“Disclaimer: we paid the room with Qantas points. Not sure if my review would be different paying full price, but overall we're quite happy with our stay. The room was massive with everything you need: kitchen with fridge, dishwasher, microwave and hot plates; huge bathroom with hydro bathtub, large TV with Foxtel and a large balcony with bbq. Everything was clean and functional. We thought that the toilet being in the shower cabin was a weird design. Even though the cabin is large, the ground in front of the toilet gets wet after a shower. I found the Wifi to be problematic as well, quite weak from our bedroom, and mobile reception isn't amazing either, so connectivity in general can be an issue. It's winter, so it was quiet, but I can imagine this place getting quite noisy in summer as the way it's designed there's a lot of echo in corridors and the pool area. They also have a secured underground parking for guests. The swimming pool area definitely gives South East Asia resort vibes. The beach is close, and there's a Coles and a few shops / restaurants at a walking distance. The rest of the neighbourhood is just residential, so not much happening. But in my opinion it's well located to check various places in land and along the coast. We went to Lamington NP, Springbrook NP, Tyalgum and a bit north and south of Casuarina and everything felt at a reasonable distance.”

“Here’s a polished positive review you could post for Oaks Casuarina: Had a fantastic stay at Oaks Casuarina! The apartment was spotless, spacious, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The location is perfect — close to the beach, shops, and great cafes. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. The pool and facilities were also excellent and very well maintained. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!”

“One of the best and most relaxing stays in Australia! The open bathtub in the living/bedroom was a highlight. Everything matched the pictures perfectly. The bed was super comfy, and it was very quiet with great curtains. Plus, the pool and chilling area were lovely. Private underground parking 2.1 , high enough for our rooftop tent.”

“Stayed here for a family wedding. Fabulous public areas and onsite restaurant really good, we stayed with a group and lots of places to socialise. For the price, I would have hoped for at least one room clean, we stayed 4 nights. I know it's a serviced apartment but I am still always surprised by the lack of service, a quick tidy and rubbish removal would be good mid stay. No complaints about the room either, one bedroom family apartment. It was perfect.”
