Reviews for Pumicestone Blue Resort
Review 1:We did not like the couches/lounge as we found it uncomfortable. Some traffic noise from the street if doors to balcony open.
Review 2:Facilities and location
Review 3:Just a couple of small things, remote for bedroom TV had a ten cent piece taped to it so it could be used (?). Spa in pool not working.
Review 4:Good location, ocean views,clean,good size unit. Also thought the Nepalese restaurant on ground floor was amazing.
Review 5:Apartment felt older then I expected and a bit outdated wouldn't say it's 4 and half stars, not all lights where working and the tiles seemed a bit grubby and I found some of the dishes to be a bit dirty and would have been better if there was pay tv and the glass in the pool area could do with a good clean.
Review 6:The pool area and location
Review 7:some traffic noise from garbage trucks and hoons when balcony doors were open. Grandpa locking the car keys in the boot whilst packing up to leave
Review 8:almost everything. The staff were extremely helpful with everything, including finding a doctor for Grannies minor 'emergency" eleven outta ten.
Review 9:We were most unhappy to have to leave!!!!
Review 10:Great location, walking distance to lagoon type beach, restaurants. Excellent roof top pool and spa. Awesome views from balcony, rooms perfect for sharing with bedrooms spaced well apart to offer privacy.
Review 11:Some one else parking in my car spot
Review 12:Melinda(the lady at reception with glasses) was so lovely, she was such an amazing person to deal with. Her customer service was superb & was so lovely to me and my partner. I will definitely be returning because of her customer service.
Review 13:No remotes worked and we couldnt get in the spa fue to others using it.
Review 14:Very beautiful place. Amazing views and great location with all restaurants in walking distance.
Review 15:On a 3 night stay not enough coffee, tea, sugar etc or dish washing liquid had to buy more... Just need a once over on all the little things, batteries replaced, light globes not working and Ensuites toliet didn't work or get fixed during our stay...
Review 16:Main bed was super comfortable and plenty of room, great view and location
Review 17:very noisy at night, room has bifold doors to laundry that came off, door stops that were broken, carpet not clean around and behind sofa, soap dish fallen off shower, shower head would not stay in holder, needs a tidying up.
Review 18:pool was great
Review 19:We had issues with the dishwasher which maintenance fixed but still kept happening - at various times it just didn't work. Also we couldn't have the aircon/heater on at night as the Airconditioning box on the balcony near the kids room was unbearably noisy. Both kids were unable to sleep with it on - not sure how this would be in summer.
Review 20:The unit was great, a good home feeling. Just a couple of things to fix but will definitely book again. We had such a great time.
Review 21:Advertised ocean views but they did not honour and gave us water views so we could not get a view of the ocean but the river. Questioned them and they blamed booking.com for false advertising
Review 22:Good location. Easy check in and parking.
Review 23:Enjoyed the spa, but couldn't get out because of disabilities, no allowance for aged guests, had to struggle to edge then shuffle on backside to pool to get to edge then steps.
Review 24:The photos of hotel matched in reality, wonderful view, good self catering facilities
Review 25:The convenience of the position on Caloundras main street unfortunately came with considerable traffic noise.
Review 26:Beautiful views of Pumistone Passage and Glasshouse mountains. Fabulous rooftop swimming pool and spa.

Review 31:good position, comfortable bed, pretty good view, liked having the trolley to carry our luggage from the car to unit.
Review 32:pool was unusable the first 3 days of our holidays due to pool not being heated .
Review 33:The staff were friendly and helpful. Answered questions regarding the pool heating and kept us up to date on repairs.
Review 34:Were not provided with any sort of dishwashing powder even though the housekeeping rules state to wash the dishes. So just didn't use the dishes haha.
Review 35:Amazing accommodation. Rooftop pool and spa with a view of the glasshouse mountains, perfect at sunset!
Review 36:To be given 1/2a toilet roll for two people for two nights was extremely poor we have never experienced anything like this before
Review 37:Unit was very nice and clean
Review 38:Our car space was taken. We got out of lift and was hit with awful food smells. Then went to balcony, food smell was stronger. Even bed sheets did not have a clean smell. Over all a big disappointment.
