Top Sunshine Beach Hotel Reviews

Beach Retreat Coolum

8/10 Good

"Spacious central base with great access to beach and amenities. Comfortable but basic, helpful staff, decent wi-fi and washing machine in the apartment."

Noosa Lakes Resort

8/10 Good

"Everything about the presentation of the apartment was fine, only point of note was we were down stairs and the upstairs unit has wooden floors and sound acoustics were awful for us as there were a couple of young guest upstairs and they were late night & early morning running and jumping making a hell of a racket. No hotels fault they had poor parental controls but it is poor acoustics."

Novotel Sunshine Coast Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at the Novotel was fantastic, the older rooms are tired and in needing for a upgrade however the grounds and facilities make up for it. The new rooms are beautiful, spacious and worth the extra money. The staff were so helpful and lovely, activities for the kids were thoughtful and well planned. The only downside to this property is the food. The food selection was minimal and there were next to no vegetables offered. You are a 30 min walk to the closest IGA or other cafe so just something to consider if you don't have a car."

Chez Noosa Holiday Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay at this accommodation for over a week. Gary & Mark were very welcoming & friendly when we arrived. And gave us some really great recommendations on what to do in the local area & surrounding hinterland. We loved the Sunshine Beach SLSC for meals/drinks. This property is great value for money. The apartment was exceptionally clean, well equipped & nicely decorated. Found it a handy and quiet location. Ample parking. We would stay again!"
