Disliked: Amenities
Both the unit and property location were ok however we expected to have some kind of ocean view from our room given its beachfront location. We were told we didn’t request this in our booking and therefore nothing they could do. The wifi was terrible, kids had to hotspot when we were home and couple of days with no wifi due to maintenance. The beach water was murky, so with the local crocodile warnings we didn’t end up swimming at trinity beach. Then the day before our scheduled checkout at 10am, reception phoned to see what time we’d be leaving. Overall not the best experience 😕

5 star resort
Our stay at the Coral Sands Resort was amazing. Our superior room was comfortable and roomy for 4 guests and a baby. The pool was clean and the gardens well maintained and had access to the beach through a back gate. The view was beautiful of the pool and beach. The staff were very friendly and checked in before and on leaving the resort. Would recommend.

Didn't like the high step required to get in & out for older people. Shower screen is very narrow resulting in splash. Required to wait over an hour past check in to access apartment. Excellent pool. Plenty of space in apartment.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Location was good. Unit was listed as “ocean view”. I think this is misleading and partial ocean view or obstructed OV would be more accurate at best. The unit had an “old” odour and was in need of updating despite a recent paint job and new sofa. The quality of furniture was not that of a 4 star property as listed. Expedia also listed as a hotel- this is not a hotel but a self contained property. Smoking on the balconies was also not appealing. Local restaurants provided good Food. Pool area and grounds were well Maintained. Make sure you have pool towels unless you want to rent them!

Loved the location. Family friendly and nice atmosphere. I didn't like the beds at all,every movement can be felt through the springs and made for some bad nights sleep. Be sure to bring your own pool towels as they are not provided.

Broken dining chairs, unpainted walls, broken bathroom fixtures, saggy beds this hotel stay had it all. Unfortunately as each unit has individual owners it appears the resort has no standards and as a result our appartments looked like the last time it recieved any maintanence was some time ago.

Coral Sands is a nice resort in a great location, across the street from Trinity Beach. The resort has several apartments over 3 levels, with underground parking, but no elevator. We are seniors and getting our luggage up and down the stairs was a feat in itself. The property has beautiful gardens and a large pool - great for families. Communication with the resort could be improved. The resort emails that are sent to guests are mostly non-replyable,so this does not allow for two-way communication. That aside, the resort is well kept and only a few steps from the beach.

Fumes.
There were many positives: a large pool, free BBQ's, & a large 2BR unit which was well-supplied & fitted out. BUT They allow smoking on the balconies, which was an issue. Our unit was in the L-shaped bend, and was one of the few where a neighboring unit balcony not only gave view of our balcony but into the front of our unit. Wouldn't be an issue except the next-door resident (? permanent) was a chain-smoker (2-4 times per hour!), & the predominant SE winds & the laws of physics resulted in the smoke eddying & in fact concentrating into the SW corner & us being prisoners - unable to sit or air our towels/bathers/clothes on the balcony, nor open our doors. Even with the patio doors shut our room smelled of smoke, & the stairwell (having permanently semi-open wooden slats) smelled fiercely from the concentrated fumes. Smoking status is not a usual requirement to be disclosed on booking, but I would have to suggest that anyone wanting to stay here specifically ask to have a room away from the bend or NOT next to a room with a known smoker.
