We were there for 7 days, stayed at Santana Resort and loved the clean, convenient place. The managers/owners were incredibly friendly and helpful, it's awesome. The room we stayed basically has everything, from kitchen utensils to washing machine to sofa bed.

Although we were tired beyond words, I insisted on swimming that night. And of course, energy comes from everywhere when you're having fun. Swam 'till the pool closes :) It was also my first time, actually trying out an outdoor jacuzzi since they have one, so it was so much fun. Fun for couples, friends and families.

Location wise, just about 5 minutes walk to a bus station that connects you to other bus stations to other main themed parks e.g Waterpark and Movie World, so it's no hassle.

There's a very nice and quaint Mexican and Vietnamese food down the road, so if you're thinking of sleeping in early, you can opt to try these restaurants. There is a petrol station right behind the lodge so it's convenient when you need anything quick.

All in all, it was good. The bus stop really helped.

Our room looked very cheap. I have absolutely no idea what made our room "premium". Filthy carpets and cheap furniture. Having seen pictures of other rooms that are premium and then seeing ours made us feel very ripped-off. Non existent staffing.

Tucked in behind the Gold Coast Highway is this little treasure, coming down from Brisbane we like to go to the coast to enjoy the nightlife and beaches, this place is budget friendly and close to all of the action, unit was spacious and clean. Well decorated with a great bbq and pool area. Friendly staff you won't be disapointed.

Our family stayed here for 3 nights from Christmas Day. Reception was closed but check-in was easy: by phone, room key in safe, felt like a secret agent! The 1 bedroom apartment had everything we needed in a fully-equipped kitchen (except food of course) including an oven. The bedroom looked updated + had a queen-size bed sadly we discovered you needed to pay for the air-conditioner. The bathroom (lacking a window) had a washer + dryer which was wonderful for a family's needs! The hot-water only needed a small turn of the tap/s and the water pressure was great. Our only issues were: sofa-bed mattress needs replacing urgently, the vertical blinds were outdated and a nuisance (invest in quality drapes), bath towels should equal the same number of guests, glass table-tops are silly for families. However my Fiance and I agreed this place would suit young adults and couples as WE enjoyed ourselves our children hated being told to stay away from potential problem areas. Also the space in the apartment is small suitable for adults not children.
