    There was nothing to not like. It was a prefect home away from home. Modern, spacious and clean.

    I loved the location, it was central to everything. Right amongst the restaurants, close to the supermarket and beach. The apartment was lovely, very spacious and clean. Staff were nice and helpful.

    Ideal position in Broadbeach. Building is amazing clean and tidy

    I’ve stay 4 times now it always very clean even with level 4 out of action it’s still good value. It’s going to be amazing when works are completed.

    decore of the unit was very out dated but still comfortable and the view was priceless

    The wave resort was great, great location, great views, great staff. Unfortunately due to pool renovations everyone was packed into a tiny pool and spa on the top level and not their fault but the construction work next door meant we had a crane obstructing our view of the ocean

    We asked for additional bath mat towel as my kids had wet it during their bath. The reception acknowledged but no follow up action was taken to bring us new bath mat towel.

    The location was perfect and suitable for family. Apart from the ongoing constructions, the view is great. Rooms are clean and tidy. They have allocated parking space for each car to the room number, hence, you don't have to look for a space each time you are back.

    The construction noise from building site next door started from about 6am everyday other than Sunday and it was loud. This was communicated by The Wave and we understand that it’s totally out of their control but didn’t realise it would be so early. We had a stunning sea view apartment so maybe a city view on the other side of the building the noise wouldn’t be so bad.

    Excellent location, few minute walk to the beach, easy parking, spacious apartment for our family of four. Friendly helpful staff. We’d stayed here back in 2018 and did not regret returning. Will look forward to returning again and checking out the pool improvements.

    A brilliant place whose views of the ocean are about to be built out.

    • Three-Bedroom Apartment - Sub Penthouse
    • Stayed 6 nights

    Unfortunately, two towers (40 and 58 storey) are being built between the 34 storey Wave Apartments and the ocean. This will block the wonderful views and therefore we will not be staying at Wave again. It's crazy that this has been allowed to replace a smaller building. During our stay, this building was going on next door commencing at 6.30am including Saturday but Wave let us know that this would be occurring and wasn't a problem for us. The pool on the 4th floor (the largest pool) was being renovated and therefore not in use.

    We stay at Wave Apartments every year. They have great serviced apartments with everything you need including a corkscrew! The location is fantastic, right near some excellent restaurants which are very easy walking distance. Parking is convenient underneath the building and the place feels secure with keycard access to the building, lift and rooms. We treated ourselves with the three-bedroom sub penthouse this year and they were happy to switch one of the twin rooms to a king for the MIL for a small fee.

    Majority of the facilities were closed. Understandably for renovations, though would have been nice to know prior to booking as they were a key factor in booking.

    The carpark that we were allocated was simply diabolical. It has a raised storage unit and would only be suitable for a small car. If we stay again, we'll be requesting a different room and/or carpark as this was just awful for us.

    The check in was easy. Your staff were friendly. The room was clean. Location was fabulous - SO central and walking distance to everything. Great value for money - thank you - we'll definitely stay again
