I had a mixed experience at Harbour Side Resort during my stay. While the location was convenient and the room was clean, I encountered several issues that affected my comfort, including noise disturbances and problems with my initial room. The amenities were basic but acceptable for the price, though some updates are clearly needed.

The room I first received wasn't cleaned and still had rubbish from previous guests, which was quite shocking. After waiting for a replacement room, I did get upgraded, but overall, the rooms felt outdated and in need of improvement. Some details like the broken blinds really stood out.

The reception staff seemed unaware of the issues I faced and did take some time to help me out. While they were polite, the delays and lack of communication about room readiness were disappointing.

The facilities were pretty basic, and while there was a laundry option available, the overall maintenance could definitely be improved. The pool and spa areas looked nice, but I didn't get the chance to use them.

I had a comfortable stay at Harbour Side Resort. The location was great, just across from the water, and the room was tidy for the most part. However, it did feel a bit outdated, and I noticed some areas needed a little more attention, especially in terms of cleanliness. Overall, it provided good value for money.

The pool and spa area were impressive, and having laundry facilities on-site was a definite plus. However, the room did lack some essential amenities like extra toilet paper and garbage bags.

My stay at Harbour Side Resort was a bit of a mixed bag. While I loved the location—it was close to the beach and the Australian Fair—the room left a lot to be desired. The cleanliness was questionable, with noticeable wear and tear around the place, and issues like a dirty sofa and mould in the bathroom were hard to overlook. On the plus side, the staff were friendly and the check-in process was smooth.

I can't complain about the location at all—being so close to the beach and shops was super convenient. Plus, the proximity to Broadwaters Parklands made it a great spot for some leisurely walks.

I enjoyed dining at a local café near the resort, which had lovely views and decent prices. It was a chill place to grab a bite, though I wished there were more dining options nearby.
Facilities

The facilities were basic. The laundry was decent, but I found myself wishing for a little more overall upkeep and maintenance. The spa was also inaccessible during my visit, which was a bummer.

I had a mixed experience at Harbour Side Resort. The location was excellent, close to shops and the hospital, which was super convenient for me. However, I encountered several issues like a lack of hot water and noise from neighboring units, which were quite disappointing. Overall, I appreciated the helpful staff but felt the hotel could use some renovations.
