“A stay here places you mere steps from Mooloolaba Beach, with top-floor apartments adding private rooftop terraces for lounging. I noticed some opinions mentioning the decor may feel dated in places, but you're booking for location more than lavish interiors. With surfside views and secure parking, it's a practical choice for families or couples wanting a relaxed beach vacation.”
