King size beds in all rooms, plush mattress toppers creating ultimate comfort, ducted aircon which is a great addition to have to make the whole family comfortable, perfect view and spacious room all for a very affordable price! Only thing which was annoying was the hot water taking forever to come through the shower then after 30seconds to a minute it would turn cold again.

Aquarius Kawana position on the lake with good walk path around the lake. 30 minute drive took you along the golden beaches of the Sunshine coast. A good sense of direction is needed as the routes out of Kawana Waters can be confusing.

One night stay
One night stay, studio was compact but everything you need. Directions from staff were very good but there pre checkin when arriving after hours is a bit of a pain. Found keys & letter for gaining access from garage but went out for dinner & had no idea on how to gain access to the front door so had to go via the garage. Other than that great location, clean & tidy.

Very nice place near the hospital.
We were visiting a friend who worked at the nearby hospital and this is an Ideal place to stay. We arrived by car and weren't fully aware of the parking arrangements but there is a dedicated spot in the secure underground parking lot. The rooms were clean and spotless, comfortable bed good air conditioning set at 18 Deg min, nice bathroom and well equipped kitchen and laundry space. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone visiting the area around the hospital.
View from the kitchen looking towards the lake.
Balcony with 4 chairs.

Unfortunately our room was not really what we expected. There was only one chair to sit on so you had to sit on the bed. There was hardly any fresh air. Only 2 long windows that would only open about 10cm. The bed was extremely uncomfortable and there was hardly ever anyone on reception. Also the tea and coffee provided were probably the worst I have ever tasted. On a positive the building was very clean. It would be OK for someone for an overnight stay, perhaps visiting the hospital or on business.

Hi Melinda, our studio apartments are our cheapest option, and they work quite well for overnight stays and business visits. We also have one-bedroom apartments with fully equipped kitchens, living rooms and large balconies with lake views, and clearly one of those would have been a better fit for your stay. Warm Regards.
