Like another reviewer said as you drove up the complex look really nice and the location was great. We got to reception at 3pm on a Saturday and no-one was there. You had to buzz and the manager let you in and came to greet you. It didn't take too long but was a bit weird. Apon entering our 3... More

This place is getting a little old and probably not worth what they charge. The apartments are pretty old, poorly decorated, the air conditioning smelt terrible to the point where we couldn't use it.... More

We have returned to the same unit over many years. Unfortunately during these years not much money has been spent on the overall complex and it is getting tired. Individual owners have replaced items such as washers, dryers, dishwashers, stoves and window fittings as required, but the sun, sand and sea takes its toll on the external and internal fittings....

What a shame this place is! It has a fabulous position BUT the beds are a disgrace, the furniture has holes in it and is little more than firewood - the blinds are falling apart with the veneer coming off when you open and close them, water stained and don't work. There was a mildewed lamp shade in the 2nd... More

I have escaped to Straddy over the last 15 years and have come across the best place to stay. The location is incredible, amazing views, walking distance to very good surf and beautiful headlands/beaches.

From the outside it looks quite nice and the resort is located in a lovely location, but once you enter the apartment this place rears it's ugly head. Although the apartments are spacious, the furniture and fittings are all old and much of it damaged and delapidated. We also had a missing remote from the A/C unit so we couldn't... More

Mums 60th... and it's been a couple of years since we all stayed at Straddie so booked the friday/saturday nights for 17 family members and friends and paid extra per night per room for 'ocean view' rooms. We ended up with 3 units at the road end of the building with 2 being ground floor units and actual ocean views... More

The rooms are simply huge! And it's fully self-contained so you can stay in or eat out, whatever you like. The location is fantastic with the beach only minutes away on foot. The local pub is a good spot for dinner with views across the water. The rooms at Whale Watch have everything you could ask for - aircon, TV,... More
