Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
It was located in the heart of Shoal Bay. We stayed in a 1 bedroom waterfront apartment. It was clean but the kitchen was slightly dated but clean . They had excellent customer service becaue we had 2 maintenance issues which turned out not to be. But maintenance was up within a few minutes.
My only slightly negative comments were around the check-in. There were 2 separate desks that we interacted with. One seemed to be about whether we were Wyndham Club members, which is like a time share. She asked if we were interested in hearing about it and would get a $100 just for attending. Any activities we wanted to do such as SUP, kayaking, etc. we had to me Wyndham Club members. No high pressure tactics; just didn't expect it. Then we were referred to the 2nd desk who had all our details. No problems. It was just confusing.
Remodelling is happening next door which makes some noise during the day. Not sure how long this is going to occur so if you're thinking of staying there, you might ask about this isse when you make your reservation.
I would recommend staying there.
Staff at reception were very friendly and helpful
I spilt some nail polish on the floor at 3:15 approximately on Monday and I immediately reported it to reception. No one came before I left for an appointment at 4:10pm that day. Next morning I rang reception as the iron wasn’t working at around 7:45am and asked for a working iron and again reported about the nail polish on the floor. Around 9am I again rang reception regarding the iron as well as the nail polish that I had spilt on the floor on Monday!
Eventually I had to get dressed - without being able to iron my outfit as no one had bought the iron to my room. As well they had not come to check out the nail polish spill !
When I checked out, I returned my “keys” to reception and mentioned that no replacement iron was delivered to my room and no one had been to look at the nail polish spill. I was given an apology regarding the iron and informed someone had been to the room and tried to remove the nail polish, without success, as the polish was dry by that time. The receptionist also told me that Romada had a carpet cleaner and would use that and there would be no additional costs
It’s disappointing that I had to call reception numerous occasions regarding thes issues
Always a pleasure to stay at the property. Great location overlooking the bay. Lots of excellent food options around and friendly people. Property is clean and well maintained and the pools are perfect for the family to have out.
Would have been better had there been no smokers on their balconies. We could not enjoy the great view from our balcony that we paid extra for because of most of the rooms next to us had smokers and were smoking on their balconies. We were never told this was permissible.
Was trying to access Netflix on tv
The 2 young girls at reception were totally helpful
From instructions had to login to my google account and then access Netflix
If hadn’t been told what to do wouldn’t be able to access through “streaming” instructions and wifi
Have stayed in other places and they have given me a google streamer to access
But the girls so helpful
In every way not just that
Room was very clean and tidy
All in all great
👍
