The Sebel Maroochydore

At the present times 2024 December The Sebel Maroochydore has No Pool it is a construction zone. It will be this way until April 2025 . The jack hammer is deafening every day. DO NOT STAY HERE. After work is complete it will be okay but for the next 5 months do yourself a favour and go somewhere else.

Apart from all the construction next to and behind the building and the pool repairs the main road is incredibly noisy. There are traffic lights right out the front and everyone takes off spinning their tyres. The hotel itself is very run down. We booked for 3 nights, only stayed 1.

The views of the ocean were very nice and the room was spacious and very clean.

Never in my life have I had to deal with a staff member so rude. There were multiple occasions where the front desk worker Olivia was unprofessional and dismissive, offering absolutely no help when we were locked out of our apartment and again when a belonging of mine went missing. Her manner was abrupt & argumentative from the get go. At one point she actually raised her palm up to cut me off whilst I was expressing my concerns and was constantly talking over me. I have never felt so belittled in my life. Her interpersonal skills are absolutely atrocious and I am still struggling to comprehend how a person this hostile could be employed by the hotel. I would not recommend that anyone stays here.

It seems from previous reviews that the standard of apartments in this block vary greatly. Many if not all are privately owned hence the difference. As it happens we had a very clean. comfortable apartment on the 6th floor for a week. I think the floorplan of most of the apartments is much the same with 2 bedrooms, two bathrooms, lounge and balcony. Our apartment had a very comfortable king size bed in one bedroom and a queen size bed in the other together with an en-suite bathroom. The kitchen / lounge area had a very good sized fridge, microwave and dishwasher. A large 65" TV in the lounge and a smaller TV in one of the bedrooms. They all had access to the various streaming services but for the paid services like Netflix you needed you own logon. The ABC and SBS services were available. The lounge furniture was good, the couch, lounge chairs and dining table were comfortable. The balcony had table and chairs so you could have meals there. There were also two sun lounges. The only issue was the wi-fi speed. We had read that the speed would be 25 bps which is very slow by today's standard but unlike many other holiday apartments it was free but don't expect to be watching YouTube clips if someone else in your apartment is online at the same time - in fact sometimes it can be so slow as to be unusable. Many other holiday apartments we checked required an extra payment for the wi-fi or had other restrictions. A curious issue when we expect hotels, etc to provide usable wi-fi as a matter of course.

Awesome view Great location and views. Beautiful apartments.
