Berkeley on the Beach

The hotel was beautiful and the view was amazing. You will have to bring your own toilet paper. The way it's set up with the keys is ridiculous. The staff thou were absolutely rude and mean. They were greedy and selfish. Won't be recommending them until the staff has changed.

This is a well- located tower of apartments just south of Surfer’s Paradise. The views of the beach are good and the facilities are adequate but dated. The place could use a freshen up but, that said, it was clean and comfortable and well maintained.

Just stayed at Berkeley for 5 nights with my family if 5 (2 kids and an 8 month old). We stayed in the ground floor apartment where you literally looked out onto a grassed yard area, and then the beach! The apartment wasn’t anything flash, but had everything we needed. Was clean, kitchen was well equipped to cook (I was even cooking baby food!) and 2 bathrooms were great for the family. I liked: being on the ground floor meant easy in and out with a stroller ( 2 steps from our room door to foyer and then out - not dealing with lifts etc). Also meant you had more space outside with a patio, rather than a small balcony so plenty of room for the kids to play when baby is napping etc. pool- has been renovated and was just lovely. Heated and great loungers. Being in the ground floor meant the kids could run around the grass to our back little gate and access our apartment without needing the key swipe (this gate can be locked for safety/privacy). Had an indoor spa and sauna and shower/toilet facilities that were great. Location: we were 5 min walk to cavil street in surfers. So close, but just on the edge so it was a bit quieter. I loved my morning beach walks. Paradox coffee was my caffeine saving grace (about an 8 min walk from apartments). I did a Cole’s online grocery shop delivered that was very easy. Tram station just down the road ( took it to pacific fair, very easy). And that ocean beeeze was amazing. Management: Tom and Lucy were just lovely. So easy to deal with and helpful during our stay. Things to note: ground floor apartment has an excellent ocean view- mostly when standing though 🤣. There was shrubbery just outside the patio section that has grown tall enough to block ocean view. (The pics of the garden for ground floor apartment on here show the shrubs are barely there- but see my pic). There was a lovely outdoor lounge which I moved to where the gate was so I could sit and see the ocean with my morning coffee. Great views from dining table and kitchen though. The apartment - while had everything you needed) is not luxury! Reading some other comments on here I was well prepared for that. I knew I wanted ocean front, but had a budget so this place for the bill. But the pics of the ground floor apartment on here are pretty accurate. Good sized kitchen. Full fridge. The main bathroom was quite large- however it’s a shower with a very small bath at the bottom (fine for a kid but if you want a nice bath it’s not big enough) and the shower head was quite low. En-suite is the lovely green tile as per pics but shower is normal. It did have air con in each bedroom and over dining area/lounge. The kitchen lounge dining felt very spacious, with 2 large dark brown leather couches that were comfy. This apartment was great for a family as nothing too fancy to worry about the kids. Tv had foxtel and live tv. We brought up our laptop with a HDMI cable and with the wifi, was able to watch our streaming apps (great for the kids ha!). There w

We stayed 3 nights in a two bedroom apartment. The views are to die for but the apartment is very tired - cracked tiles, dirty walls, stained carpet and furnishings etc. It's comfortable enough to get you through but the managers are definitely relying on "the seaside view" a bit too much.

Right on the beach which is great! However the unit is not clean and a few things broken inside. Also the sewer smell bad.

Fabulous location. Staff are very friendly and accommodating

Good stay for family we had a great time, made our weekend away the perfect getaway. So relaxing and close to everything

had a weekend away with family, 2 separate 2 bedroom apartments vastly different experience, they are individually owned so furnished and maintained differently, our apartment needed a thorough clean and replacement of old carpet, all windows need to be cleaned inside and out and dust removal. Hair on bathroom floor when we arrived so that set the tone of the apartment cleanliness - view was okay and access to the beach but that didnt make up for the apartment failures.
