Balmoral 575

Angus was a wonderful host when he met us on arrival, and my queen-size bed gave me the best night's sleep I'd had in a long time. The house has incredible views from just about anywhere. From the infinity lap pool, you look out over a huge national park and the whole Sunshine Coast. On a clear day, I could even see the sand dunes on Moreton Island. I felt relaxed as soon as I arrived. It really is a magical spot, like a slice of heaven, and Balmoral575 went beyond what I expected.

The oversized balcony is a lovely place to sit and take in the ocean views, and the Bungalow was such a relaxing place to stay. Inside, the kitchen has enough room to cook a gourmet meal, and the bathroom comes with lovely amenities, including real soap. They'd thought of the small details too, with good breakfast provisions and coffee ready to make in the plunger. A superb stay.

We'd already been to Balmoral 575 twice and loved it, so we came back to try the new bungalow 217. It didn't disappoint at all, another amazing location, and now we're regulars. The hosts are so welcoming, the bungalow decor is exquisite, and the views are breathtaking. We'll be back!

The views aren't everything. I was disappointed because this place is very unfriendly for disabled guests. The table bench seats have no backs, and rugs created a trip hazard. My sister, who is on dialysis and uses a wheelie walker, took a serious fall. I like my country home better.
