Disappointing and Dirty.
On checking in the receptionist immediately told us that the fly screen on the main balcony door was ripped, but that it would be replaced the following day - we stayed for five days and no one came to fix it. Within half hour of getting into our apartment the air con unit on the wall was streaming water down the wall and onto the floor. The temperate was set at the temperature we were told to maintain it at. We went to report this to the lady at reception only to be told that it couldn’t be looked at that day and she handed us two towels to soak up the excess water on the floor. So we were expected to walk around towels on a slippery tiled floor. The bathrooms were extremely run down and dirty. Toilet was dirty, mould all over the shower screens, ripped lampshade, old broken window blinds, dirty rings on surfaces. The only good thing about this apartment was the view of the ocean. The pool and grounds are also nice. Definitely not a resort experience or worth its 4 star rating.

5 star resort
Our stay at the Coral Sands Resort was amazing. Our superior room was comfortable and roomy for 4 guests and a baby. The pool was clean and the gardens well maintained and had access to the beach through a back gate. The view was beautiful of the pool and beach. The staff were very friendly and checked in before and on leaving the resort. Would recommend.

Didn't like the high step required to get in & out for older people. Shower screen is very narrow resulting in splash. Required to wait over an hour past check in to access apartment. Excellent pool. Plenty of space in apartment.

Highly recommend a stay at Coral Sands. Suited our family perfectly. Close proximity to beach and restaurants. Pool and gardens were immaculate. Loved having the full kitchen and washing machine. Quiet and safe location, but still plenty happening in town.

Location was good. Unit was listed as “ocean view”. I think this is misleading and partial ocean view or obstructed OV would be more accurate at best. The unit had an “old” odour and was in need of updating despite a recent paint job and new sofa. The quality of furniture was not that of a 4 star property as listed. Expedia also listed as a hotel- this is not a hotel but a self contained property. Smoking on the balconies was also not appealing. Local restaurants provided good Food. Pool area and grounds were well Maintained. Make sure you have pool towels unless you want to rent them!

We loved our stay at coral sands- it was the perfect place to finish our holiday/ an ideal location- beach and pool on the doorstep- a few restaurants and cafes in close walking distance. The place was clean and ideal for our young family. Will definitely be back.

Loved the location. Family friendly and nice atmosphere. I didn't like the beds at all,every movement can be felt through the springs and made for some bad nights sleep. Be sure to bring your own pool towels as they are not provided.

Terribly maintained
Broken dining chairs, unpainted walls, broken bathroom fixtures, saggy beds this hotel stay had it all. Unfortunately as each unit has individual owners it appears the resort has no standards and as a result our appartments looked like the last time it recieved any maintanence was some time ago.

Coral Sands is a nice resort in a great location, across the street from Trinity Beach. The resort has several apartments over 3 levels, with underground parking, but no elevator. We are seniors and getting our luggage up and down the stairs was a feat in itself. The property has beautiful gardens and a large pool - great for families. Communication with the resort could be improved. The resort emails that are sent to guests are mostly non-replyable,so this does not allow for two-way communication. That aside, the resort is well kept and only a few steps from the beach.

Fumes.
There were many positives: a large pool, free BBQ's, & a large 2BR unit which was well-supplied & fitted out. BUT They allow smoking on the balconies, which was an issue. Our unit was in the L-shaped bend, and was one of the few where a neighboring unit balcony not only gave view of our balcony but into the front of our unit. Wouldn't be an issue except the next-door resident (? permanent) was a chain-smoker (2-4 times per hour!), & the predominant SE winds & the laws of physics resulted in the smoke eddying & in fact concentrating into the SW corner & us being prisoners - unable to sit or air our towels/bathers/clothes on the balcony, nor open our doors. Even with the patio doors shut our room smelled of smoke, & the stairwell (having permanently semi-open wooden slats) smelled fiercely from the concentrated fumes. Smoking status is not a usual requirement to be disclosed on booking, but I would have to suggest that anyone wanting to stay here specifically ask to have a room away from the bend or NOT next to a room with a known smoker.
