“Moments from Mooloolaba Beach and its surf club, this award-winning resort places you steps from both relaxation and local energy, with top-floor apartments even adding rooftop decks for private escapes; I think it's the kind of place that earns its reputation for being both family-friendly and great for couples. With such proximity to the Mooloolaba Esplanade's dining, plus secure parking, the location seems hard to fault for a Sunshine Coast holiday.”
