Pool was heated and it also had a large spa. Apartment was a good size for the 4 of us and had a decent sized kitchen with washer and dryer. Enjoyable stay. ##### Cathy Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Catherine Nov 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication Lovely staff who let us check out late which was so helpful as we had a late flight and lots of luggage. Big apartment on the ground floor and well worth the extra money especially if you have children. Some shops and restaurants are walkable. Lovely large pools ##### Catherine Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Anthony Apr 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Wet weather blues 😞 We planned a weekend away well in advance of our daughters 14th birthday. Her birthday surprise was for her to swim with the seals at Sea Life which she was able to do but the rest of the weekend was a washout with heavy rain. Not the resorts fault but we werent able to enjoy the resorts facilities at all. The staff were lovely, the apartment was superclean and beds comfy. That pool looked inviting as did the beach that was footsteps away and we'll definitely be back again in future and hopefully better weather next time. ##### Anthony Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alexandra Oct 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The setting was perfect for a fan of 3 who loves their big space. Note the mw oven is not working but this didn't have any impact on our stay Great heated pool and spa and we were lucky to have picky very few other people around ##### Alexandra Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Gwynneth Jun 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, communication We really enjoyed our stay at the Sand Dunes Resort. The pool and view from the balcony were both fantastic and staff were friendly. The apartment was spacious and in fair condition but looked a bit unloved in some places with scuff marks and dents on the walls, nicks out of the bath tub and sinks not scrubbed throughly etc. Curiously neither of our bathrooms had a fan which meant the entire room got very misty. But otherwise a great place to stay and especially good for families with kids. ##### Gwynneth Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jane Aug 4, 2023 Liked: Room comfort Disliked: Cleanliness #### Sand Dune surprise Sand Dunes Resort is located in fairly quiet part of Sunshine Coast away from the hustle and bustle. Great if you love planes as it so close to the airport. The pool is fabulous and close to the beach. We were disrupted by the painting of the property which was very obtrusive however once we complained we were compensated. I was also disappointed by cleaning - the upper floor wasn’t vacuumed and walls and doors need a good clean. Despite the negatives I would return. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A825226BD45C9919AFBAE9F461878C27BBE0C9761691145066856.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2C1364335A68A3DC121382401A656398D777D4F51691145066686.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jane Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Merina Oct 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Had a great stay in this amazing clean apartment.
