Ipanema Holiday Resort

The views from level 10 were amazing of mountains, street and ocean. It was a very spacious unit and had everything we needed.

Has great views, it’s a tad loud in the apartment due to the city life below. A few of the appliances such as the kitchen faucet was loose/wobbly, the shower head and bath tap would leak unless set perfectly to the middle. The shower also hasn’t the biggest shower screen so the water would spray everywhere due to high pressure. However the bathtub was the perfect depth and made for a relaxing bath. We loved the beds but would have preferred if the pillows weren’t as flat.., having heating/cooling access in the room was ideal due to it being winter and would be ideal for summer as well. The apartment is in an awesome location - short walks to cafes, service stations and the tram line. The sunrise and sunsets were beautiful to watch coming over the river/sea on the balcony on the comfortable outside seating. Kitchen utensils were great and in abundance, laundry was amazing and we loved having our own private parking. The staff of Ipanema were very swift, kind & helpful upon check in and it was a simple key drop off upon check out. We would stay here again ☀️

The location was fabulous, close to the beach, close to the tram line, easy access to the centre of Surfers Paradise and restaurants. The downside was the parking issue, for example cars in incorrect spaces. Information from reception was very poor regarding iregarding the complex eg amenities and linen as the reception was unattended for our entire 7 day stay. However we would recommend the Ipanema and also stay again.

I stayed in a small studio on the 12th floor...amazing views! Very clean etc.The sad part was the wifi...it hardly worked and was very frustrating! Also the kitchen needs another drawer or small cupboard. Its a nice place,but needs a bit more attention.
