4/10 Fair

This property is inhabited by what looks like a mix of permanent/semi permanent resident retirees on the one hand and tourists on the other. We found it a mixed experience: the apartment was not very comfortable with cheap furniture and fittings throughout and truly awful fluro lighting. Incredibly, there is NO wifi. In this day and age??? Compounding this problem is that the 4g signal was barely there. So no Netflix streaming etc on your device. There was a DVD player with some unwatchable, dated dvds. But the remote didn't work! The 'kitchen' was very poor - basic, with one hotplate. The mattress was cheap but ok but the blankets supplied were woefully inadequate. Lastly, I had plugged in my Tesla electric car into the 10 amp socket on the back wall of our allocated car space to simply maintain the basic functionality of the car, but someone in their wisdom decided to switch off the outlet for some inexplicable reason. Not a good feeling to have your vehicle interfered with by, presumably, a resident trying to save electricity or a groundperson for reasons I can't begin to understand. On the positive side, the location is excellent for whale watching trips and there was a view of the ocean and beach access. A generous 2 stars out of 5.

Everything was fine, except the fact that wifi is not offered at all. No option to even pay for wifi. It felt like we were back in the 1990s when the internet was a luxury and most people did not have access to it. This not made explicit in the description of the property.

Great view of Fraser Island, quiet and peaceful. Pool was nice after a game of tennis. Place needs some freshing up as it shows signs of its age.
