Pandanus Mooloolaba

From the moment I booked until we left we had a fantastic experience. Kirsten and Kate were amazing. The room blew us away having read other reviews we weren’t sure but the 3 of us loved it. Clean, very spacious, close to everything - brilliant!

We love Pandanus. We have stayed there regularly over the last 8 years or so, staying in 3 bedroom appt or the penthouse with 4 bedrooms twice, once 8 yrs ago and just recently. Its location to the beach, cafes, restaurants, shops, gelato etc is perfect. Unfortunately a high rise parking building was built by the local council right next to pandanus which unfortunately blocked its delicious views of the water. But these are the positives. Now the negatives. We stayed in the penthouse for our family of ten. it suited us space wise very well, even had roll away beds for the 10 & 9 yr old. They loved the pool and spa and gym too. However, the biggest disappointment was how dirty the apt was. We all were convinced that it had not been cleaned at all, simply new bedding and towels put out. The hard wood floors were so dusty and dirty the kids feet were filthy. One room had a pile of saw dust in the sliding door jam of its room. The pillows on the couch were so old they were shredded and torn. How hard is it for owners to buy new pillows. really. We stayed there 8 yrs ago and looked back at the photos and saw the furniture down to the artwork on the walls were still the same. The penthouse is so tired and worn out it is obvious the owners have no interest in taking care of their property but just collecting revenue. We I mentioned to manager that the property was very tired and in desperate need of an upgrade he said the 3 bedroom arts had all been upgraded and our cost reflected the tiredness of the apt. I wish he had told me before I booked and paid over $2000 for 5 nights, perhaps I would have reconsidered as our family prefers cleanliness for sure. The manager sent this email to us on check in, and I quote from it here, "We hope you enjoyed your stay so far. If you need any assistance or anything is not up to your standard, please come by reception and let us know. We will do our best to make your stay better." So on that advice my husband had a chat with the manager. His response about the dirtiness of the apt was, "Oh that's too bad". Not I will send in a cleaner to rectify it. The apt also was supplied with an old electric frying pan we were going to use for dinner as we could not get the oven to work. Unfortunately the plug that was supplied with it was square, needing to go into a round hole. When my husband mentioned this to the manager he responded, "Oh that's interesting." Definitely not I'll send up one that works. My husband took out the vacuum cleaner supplied in the apt to vacuum all the long hairs we discovered on the couch and floors. The vacuum was full, and had little suction to do the job. Very cheap version I guess. Again this was mentioned to the manager whose comment was. "Oh the owners must have left it full". Perhaps the manager needs to go to hospitality school. But in his defence he is working with owners who care very little about their property or the comfort of their guests. My recommendation is to book the 3 bedroom

As returned travellers we enjoyed our stay at Pandanus enormously and we intend to make this a 'go to stop over' on our way up the east coast. We particularly enjoyed the spacious apartment and its position in Mooloolaba. I was easily able to walk down for a morning swim at the Mooloolaba beach. We also enjoyed the convenient coffee shops and local restaurants. The lap pool was a big bonus for my partner and l. Rob and staff were obliging with all requests and enabled storage for our campervan during our stay. We had such a good time we extended our stay twice.

Stayed 3 nights , apartment was amazing. So big and very clean and had everything that we needed. The balconies at each end of the apartment were a bonus and would be great if there was a group of you staying as you wouldn't be in each others pockets all the time. There is a pool and spa but we didn't get around to using them although my husband did use the gym. Only a short walk to the Esplanade where there are plenty of cafes and shops. Perfect for us. Will definitely look to book again if we return to Mooloolaba

These apartments are a great size and are very convenient. We stayed here for two nights and could have easily stayed for more. With front and back balconies there was always something to look at. Every room in the apartment was a very generous size. The kitchen was well appointed. The pool and spa area looked very nice but we didn’t have time to make use of it. The beach, shopping and cafes were only a short walk away and as we were not on the main road we didn’t have any noise to worry us. The Mooloolaba wharf and surf club where close too.

This is one of the largest Apartments I have every stayed in! With 3 large bedrooms, an ensuite, guest bathroom and extra toilet in laundry it was perfect for 3 couples. Very large, well equipped kitchen and enormous lounge/dining area. Plenty of balcony space at both ends of the Apartment as well. Only a short walk to Esplanade, Beach, Coles and Wharf area means you can leave the car in the garage. Lovely pool and spa and very friendly managers. Would happily stay here again and I'm very fussy!!
