The apartment was infested with bed lice. I have photos and videos to prove. Ruined our holidays. The mattress had dirty stains and the apartment had an awful moulded smell. Would not recommend this apartment to anyone. Book the rooms at the oaks pacific blue through the hotel directly not through the realestate, Big mistake for us. ##### Haysam Amna Y.

Feb 14, 2016 #### Great location We stayed here early Feb 2016\. 2 adults and 2 children. Resort is great. Pool is fantastic. The accommodation was pleasant and had everything you need. Only minor complaint would be the furniture in the 2nd room 'kids room' was fairly worn out and could do with an upgrade. Unfortunately we had to leave after a few days (were booked for a week) due to a death in the family; however would definitely look at returning. ##### Anonymous S. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Joanne S. Jan 15, 2016 #### A comfortable place to stay We had the privelage of staying at this resort for 4 nights. It is an extremely comfortable unit with all you need at your finger tips. A fully equiped kitchen with all you need to cook or serve up takeaway. A cupboard with kids board games and a bookshelf full of book only 1 tv but a DVDs player (DVDs movie hire across the road) this unit is with img a 2 minute drive to the local shops with Coles, woollies & Aldi and speciality shops galore. It's a short 10 metre stroll to the pool from the back of your unit and the pool is just great only 0.9 deep all the way round but enjoyable and safe for the kids with shallow walkways and 3 spas for the grown ups. The back bedroom is west facing and we found it very hot for the kids in the late afternoon/evening - there is a fan in this room but it did little to cool it down. The air con in the main is good as is the unit in the main living areas down stairs. A great place to stay ##### Joanne S. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Maria Dec 28, 2015 #### Perfect spot Stayed for 4 nights...
