Mari Court Resort

It is a good, cheap apartment.

Great place, great garden, nicely situated between Surfers and Broadbeach, near the Jewel which is very handy, near public transport. Close to patrolled beach. Near a cafe. Unit well maintained and clean. Pool heated. Beautiful garden.

Unfortunately this accommodation has gone downhill very quickly. We have stayed here previously and this time left our accomodation after one night, since we arrived late and couldn’t find a substitute. I have never walked away from accommodation before, but this was well below standard and somewhat dangerous. We arrived to find that we could not lock the door on the balcony or screen door. The property could not be secured and we asked that something could be done regarding this for our safety. Management arrived to lock us in and explained that a locksmith would come tomorrow. I explained that this wasn’t the only issue, with lights not working in the hallway, light switches not working in the ensuite, not enough seats for everyone, no pictures on the wall, a very dodgy ironing board, holes in doors, broken tiles, paint peeling, light switches broken, a double bed instead of the advertised queen bed in the main bedroom, dusty and dirty bedside lights and skirting, leftover decorations from New Years behind and under the TV Unit, sticky tape on the walls, Stains in carpets, curtains out of eyelets, really noisy fans etc. it looked like Schoolies had just happened and we were the next guests - only it was 3 months later! We stayed last year and it was lovely, hence why we rebooked. Reception explained that they were fully booked for the next few nights and that they would assist in the morning. Unfortunately nothing else in the complex was available and we left with a refund. Events were happening on the Gold Coast when we went, so we ended up booking very expensive accommodation instead. It was then disappointing to then have to pay triple for accommodation (only one other place on the coast we could secure), however we do understand that each unit in the complex at Mari Court Resort is individually owned and this probably needs better inspection after each visit. Accommodations should not be booked out without being at a standard that is appropriate and safe for the customer. We are grateful for management taking care of reimbursement, but it is buyer beware, sadly.

Very good property great staff very helpful great location good pool ,very relaxed for families I’ll come back next trip for sure thanks

Very dated, broken utensils and very rusty kitchen. Unit needs a though clean of all kitchen items in draw. Good location with beach and tram stop close by.

Please… if you have a baby and are needing to use their infant cots DONT!!!! They are so unsafe! The mattress we were given didn’t fit the portacot! Our 7 month old rolled down the side of the mattress and got stuck! A huge suffocation risk! When I asked for a mattress that was actually safe and one that fitted the cot I was told.. that, that was all they used! It wasn’t a mattress it was a hard squab like thing that didn’t not fit the cot! I said surely this cannot be Australian safety standards! And was told it absolutely was! We were lucky we brought our baby camera and found him before he suffocated… think they would have had a different response had they had an infant death on their hands!!! Absolutely terrible!!!!!

The property was very clean; but at this price point, small maintenance issues really stand out. Items such as paint peeling, wall cracks, and non functioning lights make the property look tired and unloved.

It was very clean and quiet. Staff were helpful and friendly.

The place is very run down, dirty, dark. Doors to balcony didn't lock due to building moving. Sheet were clean, but blankets had dried food marks. They need washing. The springs in the bed keep jabbing me in different places every time i rolled over. Drains in the bathroom blocked. The seal around the bath was gone, so water will be leaking under the bath. Dishers dirty enough to stick together, gross. We will never stay there again.
