Beds are way too soft & comfortable for my liking, though everyone is different. My suggestion is that they review their safety markings on changes of height from driveway to pathway - in particular at the end of walkway from the units to the checkout driveway. I managed to go up and down Mt Coolum without a "having a fall" (apparently that what they call it at my age, 72), yet fell over at this spot when going to refill my glass milk bottle. (glass bottle survived without a scratch). Strip of yellow and black at end of walkway is recommended 😉.

We found ourselves needing some emergency overnight accommodation upon landing at the airport at 6pm in the middle of the busy Xmas period. This place was available and we weren't expecting much. But it was fine. The friendliest reception ever, free coffee, tea, fruit and water, and a short walk to the beach for an early morning swim. Although on the road we didn't hear traffic overnight. A lifesaver.
