Nice that it was beachfront

We had to be moved to another apartment due to the large living room window leaking and the living room was flooded on arrival

The location and the outlook was just perfect for what I needed for this holiday.

I paid over $203 per night for 19 nights for this holiday and I would have expected that this accommodation would not be so dusty upon arrival. I The main bedroom had 1 bedside lamp which was not even plugged in, plus you had to move the bed to insert the plug. The 2nd bedroom also had a lamp beside the bed with no globe in it as well. The ornaments on the bedside tables each bedroom where totally full of dust. the carpets needs a good clean around the edges to remove the dust as well. I had to ring on the Monday to ask for cleaners to come and remove the pedestal fans (3) which were completely full of dust and rust. These people arrived within 1/2 an hour to service my request. The girls were just fabulous and could see exactly what I was saying about the dust. Even cutlery in the draws were not clean, food still on some. The bathroom also needs a rail for people to climb into the bath for a shower which was not listed when booking the holiday. I realise that these units have been there for 40 years, but I do feel with charging these costs that things could be updated and upgraded, also to suit older people (myself) to be able to breathe upon entry, no air conditioning, filthy fans to use, and feel safe entering the shower. The sofas in the family room were very luxurious but very low and hard to get out of, so I mainly sat at the table or on the deck for suitable chairs. The garage for parking did not lock at all so parking out the front on the street was more suitable as I drive a SUV which was a bit tight to enter as well. I was advised by a grief counsellor to have a R & R holiday to help me relax, so I did like the location and the view but just think that the other things should be addressed for health and safety issues when charging these costs. My parents had also stayed at the Dolphin units some 30 years ago, and at that time they would have been quite to standard. I am happy if you would like to speak with me about this booking.

The location

The apartment was not clean. The plates in the cupboard were dirty. The blankets had holes in them and were very old. The bed had hair in side the sheets.

When we arrived it smelt very mouldy but wasnt too bad when we opened it up. Bathroom is very old and the whole unit could do with a good clean. Couldnt fit the car in the garage. Location is amazing and for this we recommend it and would return.

Location was great amazing views, but out dated and mirrors bathrooms not that clean.spare

Spare blankets need an update, needs new dish sponges , under the sink was not nice and a lot of dust everywhere and the bathroom and toilet need a clean.

The location was excellent great spot walk to everything

Nothing

The balcony had the most amazing views, was directly across the road from the beach and a short stroll to the shops and restaurants. The main bed was comfortable, linen comfortable, water hot and good shower pressure. Washing machine provided (although didn’t use). It was a pleasant surprise to be provided with some essentials. I would rebook knowing I’m going for the balcony and views.

Sadly the unit needs a good clean, I actually went to the shops and got some disinfectant wipes to give things a good wipe over (not because it was all really dirty but because so many basics were not up to my standard, I wondered if the cleaner had made other shortcuts). As others have said the floor is sticky and I was reluctant to take my shoes off. It would be worth their while to invest in a good clean and then it would be easy to upkeep. The mirrored wardrobe doors were, I suggest, cleaned with something other than window cleaner. Windows again could do with a good clean and grout in the shower/bathtub could be attended to. Second bedroom, the two single beds were tiny and completely uncomfortable, the mattress was hard as a rock, so much so my daughter slept on the lounge. Reminded me of a 1970’s unit, which I wouldn’t mind if it was clean. Perhaps the owners/real estate booking office should consider changing cleaners as it’s a shame to write what I have. Just go for the views and wear your thongs inside
