I wouldn’t recommend staying here again. The photos used on booking sites and the resorts own website are misleading and false. Descriptions such as “refurbished/renovated” were used however the apartments we experienced & viewed were in original condition. No air conditioning in the bedrooms. A severe lack of natural light meant that the curtains were covered in mould and bathrooms showed signs of black mould. Beds were old and less than comfortable. Bedding was basic and no doonas were provided, just starched white sheets with old, stained blankets. Kitchen utensils were less than adequate, no tongs for bbq, no vegetable peeler or potato masher, broken cutlery, one very small frypan which broke - handle fell off. Toiletries were basic and almost unusable. Staff weren’t helpful. Don’t bother putting requests in or even booking months in advance as requests aren’t taken into consideration until 24hrs before arrival, at which point they probably won’t be able to accomodate. Lucky my special needs child wasn’t wheelchair confined and able to use stairs as we requested a ground floor apartment but were met with - you have to call the resort and book directly over the phone with an additional cost to guarantee a ground floor apartment. Apparently 7 months of holding our funds wasn’t good enough.

Great resort for families lots to keep them busy. We stayed in 3 bedroom town house which does need a renovating. The couches was the most uncomfortable piece of furniture to sit on, extremely hard vinyl with no cushioning, shelves were broken/mussing from fridge which limited space. 3 hangers to robes, no drawers. Need door mats front and back.

The staff were very friendly and polite. The policies of the resort are ridiculous - have never stayed somewhere that you get 1 towel a 1 roll of toilet paper for a weeks stay. Need more? No worries we can add that charge to your room. Good having bbq and pools on-site. Bed was the worst mattress we have ever slept on - could feel all the springs - felt like a really old or really used mattress.

Fantastic resort for families with young or older children. The staff were top notch, we were able to check in a little bit early and were given a grocery bag with eggs, bread, milk and breakfast cereals for the following morning plus activity packs for the kids, free drinks vouchers and kids club vouchers. Such a bonus that we didn’t expect. We made use of the pool areas and splash zone. The kids loved the slides and could spend all day on them. The Deck Restaurant did the best pizzas and chips! We had a few meals there. Our room was beautiful with modern furnishings and a deck on the mid level, over looking the tennis court. There are plenty of BBQ areas and we used this for our dinner one night. Someone came around every morning to clean the BBQs and we saw the same with the pools. Very well maintained grounds. Pool was open until 9pm so we were pleased we could have late swims. Thanks Turtle Beach Resort for a fabulous holiday

We stayed at Turtle Beach Resort from the 3rd September - 12th September. The rooms were very outdated and not clean, lots of bugs and cockroaches. Staff were friendly at the actual resort but the booking management team are terrible - absolute mess around and charged us for leaving towels in the bathroom (the towels the hotel provided) and for overfilling the bin. It’s a bit of a pain to get into surfers paradise as you need to get the bus then the tram - they are extending the tram line and say it will be done by 2026 but still, for now it’s a bit tricky. Plenty of pools. There are also only stairs up the apartments so limited access for disabilities and those with prams. Getting between each side of the resort would be hard too for disabled as little ramp access. Disappointed as it is so expensive!
