flowers in apartment they do require dusting / wash. The oven microwave toaster and drawers all needed a wipe out of crumbs. Fridge was clean. Rubbish bin in kichen needed a wash out
One could do with a new rubbish bin in bathroom as that is rusty.
Window sills in bedroom need a wipe down of dust and grime.
Disappointing
- Beth (1/5): Bad - We paid secure Carpark but when we got there, their was someone in our space in the undercover lockable carpark. There was no other spaces to take and had to park out on the street away from the building.
- Paula (8/5): Very good -
- Sophie (9/5): Wonderful, comfy, clean stay! - Great set up. Lovely view. Could have done with a couple of extra utensils, e.g. cheese grater.
- Margaret (4/5): Location perfect, scenery ideal but spoilt by room cleanliness. - N/A Mildew smell, mould in both bathrooms.
Reported but no one turned up to cleanl.
- Alastair (8/5): Great Stay - Nice big modern apartment on the 3rd floor overlooking canals. Everything modern, big full size fridge, proper cooking facilities and kitchen if needed, washing machine and dryer -thanks, balcony, secure parking underground & fast Wifi. Good value for money. Clear instructings via txt messaging.
- Graham (10/5): Enjoyed our stay and would come again. - Location, close to hospital. Nothing
- Deb (10/5): Wish we could have stayed longer - great location and loved that view! - Loved the view and so close to the hospital. Just hard to get in contact via phone.

- Tracey (8/5): Lovely comfortable apartment - convenient location. - Great location. Very quiet. Lovely walks along the lake No guest parking available while checking in - had to pay to park on the street. Locked box code to get key did not work.
- Jadie (10/5): Definitely recommend - Absolutely clean and beautiful great position the staff were amazing Great position easy access large room comfortable beds
- Julie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Myunghoon (10/5): Exceptional - Lake view
- Elissa (4/5): Fell short on cleanliness. - Very good location. Nice views and walks. Free car parking. Cleanliness of room was well below average. Not well ventilated bathrooms and in apartment - A lot of condensation formed on windows overnight. Stains on sofa and cushions were worn and didn’t look clean. Smoke alarm went off at 4am for no reason. For price expect a lot more.
- Larcombe (4/5): Disappointing -
- Tamara (7/5): Good - It served the purpose of what we were in Kawana to do which was an event a the the 114 Venue. It was a perfect place and distance for our needs. The walls were quite thin. We had the neighbouring unit playing music or gaming and heard the low thuding or bass from music when we were trying to sleep. It wasn't bad but it would have been better if we didn't have to hear it.
- Minkyung (8/5): Very good -
- Dionne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Christina (8/5): Fab place, just minor niggles - Fabulous apartment, spotless , great layout We couldn’t get on the Wi-Fi and there was no hair dryer, both of which we’d have liked to access straightaway on our arrival
- Erin (9/5): Comfortable, spacious apartment in great location and close to tourist attractions - very pleased :) - We loved how clean and comfortable the apartment was :) Private undercover parking space and a lift upstairs were also great to have. Very spacious apartment with a lovely view of the lake behind the property, and the location was excellent - all the major tourist attractions were just a short drive away. The parking space we had was a bit tight, especially trying to get our kids in and out of the car - we had to reverse out of the space first before putting the kids in. Also, we weren't sure where to put our rubbish when the apartment bins got full - a large skip or communal rubbish point would have been helpful. My husband was disappointed that there was no coffee machine, despite the apartment description saying there was a "tea/coffee maker". Finally, there was a sign on the doors of the second bedroom and bathroom that said we hadn't booked those rooms and not to use them or we would be charged extra cleaning fees - we thought this was odd as we had indeed booked a two-bedroom apartment. We used the rooms anyway and there was no further charge afterwards, so assume the signs had been placed there in error - no issue in the end :)
- Guang (8/5): Very good -
- Cherie (8/5): Very good -
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lisa (7/5): Convenient, comfortable, safe and clean for a short stay. - Very convenient location, communications was short but prompt. The apartment had all you needed for a short work trip. Insane number of flies in the place when I arrived.
