NIce Large Apartment in secluded location. Clean and comfortable.
A heater would have been handy as Atherton can be cold at night.

Lovely clean place with beautiful views.
The air conditioner was freezing and no romote to change it with, had to turn it off completly using the handle of a dustpan brush
Advertised free wi-fi, had to pay $20 for 24 hours if you wanted to, even if only for an hour

We upgraded to 1 bedroom self contained. Our experience was fine, however there was ants coming into the kitchen and bedroom. We had fun visitors, brush turkey and Paddy melons (kangaroo).
I found for the price of it per day is expensive for that small of a space.
The customer service is good.

We loved this place so much we decided to stay another 2 nights Originally we had a share kitchen experience The views are spectacular & our room was perfect! Sadly it was booked for the next 2 nights so we luckily got an apartment on the same property. It’s self contained & seperate from the other rooms Would recommend this place to anyone visiting Atherton

It was beautiful. Was clean. Loved the hot spa. Had a beautiful view also.
My only critique is, there was no heater and no extra towels. We stayed a couple nights and our towels remained damp as there was no heat or sun out. But other than than, we loved our stay. Definitely recommend.

stayed in the studio apartment, no curtains or blinds in the kitchen area off which is the bathroom. To travel between the bed to the bathroom there is no privacy, and this is ground level and the BBQ area and shared cloths line is right there. King bed is 2 singles pushed together with no topper. Aircon has no controller, it is set and you push a button on the unit to turn on with no way to adjust the temperature. very quiet location, a bit exposed at night, with not much lighting at entry door which is from a yard.

Booked this online and didn't know what to expect on arrival! I was stunned to see how beautiful the view was. The rooms are basic but clean. I spent most of the time on the huge balcony enjoying the incredible views anyway. There was everything that you need in the fully equipped kitchen and the pool was lovely. Can't fault the summit

Dissapointed
Average stay. Tv didnt work, flat batteries in remote. Sons bed sheet was dirty. Didnt look like a damp cloth used in bedroom. Very dusty, mirror was very dusty. Smelled of mould when we opened door. Toaster was full of crumbs. Not sure when this was last cleaned. Only one towel per person and no pool towel. No spare bin bags. Tried to call office at 4.30pm but just got message. The web page suggested nice views, only for some. Ours was a blank wall from the verandah or a telstra tower. The front doors were all glass and looked straight at the bunk beds. No curtain or blind for privacy.
