"My adult daughter and I stayed there for couple nights to go to the Great Barrier Reef. The apartment was very spacious and really suitable for a family stay at least week…. The furniture maybe a bit outdated but was still good. My only recommendation is to have coffee pods available for the coffee machine. When I’m on vacation I need my coffee in the morning and I shouldn’t have to go look where to find coffee."
