10 Jun 2025My third time to visit sunny coast. Third time to stay at this hotel. Everything is so good. Had a free bottle of wine. The outdoor pool is amazing. Room is so spacious and staff so friendly. On the last day my flight is in the afternoon. I still got the pass to enjoy the pool after I checked out. I will come back, again!

29 May 2025Staff and Management were excellent. Local dining and entertainment was excellent. Condition of room was very dated and carpet was lifting in places. There was mould around the A/ Con vents and dust on top of fixtures. Cutlery was not clean and had to be washed before using.

05 May 2025I had asked for a high floor as i am a light sleeper, we arrived late friday night, checkin was easy went to tom to find we were on the bottom floor, room was outdated, bed was so hard we both woke with sore backs, all through the night we could hear the peole above us, even when they used the bathroom, i went to speak to the reception who then went to speak to the manager, we were told we would have to pay extra to upgrade which we did as couldn't spend another 3 nights on that bed, the next room was better.
Excellent
30 Apr 2025The reception area was excellent and very helpful. The staff you did happen to meet were all friendly and helpful. The room itself had a pokie odd bedroom with a cupboard that had limited hanging space as drawers in the ways. There were good facilities as in kitchen/laundry/shower. The shower was off putting with the glass wall into the bedroom. Not sexy at this age. The WC smelt of urine and the timber slated blinds on the sliding door needed a good dusting especially on the back side. The room in itself looked liked it was just left over space and had limited view to the ocean but overlooked the the very noisy intersection of Lanning Street and the Esplanade. The motor bikes really revved in the nighttime to make it up the hill.

27 Apr 2025We stayed for 7 days in 2 bedroom apartment. Fantastic master bedroom, small 2nd room (for 2 teenagers). 2 bathrooms that were lovely and decent sized. Great balcony. Great location near beach and headland. Not too far to reach the flags for swimming. Great options for food. Quiet. Location. Very close to Coles. Only annoying thing is that they don’t service at all in 7 days and don’t leave you enough toilet paper, dishwashing detergent, dishwashing tablets and washing detergent to keep towels washed. Had to buy and waste supplies as we were flying home. Would stay again

24 Apr 2025This is our second stay at Mantra Mooloolaba but this time we were slightly disappointed. I thought I had booked the same type of room as last time (ocean superior)for the start of our stay upgrading to 3 bed after 4 days. but apparently I had not booked the superior room. The difference between ocean view and ocean view superior is no fixed cook top in kitchen a tiny fridge and no dishwasher. The manager was amazing and did end up shifting us to the bigger room we had booked earlier. This was not our major concern though what annoyed us was that the indoor pool was out of action for a week of our stay and this was one of the main reason we had booked mantra. We has no notification of this. The website stated there was renovations to the front building but no mention of the pool. To top it off the spa pool also broke down and was not heating and it rained most of the time so a warm spa or swim in indoor pool would have been lovely. Management didn’t even offer to reduce the charge for the one night upgrade, for the inconvenience of the pool being out of action. Although this annoyed us it would not stop me staying again as this hotel is very central and the option of the indoor and outdoor pool are great (when working),
Exceptional
20 Apr 2025Great location - everything walkable & easy. Plenty to see and do .. beaches, dining, tourist trips, river cruises, waterworld, supermarkets, etc. Safe & fun for all ages. Parking area a little hard to find and staff probably need to make this a bit clearer and use of hotel cards.
Excellent
18 Apr 2025Perfect location, with easy access to the beach, shops, Coles and only a short walk from the aquarium. There is no need to move your car once you have parked it securely in the underground car park. The indoor pool was well used. The outdoor pool could benefit from solar heating. It can get a bit noisy down the main drag with car enthusiasts out to impress. We will be back as this is the perfect location to holiday.

