Avani Mooloolaba Beach Hotel ★★★★

📍 10 Brisbane Rd, Mooloolaba

"Great place to stay in Mooloolaba. Only been open for about 2 months. Excellent room layout, very sensible. Lights & their switches are really sensible & easy to use. Often hotel rooms can be too dark. This one gives you all the options & does not require a drgree in lighting to make it work. Even a bedside light that enables you to easily read in bed. Quite spacious, comfortable bed and great shower. Beautiful seaside views on rooms facing the sea. Really nice restaurant on the 12th floor. At breakfast its reserved for guests.Unbelievably friendly & efficient staff. Food is great also!!"

Oceans Mooloolaba Hotels in Mooloolaba

Oceans Mooloolaba

"My husband and I came to Mooloolaba to cycle around the area for 2 days and Oceans was the perfect place to stay. The location is ideal and our room was very comfortable with a lovely view, a comfy bed, a beautiful spacious bathroom, and nice furniture - so bright and sunny! It was so handy to have our own laundry machine and a kitchenette. We had a nice patio with table and chairs looking out to the ocean and we loved having happy hour there before going out to one of the nearby restaurants for dinner. The promenade out front of the hotel is so fun and vibrant - full of shops and restaurants for many blocks. It was very private. We only saw staff for check-in and check-out and they were very friendly and helpful. Our car was parked below in secure parking. And there was a grocery store about a block away. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. We definitely would stay here again."

Beachside Resort Kawana Waters Hotels in Mooloolaba

Beachside Resort Kawana Waters

"A pleasant surprise. Tidy and spacious apartment about 100m from the beach. Gym, sauna and pool. Very friendly staff. The beach is superb with huge, gentle waves and warm water. Life savers right there. An RSL-run club is just off the beach and residents get 10% off. About 200m in the opposite direction is an absolutely enormous shopping complex. Mooloolaba is about 10 minutes drive away. This is the perfect situation. Each room has a fan and the main living area has aircon. Highly recommended."

Mandolin Beachfront Resort Hotels in Mooloolaba

Mandolin Beachfront Resort

"The room is bit old but clean, great location and the pool and spa are nice. The kids’ play room is old and bit messy, unfortunately the reception staff was not on site so when we need to contact the staff over the phone she sounded confused too😂"

Alexandra on the Pacific Hotels in Mooloolaba

Alexandra on the Pacific

"My wife has just had to attend several medical appointments on the Sunshine Cost, so we decided to stay for 3 nights at the Alaxandra on the Pacific and book unit 6 which is a beach front apartment on the first floor. The views are almost central to the bay, and you can see the whole area from left to right which was just beautiful. The 3-bedroom apartment, fully equipped, very modern. extremely clean and is very comfortable. A great stay for a family or group of friends up to 6 persons. Underground secure parking for 2 cars included in your rental. You are within walking distance of both the beach or the shopping area where there are many restaurants if you want to eat out or you have a fully equipped kitchen if you decide to do your own thing in the unit. David the unit's manager was friendly and very helpful. Overall, this is easily a 5 star stay. You won't be disappointed."

Direct Collective - Breeze on Brightwater Hotels in Mooloolaba

Direct Collective - Breeze on Brightwater

"The hotel is almost like no front desk, self check-in. The hotel called in advance to communicate. It is a townhouse. The swimming pool is not big, so I didn't go."

Northpoint Holiday Apartments Hotels in Mooloolaba

Northpoint Holiday Apartments

"Booked our trip when we saw a great deal for this place. Upon arrival, realised quickly why it was cheaper than the other places in the area. We were told at check in, on the first day of a long weekend, that ‘bad news’ - the air con in our apartment was not working. Predicted temps 32-34° each day. We were offered a measly 15% discount for this, which we managed to get to 25%. Wow. The room was disgusting and outdated - broken lamp, stained dirty couch, broken bed, uncomfortable mattresses, broken doors, no air flow, terrible slow fans, lights without lightbulbs. We expected the room would be a little outdated, but this was unliveable and even for what we paid, this was a ripoff. We got about 3 hours sleep each night because it was so hot, to the point that we even considered leaving at 1am and driving 2.5 hours home on our second night because we simply couldn’t do it again. I would never wish this place upon my worst enemy. How they can ethically sell us that room, is beyond me. What made all this worse was the attitude from the staff at check in: ‘feel free to find somewhere else’ basically. What would’ve been nice was being told when the aircon broke, which was earlier in the week - we would’ve potentially had time to cancel and find alternative arrangements, or worse case know to bring pedestal fans from home (since these weren’t provided either, thanks so much!)."

Pacific Beach Resort Hotels in Mooloolaba

Pacific Beach Resort

"Nice sea view, even if I was in a lower floor (3/F) that the see was partially blocked by the trees. I was also able to get a magnificient shot on star trail, just from the balcony. The apartment itself is fine but a bit oldfashioned. Everyone menthioned the stupid Blue Fob, I had to say it's really stupid, it's not affecting the experimence much though. "

"It was a wonderful place to stay for my friend and fur daughter. It was a home away from home. Would definetely come again. It was so close to cafes and beaches. Will be recommending to my friends. I also loved being able to relax on the balcony and watch the sun setting. We even saw a possum walking on the telephone wire."

"Good value for the area and a great location. Bar and dining were convenient and the chicken parma next door was nice. Room was clean though the bathroom was a little tired. Mark down is for the cockroach family - daddy, mummy, baby cockroach that obviously live in the bathroom - they were pretty friendly though!"

"Bowls and cups had some debris inside. We booked a large room for 6 people but were only provided with 2 sets of small toiletries: shampoo, body wash, conditioner, and one hairdryer. We needed to call reception twice; there was no answer on the first call. We asked for more toiletries on the first night, and the lady at the reception said she couldn't provide them that night and told us to meet her at reception the next morning. I did, but no one was there. I went three times. I finally got more shampoo, body wash, and conditioner on day 3 when I luckily met a staff member at the counter. The jacuzzi in the master room was under maintenance and couldn't be used. Overall, I was disappointed with the facilities and services. I do not recommend this place and will not visit again."
