Guest Reviews

• Lesley (10/5): - It was a beautiful unit. Exactly like the photos. Nice and clean.
• Earl (7/5): -
• Milosz:) (8/5): Great location. Will definitely consider for the next holidays. - Great location, only 200m from the beach. Plenty of parking space on the street if you have visitors. Aircon and fans. Large living room area. Nice outside area. The place needs new curtains, some bathroom improvements and definitely better, faster Wi-Fi. Sofas need some refreshing/ cleaning. Coffee pot machine would be nice. We have received no instructions on how to get in. Luckily the lady at the Glen Eden Beach Resort (who looks after the place) was more than helpful and explained where to go. Don't get us wrong, the place was really good and we would definitely consider staying there again - the place just needs some...refreshing. Once again, great location, only meters to the beach.
• Willem (8/5): -
• Abhinandan (8/5): - The place...itself. Clean. Organised. There was no smoking area. Had to go outside
• Jun Rou (10/5): Very pleasant and nice. Definitely will return again. - location is perfect, very close to beach Exhaust fan required in the bathroom
• Alice (10/5): -
• Leanne (8/5): Lovely apartment in small complex opposite beach and only a short walk into town - The property was well appointed and comfortable. Close to beach Nothing to dislike
• Mark (9/5): An exceptionally well appointed apartment only a very short distance from a beautiful beach. - The apartment was exceptionally clean, roomy and very well appointed. The whole complex is beautifully maintained with lovely gardens that give privacy to each apartment. It is only 250 paces from a beautiful surf beach and about 1.8km from the shops. Our only disappointment is that the pool is not heated.
• IreneK77 (9/5): - Very nice location with the beach a short walk. Apartment is lovely and spacious with everything you need for a stay. The only thing I would criticise would be the cleanliness of the crockery/utensils. I had to wash anything I used prior to using it.
• Williams (8/5): -
• Delzad (9/5): Superb -
• Clydesdale (9/5): We really enjoyed our stay ag secret gem. It was the perfect size of us. Very accessible, near the beach and just 15mins - Everything is accessible, quiet, peaceful, big and clean apartment. It has everything that we needed for a family trip. None
• Meliza (9/5): Ideal for short break - Location! Two single bed mattresses were not the best
• Rozleen (7/5): Good - Facilities were good. Comfortable setting Ample space and clean NA
• John (6/5): Pleasant - Ok Booking . Com make it impossible to contact the property to change my stay ahead of time I was charged for three days instead for two. Not happy!
• Giselle (10/5): It was a delightful apartment. Great location and superb staff - Modern clean everything and had you could need Nothing
• Chris (10/5): A Secret Gem in a great location. - A wonderful place to relax and unwind. So close for a walk on the beach, soak in the pool. The apartment wants for nothing. The kitchen was so well appointed. It suited our stay with our family beautifully. The lock into the main bathroom was functional, unlockable, especially with 2 teenage grand daughters! Privacy is their problem.
• Rosanna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Heather (8/5): Very good -
• Rebecca (9/5): Amazing property fully equipped for a home away from home. - So spacious and so well equipped. Really great position. Good walk to town. Overall an exceptional property. It was grubby. My only complaint would be that is was not as clean as I’d hoped.
• Oliver (9/5): We had a lovely relaxing stay. - The location was lovely and quiet and across the road from the beautiful sandy beach. The heated swimming pool was a bonus and the gardens surrounding the property were lovely and tropical. Nothing
• Sabrina (8/5): Great Location! - Loved the proximity of the apartment to the pool. A few things needed a bit more of a clean like the sofa.
• Don (10/5): Nice - Nice, clean, good view, quite nothing
• Lilian (8/5): Perfect little spot, highly recommend for an easy, beautiful, restorative break. - Wonderful location backing onto the most gorgeous unpopulated beach, comfortable and spacious apartments with great amenities including heated pool, spa and sauna. Minor thing but the I was staying in the kids’ bedroom and could hear a bit of noise from the road and neighbouring property so had to bro windows closed at night. My friend stayed in the master room with them sound of waves!
• John (10/5): Perfect. - Location was excellent with a car. Plenty of good options for eating out in the village square. Another night at Secret Gem!
• Julie (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sandy (10/5): Fantastic apartment, everything we wanted - Check in was super easy and the apartment was easy to find. Host was excellent, very responsive. The apartment had everything we needed, and more. It was quiet, comfortable and I would definitely stay again. Thanks for a wonderful stay! No complaints about anything! It was fabulous.