02 Apr 2025Property location was great (above supermarket and across the road from beach and park) and the apartment was clean and tidy. Was disappointed that the spa was broken and there was no communication before our stay that the indoor pool would be out of action for a period of time. We had a young child and was a little surprised that the huge tv wasn’t anchored to the wall, which was a bit of a hazard. Other than the above we were happy with our stay and would be back again. Thank you

Poor
23 Feb 2025Staff were good, unfortunately we paid the extra and booked the sea view room with balcony, we were allocated a room on level 5. We found the traffic and construction noise so loud we didn't really want to use it. That combined with the extremely dated rooms which appear to be last renovated in the 90's with a rattling air conditioning unit made the hotel a pretty significant disappointment. On the other end the hotel is in a great location with everything you need within a walkable distance and free parking at the hotel.

Excellent location in central Mooloolaba , nice and clean with great ocean views from the Seaview side, unfortunately the property is located on a corner near a set of lights at the bottom of a hill so there can be quite a bit of loud traffic noise at times. Also our apartment and others we know about in the building have the shower located in the middle of the Spa Bath which can be quite hard to step over for people with mobility difficulties.

24 Dec 2024The room was really cold with the air con on and you couldn’t adjust the temperature. There was poor lighting, in the bathroom and bedroom, it was too soft. The verandahs are tiny as well. The position of the resort is great, close to all the shops, restaurants and very close to the beach. The western side of the building is on Venning Street which is very busy and noisy. I’d give this place a 4 star rating.

20 Oct 2024The property was in a great location and had a really amazing sea view. The room itself was large and had good facilities, but the bathroom was quite dated in terms of the style. There was a smell of cleaning fluid or damp when we arrived but that wore off during the stay. It was however clean and the hotel had a couple of pools to choose from, if the beach wasn’t for you (although the surf on the beach was pretty strong but good fun). Overall a good hotel in a convenient location.

05 Sep 2024Overall good. The horrible part was the check in process. They set me up in a high floor and incredible view but did not tell anyone nor importantly me about the renovations. Right above me they were drilling tile. Yes immediately above my floor. I understand it needs to get done and the front office manager was blaming the ownership but it is still your responsibility to inform the in coming guests, where the noise is happening, not to tell the guests to take a walk on the beach for three hours until they finish especially;;y when I am staying in excess of 10 plus days, and be responsible in getting back with the guests that you so rudely set up in a room with a ton of noise on purpose too. Your management team needs to learn the responsibility of basic communication. Aside from this poor and horrible episode the hotel is great - clean room, friendly staff, incredible and walkable location, supermarket next door to the hotel, washer/dryer, dishwasher, and stove. Stop blaming ownership and should be proud that they are renovating the hotel so you may be successful in the future. Be responsible and pro[early communicate with the guests. You will be surprised how much more appreciative they will be.

02 Sep 2024We liked that everything was close. I didn’t like that I called and asked for a room with a spa and when we got there, there was no spa or even an ensuite. The bathroom was at the front and bedroom at the back and there was a portacot and extra towels a sheets meaning the people who were assigned this room got ours because they obviously complained about not having a bath. I suppose it’s first in best dressed.

27 Aug 2024Staff were friendly. Property is showing its age. Eg TV was old and small. Tiles were chipped in places.

Safe and has great staff who went out of their way. Would recommend.

27 Aug 2024Our ocean view room was on the 2nd floor where u could hardly see anything. If you stay here definatly ask them about what floor you are staying on. The shower had basically no water pressure which was a bit frustrating. Also the room layout was a bit wierd with the main bedroom immediately inside the front door. You could hear everything happening in guests rooms walking down the hallway
Poor
09 Aug 2024The games room was a disgrace. Wrong table tennis balls. Shocking bats. Disgraceful to charge to play on sub-standard equipment. TV service also a disgrace. After paying a high price to stay, we were offended at the "free" Wi-Fi which turned out not to be free. TV streaming was also charged, including YouTube. What a joke. Apartment was clean, but spartan.
