“Stayed here on a last minute 2 night break with 2 young kids. Got a great apartment facing the seafront. Friendly staff, very accommodating in getting us a second night. We needed to see that sunset 1 more time! Nice and clean, all in working order, laundry was great to have. Kids even braved the pool (in winter) briefly. Very secure. Individual lock up garage for each apartment was great.”

“Sylvan Beach Resort: Apartment #12 Excellent stay, the apartment on arrival was very clean! This is a perfect family stay, the kitchen is well equiped the untensils for those wanting to cook, hot/cold water pressure in the shower is great not that you need hot water during an Australia Summer. The laundry has both a washing machine and dryer or clothes can be dried on the balcony which gets a lovely breeze. The apartment is two bedroom, the master bedroom is larger, suitcase can be laid out with plenty of space to move around. The wardrobes have plenty of extra bedding again not needed in Summer. The second bedroom has 2 single beds, perfect for kids. It also has toys in the wardrobe if needed (our kids didnt) The lounge has a comfortable couch, large t.v & DVD player. The resort sits next to the Bribie Hotel, walkable distance for food and drinks. A little further down you'll find 2 fish 'n chip shops. In summary: Location is perfect and very easy to find! Apartment size was perfect for 4 & the rental manager Shaye was a great help.”
