Malibu Apartments

Centrally located on the Esplanade with stunning ocean views, offering easy access to amenities. Guests appreciate the friendly and helpful staff, as well as the comfortable and spacious bedrooms.

It was a toss betewen 3 and 4 stars We arrived early and were met by the friendly owner (?) who was really helpful. We intended to just park up and wander around until check in time, but we were able to check in early which was helpful, and even though the lifts were not going at the time they still took our bags up! This place is in a great location, you just go downstairs and head to the Esplanade. No need to drive around Mooloolaba and find a park. The view was good too. The room didn't feel overly clean but it was a generous size, and although felt slightly dated it appears to have been somewhat revamped. We were unfortunately quite cold overnight as the bedroom was at the far end where the heat couldn't reach as the windows were smaller so didn't light up the room too well either. There were a couple of spare blankets but they were also thin (and unfortunately dirty). The building itself is very outdated. In places it looked like it was in the midst of being refreshed maybe, but it was hard to tell. Unfortunately, the lifts being out of order made for a bit of a hike to the room, but we were told way in advance before we arrived that this was the case, so we knew to expect that and were given a discount accordingly which we really appreciate as well. Hopefully it does get a bit of a revamp, but I think it's fair to say we'll be back :)

Very disappointed with the whole building, very outdated and needs a good clean. We had the rooftop room with spa. The room was very dated, the vent was falling out of the roof in the shower, the room needs to be refurbished and was not worth the amount paid. Location and views were great, the whole apartment is dated, appliances need upgrading, the bbq on roof top was rusting, furniture showing its age. Apartment needed a good clean. Bed was comfortable. Will not be returning or recommending. Not sure what other apartments were like. Spa in pool area didn't work properly and was dirty.