• Marco (6/5): Pleasant - Location and type Not very clean
• Debra (10/5): Lovely apartment, excellent location - Lovely spacious apartment, right by the pool which was always empty . Right by the beach . All facilities we needed Nothing
• Sonia (9/5): Perfect for our short, family get away. - We loved the internal space, so clean and inviting. The pool area was great. Hosts were wonderful to deal with. Easy to walk to the beach and to the town. There was nothing we didn't like as such but we would have appreciated an air con in the main bedroom (in summer I feel this room would get very warm as it was warm for us in April).
• Michelle (10/5): Modern recipes with lots of space - Modern and clean Wifi not great
• Alan (9/5): Superb -
• Cheré (9/5): Superb -
• Phee (7/5): Great apartment, but a bad check-out experience - Spacious private apartment. Quiet large pool. Close to beach. Peregian Village has a lovely relaxed feel. No pool or beach towels and no spare bathroom towels. The single mattresses were saggy. The TV was on it's way out with a line through the bottom half. Wifi intermittent. We had a very bitter end to our stay. The resort manager said he was "shocked by the state of our apartment" and wanted to charge a $200 cleaning fee. It was very upsetting to be spoken to in this way. We had the misfortune of our son getting a very bad blood nose the morning of our departure and he bloodied the bed in his sleep. The manager was put out to have to wash the pillows and bed linens. We were also apparently meant to do a full clean of the apartment before we left, which was never made clear. If guests are expected to do a full clean the check-out time should be extended past 10am. Also extra rubbish bags and cleaning products are required not just the bare amount needed for your stay. It would help if there were some communication around manager's expectations. There was no welcome/information brochure in our apartment. Naturally, we assumed being in a resort, cleaners would vacuum and tidy up after we left. Note, we did sweep with a broom we had bought, clean out the fridge and do dishes. This was a very bad end to our Queensland holiday which will stay with us. I found the manager Hamish generally arrogant and communication poor, seeming to expect customers to intuit what to do. All quite confusing. This apartment has three different names, it is actually associated with Glen Eden Resort but also called Peregian Court Resort and Seaside Getaway. Good to know when sudden payments are taken out of your account for a deposit that wasn't warned about on Booking.com.
• Damian (7/5): Good -
• Anonymous (10/5): Delightful - Location, pool, size Hard to get dishwasher going
• Michel (8/5): The Secret Gem was perfect for our short break secret Gym - Apartment size and location were perfect for us. The pool was lovely. As interstate travellers, it would’ve been great if the property had a beach umbrella, (not for hire) and an ice bucket for our afternoon bubbles. :-)
• Kim (10/5): A lovely relaxed (way too short!) stay in a beautiful apartment in a beautiful location. - The size of the apartment, the decor, the facilities - lovely and private with added value of a private outdoor area and close to the pool. Managers were very friendly and helpful - wanted to stay longer!
• Wayne (9/5): Superb -
• Ann (10/5): Perigian Beach is a lovely little place - great cafes and restaurants, all your holiday requirements including a pharmac - Roomy, very comfortable, well appointed, great location a short walk to the patrolled beach. Nothing
• Jessica (10/5): Exceptional - Everything loved the setup of the place it was relaxing
• Peter (8/5): Very good -
• Ethan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Natalie (10/5): Quiet, comfortable, spacious, close to beach and town. Loved this apartment! - Great apartment, with all facilities we needed. Beautiful garden to look out on and unit was super quiet! Would definitely stay again. Nothing, happy with everything
• Brydie (8/5): It seems to be impossible to avoid in communal resort environments but noise from resort neighbours -
• Lisa (8/5): Excellent! - Very clean and well equipped 😊 Bright lights from outside, curtains were good.
• Gayle (8/5): We loved our stay and will be back. - So close to the beach with wonderful access to the pool. comfortable beds. Easy self check in. Time to replace kettle
• Jackie (9/5): Well equipped cosy little tropical hideaway - We love the resort, it's locality & close proximity yo the beach. Love the beautiful tropical gardens & thr sheltered pool. Very comfortable well equipped apartment There were a few things that the cleaners had missed but overall pretty good. We've stayed in a lovely apartment over the other side of the pool several times. This apartment was close yo David Lowe Way so had a little more road noise
• Jodie (10/5): Exceptional -

• Sindy (9/5): Relaxing, comfortable, homely n close to the beach. - Very relaxing feel of the whole property in and out. The unit was beautiful and comfortable. The only negative was the beds were a little too firm for us. Everything else was great. This is our 2nd time to this complex and we will visit again The firmness of the mattresses. Still slept ok, just a little too firm for us
• Chloe (8/5): Comfortable stay - It's a nice cosy apartment with modern furnishings. Beds were comfy, leather couch was great. Owner was good with communication. It's about a 25 minute walk to town so if you don't have a car be prepared to walk. It's a nice walk though.
