Worst Holiday Ever! 2 BEDROOM Rooftop What a joke. So tiny! Nowhere to sit and eat properly. Broken door, power socket. 2nd bedroom, bed was in front of cupboard with door opening on to other side. Cupboard was unusable not just because of location but also tiny triangular shape inside. Was not welcoming at all. Tv. Was awkwardly placed in front of tiny table . On arrival there is a list of what ...

We had a great stay! The location is amazing — step right outside to cafés and the surf club, and it’s only a short walk to the beach. The facilities are excellent; we used the pool during the day and loved that it’s semi-indoor, so there was always a shaded area. Our room also came with a rooftop spa, which was a lovely bonus. While the rooms themselves are a little older, they were still clean a...

Love this accom so much! Amazing location. Super close to the beach and Mooloolaba Surf Club. The rooftop apartment was clean with a huge bathroom, open plan kitchen and lovely balcony plus the added bonus of an extra private rooftop terrace with my own private spa, BBQ and seating area with ocean views. Stunning to sit out there by the moonlight. Would 1000% stay here again.

We recently spent a night at The Nautilus and wanted to leave a review because the service was excellent. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and accommodating. We were able to check in early and were also welcome to use the facilities after checking out, which made a big difference for us as a family. The location was excellent — not beachfront, but just a short walk to everything we ne...

Great location, right next to the beach and near great restaurants next to the Wharf. Pool is a bit smaller than expected, and spa in the room was out of service. Shampoo and conditioner in the room shower smelt amazing! The car park is a bit crazy, but we definitely loved our stay here and would stay again for sure :)
