The bedrooms needed updating and the air-conditioning was noisy in the bedrooms. The rest of the unit was lovely

Very well located position with great scenic views

Pros: Position and views
Cons: Maintenance
Location: Shops, restaurants and other facilities in easy walking distance.
The level 5 unit had uninterrupted views across the inland water ways, the sea and the hills to the north. The unit was clean and functional however it is in need of maintenance....finishes knocked about, cracks appearing between tiles & benchtops, skirtings and walls and tiles broken in shower floor to name a few. Invite of these defects we had an enjoyable stay.

Well positioned apartment with water views

Pros: Has everything in it you could need.
Cons: make check in times clear. Not from 2pm - AT 2pm. I didn't think 4 was outside boundaries but apparently it's out of line. More dishwasher tabs not 1
Location: Surrounded by many eating places and not far to a major shopping centre if you need. Markets in the streets on weekends. Foodmart walking distance.
Was a well positioned apartment with water views. A lovely balcony to sit on. Has all the bits and pieces you need in the apartment. Surrounded by many eating places and not far to a major shopping centre if you need. Lovely little community at cotton tree. Markets in the streets on a weekend. Just a lovely relaxing stay. The staff were a little grumpy - it's an apartment complex not a hotel so it's a site manager. But we didn't see them much after check in so all good. Will be going back there.

Great location, great views

Pros: Location and access
Cons: Some fittings and furnishings a bit shabby and need updating. Repairs need to done when and where necessary.
Location: Junction of river and ocean. Lots of water activities, paddle boarding, canning, surfing, acquatic centre, cycling paths, walking paths, playgrounds.
Easy to deal with, friendly. Pleasant rooms, but fittings getting a bit tired, and worn. 1 towel per person, for eight days, so had to wash or pay for more. No instructions for using dishwasher, washing machine etc. good sized fridge, great undercover parking. Shade blind fell down in living room, reported, but not fixed before we left. Cupboard door off bottom hinge when we arrived. However, the unit absolutely suited our needs, for 3 generations sharing, one of whom was recovering from major surgery. Easy access. Lovely walking, flat, beach, river and parks. Would stay there again, and would now be better prepared for restrictions.

Very quiet and peaceful with wonderful views

Pros: The peace, the order, and the views.
Cons: Personally I would like to be greeted by a receptionist, digital technology.
Location: The river and the beach were wonderful, we were attending conferences in Nambour and Maleny, thoroughly enjoyed the drive to Maleny.
I book the room on behalf of 2 Egyptians from the desert, they were overwhelmed with the views, the river, the beach, the peace, quiet and tranquility, the air and the cultural freedom of the people of Cotton Tree.
