After searching the net for a place to stay in Noosa this place caught our eye. It was a five minute walk to the Noosa International Food and Wine Festival, and to top it off it had free wifi.
Check-in is 2pm and we arrived about 11.30am. The managers were very accommodating and were able to give us access to our room which was a deluxe two-bedroom apartment featuring a fully equipped kitchen (only the kettle was used for tea and fridge for milk). A piece of coded paper was given to us for each of our wireless devices (android phone, iPhone, iPad etc).
There were numerous flights of stairs which weren't a problem for us, however, it would not suit an elderly person or one with a disability. They probably have street level accommodation in this instance but I didn't ask.
As we were staying just 3 nights there is no mid-stay housekeeping and you have to be there for more than 7 nights if you want that. I did miss not having my bed made, pillow fluffed and cover folded down.
Check out is 10am and as we were spending the final day in Noosa and needed the carpark for my sister who lives locally we asked management who kindly allowed us to keep the park for that day. Our suitcases were placed in secure storage and I was given the key to access, and told to leave the key in their safe deposit box as the office would be closed.
The location to the festival was handy and to the many shops along Hastings Street and of course the beach (Main Beach).
Saks on Hastings was good clean accommodation and perhaps is starting to look a little tired. The mattresses sank a bit and need replacing. Other than that it was a perfect place to stay and management were really nice. read more
