Our stay at the resort was quite mixed. On one hand, the location was simply gorgeous with stunning views from the balcony, and the cleanliness of the unit was commendable. On the other hand, the management left a lot to be desired, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere during our visit. Furthermore, although the unit was charming, it was showing its age and could use some updates.

The room was clean and comfortable, featuring a breathtaking view that truly elevated our experience. I appreciated the amenities offered, but it would have been even better with some modern updates.

Unfortunately, the service fell short of expectations. Our interactions with the management made us feel unwelcome rather than relaxed, which was a significant downside during our stay.

The facilities were decent, with a well-maintained pool area that we enjoyed. However, some areas, including the stairs and common spaces, could have benefitted from more thorough cleaning.

I returned to The Waterview Resort, and it truly felt like home again. The managers have worked hard to enhance the beauty of the place, with lovely fresh paint and the gardens looking splendid. However, my recent experience highlights some concerns, especially around the service, which significantly impacted my stay. While the views from the balconies remain incredible, a lack of attention to cleanliness and some unprofessional behavior were disappointing.

My recent stay at Waterview Resort was a mixed bag. On one hand, the location was unbeatable with stunning views and easy access to the beach. The unit itself was clean and comfortable, making for a pleasant stay. However, the service from the new management left much to be desired, particularly due to their unprofessional behavior and the unpleasant smell of cigarette smoke in certain areas. Overall, while I enjoyed the accommodations, the management issues certainly hindered my experience.

I had a mixed experience at The Waterview Resort. On one hand, the location was ideal for enjoying Caloundra, and the views were nothing short of spectacular. However, I encountered some major issues with management that made my stay less enjoyable. The cleanliness fell short, and the overall atmosphere didn’t feel welcoming. While the penthouse units are an amazing choice, the service issues might make me think twice about returning.

The Waterview Resort is in a fantastic location with easy access to Bullcock Beach and local eateries, making it a great base for exploring. The units are comfortable and well-maintained, providing a clean environment to relax in. However, depending on the unit, amenities might not be ideal, as some kitchens could be better equipped. Overall, the value for money is good, especially if you choose a penthouse unit with its stunning views.
