Top 5-Star Hotels in Caloundra

Great beach facing apartment. Well equipped kitchen which included an oven, microwave, cook top, dishwasher and frig. All 3 bedrooms could be converted to a king bed. Daily light service where they topped up supplies and made beds and changed towels. Free muffins and tea/perc coffee in bar area each morning. Jacuzzi was lovely although it could be overtaken by small children/toddlers at times.

We stayed in a budget one bedroom apartment on the second level with a balcony that faced the 11 level resort across the road. It received the sun in the morning. It was a spacious apartment however the bathroom was relatively small. Bed was comfortable and the washing machine and drier worked well. The pool was great. We would have rated the unit higher however when we advised reception that the dish washer didn’t work and looked as if it had a fault, they advised that they would let the unit owner know. It was obvious that the dish washer had been faulty for a while. Surely if a unit is advertised with a dish washer, the managers have a responsibility to ensure it is operational.

Just to make it clear, prior to my stay I’d hade two calls from the property to say that the pool would be closed for building works. That wasn’t a problem as my trip was for business What I wasn’t warned about was getting to my room. Access to the room on the ‘boardwalk’ was via two basement car parks – down a lift thru a car park, up a lift, thru another car park, then up another lift (truly). Fortunately Arrived at 5.50pm to find reception closed – information said open until 6pm. Next day I was locked out of my room as I hadn’t provided my details. Room was well equipped and comfortable but had more instructions than you’d get at an AirBnB run by an obsessive owner. It also listed that Wi-Fi had to be paid for – although I did later find information on access.

Centrally located on the beach, in the town centre, view of the desert and mountains! How unique! Easily walk to restaurants in the evening and shopping during the day. Staff was very nice and accommodated our camper for parking as it was too high to go in the underground parking, Very comfortable room, king bed, separate bedroom and laundry facilities. Great stay,

I stayed at the Golden Beach motor inn with my elderly father while visiting the area. I was met at reception by the very friendly hostess Desleigh who explained details of the accommodations and the area and was very helpful. Our room was spotlessly clean. It was upstairs and had a double bed and a single bed. There was a fridge, tea and coffee provisions and a tv. The bathroom was modern and equipped with soap and shampoo. The room was air conditioned. There is a swimming pool and undercover parking. Then motel was fully booked the night we stayed, but it was quiet and we slept really well. Its a short walk to downtown Caloundra, where there are lots of restaurants. There is an Aldi and a pub a very short distance away, and a Woolworths and bottle shop slightly further (but still walking distance). This is a basic motel, not a 5 star resort, but if you set you expectations accordingly we found it a great place to stay. I recommend it and really enjoyed staying there.

Each accommodation at La Promenade is thoughtfully created and adorned to provide visitors with a comfortable, home-like atmosphere. In select rooms, guests at the hotel can enjoy top-notch in-room entertainment with television and cable TV available for their convenience.Rest assured, in a few chosen rooms, the presence of a coffee or tea maker can be found. Understanding the significance of bathroom amenities in enhancing guest contentment, the hotel offers a hair dryer within certain chosen rooms.

Stayed for 7 nights with my sister. Walking distance to everything. McDonald's, KFC, Aldi, and chemist across the road, Dan Murphy and Woolworths next door. Golden beach 5 mins walk, centre of Caloundra and beach 10 mins walk. Room clean and tidy with outside table and chairs for 2 overlooking lovely pool which also has 2 covered picnic table and chair settings and a BBQ. Staff were lovely... especially housekeeping who were very helpful. Beds were comfortable, shower was amazing. Room was generally quiet apart from the occasional heavy footed guests in the room above us. Tavern was handy for meals, which were lovely (dinner there 3 nights) and a good price ( guests staying also get 10% off meals). Only downer was the WiFi, terrible in the room ( actually got better reception from the hotel while sitting at McDonald's over the road), and trying to watch Netflix after 10am was a waste of time as it just kept dropping out. Would definitely stay again.

I think it's a very convenient place to use it for work. Meals around the area are convenient. I was comfortable sleeping. Reasonable for the hotel grade.

The motel is quite clean and closed to everything.
