Best Hotels in Sunrise Beach

I'm so glad I chose Chez Noosa for my 5 night stay. The location was perfect for walking in Noosa National Park, and to Noosa Junction, Hasting St and Sunshine Beach. The apartment was clean and comfortable with everything I needed, in a peaceful setting. The bonus was the friendly and helpful Vicki! Nothing was too much trouble - a couple of very minor things in the apartment were addressed quickly, I could leave my hire bike in a secure spot, and she was a delight to speak with! Would highly recommend this accommodation and would stay again for sure! Thank you for a lovely stay.

What an amazing hostel. We had a double room with shared bathroom and it was lovely. Really cosy and everything very clean. Love that your key is on your phone and you get messages telling you about stuff going on at the hostel.

We arrived before reception closed (as advertised) but unfortunately had closed early due to Covid. Have the on-site manager a call who directed us to a key safe where we got our key and all of the information we need. Our room was modern, lovely, quiet and overlooked the lake. Was very relaxing watching the container ships in the distance out to sea & the stingrays, fish & swans that make the lake their home. It was clean, tidy and well equipped. Bed was comfortable. Signs were placed in 2nd bathroom and 2nd bedroom due to Covid. We didn’t need to use them. Unfortunately we couldn’t get the wifi to work, but this didn’t bother us. We were able to catch an Uber easily to/from Sunshine Coast stadium to watch the football (or an easy 45 min walk according to google). Sunshine Coast hospital was across the road. Cafes within walking distance, Shopping centre close by, as well as restaurants and eateries. Night quarter precinct next door to shopping centre, but we didn’t go. Short drive to the beach. Will stay here again if staying on the Sunshine Coast

The receptionist Nicky booked us in at the hotel, she was friendly and helpful providing maps and local advice. Our room was on the first floor with a balcony overlooking a building site... Perhaps should not have been charged extra for this privilege as we never used it! The room was clean, tidy and functional. Beds were firm, but there should have been a better pillow selection as ours were all flat as pancakes. Not sure about the glass shower room with duel purpose door. Can't leave the night light on as it illuminated the bedroom. Car parking at $20 a day was expensive as we stayed 5 days should have been discounted. Breakfast options were good with gluten free options available toostaff always happy to help. The hotel is within walking distance from cotton tree beach area. There are laundry facilities on top floor. The blue lighting edge to the building made it easy to find. Al's top tips Don't pay extra for a room with a balcony it over looks a building site, and it's not worth it. Take your own pillows as their are flat as pancakes. Parking at $20 a day is excessive and you can park in neighbouring streets after 6pm. Whilst in the area visit Maleny Botanical Gardens and Bird World and Australia ZooWe had a great day at both places, and for some fantastic views visit Montville you won't regret it.

Disapointed that on arrival, we were given a piece of paper, (which we did not read until day 2), advising that the room would not be serviced daily, (by that time I had put the towels on the floor to be changed) only if you stayed for over a week then your room would be serviced after day 3 or 4, you can ask for clean towels but at a charge. Also you must remove rubbish and put it in the garbage room shute on leaving, otherwise your credit card would be charged. I have never experienced this in any hotel/motel, even 2-3 stars, resort any where else in the world. We stayed 4 days, on day 3 my husband asked for more toilet paper and clean towels, husband asked why our room had not been serviced, we were told, it was a studio appartment, reception was quite flippant, but agreed to the request, although did not replace either, had to go ask a second time, told we did not have to pay for the clean towels.

What can I say, this place was an absolute gem to stay at and is truly unbeatable for the price and location! I had initially booked this place because of how well reviewed it was, and I can now (happily!) add my own to the list: it was truly a top tier experience. From the warmth and friendliness of Kate and Geoff who helped me get my bearings/settled in upon arrival, to the immaculate and spacious accommodations of the unit itself, it felt like the right choice from the moment I got in. The little touches of a lightly fragrant oil diffuser, chill music playing, and much welcome AC upon opening the door made an incredible first impression - and the unit had everything you could need for preparing your own meals/coffee/tea etc. Definitely had that WOW factor that is so hard to come by these days. In fact, I liked this place so much I stayed on an extra day (with special thanks to Kate for arranging that!) All in all, this place exceeded expectations in every way, and I look forward to returning in here the next chance I get!

Upon checking in, the foyer and reception area smells like cigarettes. One thing I can compliment this hotel on are the staff at check in who were very friendly and helpful. The room itself is very dissapointing. The carpet is dirty, the air con is only in the living room which just simply does not reach the bedroom. The fan in the bedroom creaks. The bed is so old you can feel the springs and it is almost like a trampoline. You would almost consider sleeping on the couch. The toilet is at the end of the hallway in the bedroom with NO DOOR. The shower head is so clogged the water kind of sprays everywhere except on you. The soaps and supplied shampoos, etc are fine and there are enough towels and linens. The room is however, sad and dated and simply depressing. The curtains are filthy and have holes in them. From 5am a dog, presumably somewhere in the complex, was barking non stop till 7:30am. It was loud and noisy, hot and humid. I felt really uncomfortable in this hotel. People live here, and you almost feel like an intruder and they watch you and look at you like you are a criminal on their property….! It’s an unusual, gloomy place and I would not stay here again.

Parking was difficult at Noosa Beach, so I left my car in the hotel parking lot and took an Uber! The location is good because it's not far! However, it is a bit disappointing that I had to pay a rather high price to stay at the hotel during the peak season.

I stayed at South Pacific Resort for a training conference for the month of February 2023 . It was a great place to experience both the conference facility and my apartment. I chose a standard one bedroom apartment as I was travelling solo. It was super spacious and lovely. Really well equipped for self catering with a kitchen that had everything you needed to cook and stay for such an extended time. The staff are so friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and their service was excellent . They have a shuttle bus that runs in to Noosa several times a day although I only used it a couple of times as I was in the conference. It be very handy if you had more free time. There is an Aldi supermarket 300 metres away and Noosa Farmers Organic Markets are literally next door every Sunday morning which are unbelievably good! The gardens and pool areas are just beautiful! 3 pools and stunning tropical gardens that make you feel like you are in Hawaii! My tip would be if you don’t have a car get to a news agency or the visitors centre in Noosa Heads underneath the surf club to purchase a bus pass as they are very reliable and I used them on numerous occasions throughout the month.The Gympie Terrace river shopping and restaurant precinct is approximately 15 minute flat walk away . Great coffee at Bakers pantry shop 300 metres away . The Thai restaurant in the grounds serves really delicious food and have a lunch special 7 days a week which I enjoyed on a few occasions. I can’t recommend South Pacific Resort Noosa enough and can’t wait to return !

Great stay at Windward Apartments. Directly across the road from the beach with interrupted (but still great) views of the ocean. You can park the car and walk every where. Unit was comfortable and clean (but a little dated). On-site managers were friendly and helpful. Games area for kids/ families, with entertainment packs for kids- great touch!