Review 39:small number of foxtell stations - would have liked more for sports & bigger TV no free wifi not enough pillows for two each
Review 40:Plenty of balcony space and views. Location was great & corner unit was quiet Unit was clean & comfortable
Review 41:This place is right in town but really close to the beach too which means you can park the car and then walk everywhere to access pretty much everything that you need.
Review 42:The bed was hard n not big enough
Review 43:Just to relax Short walk to shops n beach Heaps of room View from our appartment 2 seperate bathrooms n pool was awsome
Review 44:Make sure you have enough toiletries & washing detergents for your stay because these dont get renewed once youve used the initial supply. Not a big issue really.
Review 45:Very comfortable unit, modern facilities including dishwasher, washing machine & drier. very clean, great ocean views & walking distance to beaches, restaurants & bars.
Review 46:nothing
Review 47:it is in a location where you are right there for everything. the pool is amazing and on the 12th floor even i with height problems went and swum in the pool just to say i did it. the apartments are lovely and have everything you need and Lyn in the office is a very lovely lady and very helpful. i would stay there again if we were to go back
Review 48:Fantastic location, short stroll from the cafe strip, spectacular views, well-appointed room. Would be great for families too and we're planning to come back!
Review 49:Paid extra for ocean view and we thought that would put us at front of apartment not set back like we were, to me we had the cheaper option partial Oceanview
Review 50:Friendly,clean and good value for money spent. Roof top pool amazing, apartment close to everything
Review 51:The perfect weekend away with stunning views of water & surrounds from lounge & balconies, great rooftop pool area, welcoming managers, beautiful breezes.
Review 52:One of the most geniune customer service that I have received in the hospitality industry. We were welcomed warmly by Lyn and Alan on arrival. They took the time and effort to Answer all of our enquiries about the area. Through their answers, it is evident that they have a broad knowledge on the attractions around both Caloundra and surrounding areas. I would strongly recommend this hotel to anyone who is visiting this area and will definitely return to this place in the future.
Review 53:The air condition unit located outside main bedroom is quite noisy and did not seem to work too well in the 2nd room (with queen bed). The wall key pad in that room was not working so may have something to do with it.
Review 54:Loved the pool area and the size of the apartment for adult children. In a very good location to everything.
Review 55:The apartment was much smaller than we expected and wish they provided free wi-fi. Everything else was excellent.
Review 56:Friendly staff, swimming pool, and comfy beds
Review 57:Nothing
Review 58:The Managers were great, & easy to talk to, the Berry & Bean café outside the complex was a great place to have a coffee & chat. Well Done to All.
Review 59:The smell in the lift and outside the room also the basement was terrible , seemed to be coming from the garbage shute and bin in the basement , Air conditioning unit located just outside second bedroom was was extremely noisy through the night , not enough shade at the pool .
Review 60:Overall stay was ok just some things could be improved to make stay more comfortable
Review 61:We were checking in after the office closed and we were not provided with any information regarding the process. Upon arrival we were required to phone the after hours number and we were greeted with a very disinterested frosty interest in our check.
Review 62:That it was in Caloundra
Review 63:Self contained, everything you need plus more, comfortable and clean. Handy location. Beautiful beaches and views of sea and the hinterland. Perfect
Review 64:The Patio was filthy ,had to call the manager to clean it. Stove was greasy and dirty particularly the oven. Family toilet seat was broken. Industrial rubbish bins kept near basement lifts which is quite horrible in summer. Also hot air from AC unit blew directly onto patio table and chairs making it very uncomfortable
Review 65:The rooftop BBQ area was great for families.The pool area was reasonable as well
Review 66:If I have to, all I would say was the bed was a little soft, but each to their own.
Review 67:Loved the prime location. Kids loved the pool on the roof (and I didn't mind it either).
Review 68:our trip was made easy from the outset. despite a late arrival time and early starts and late finishes to each day Lyn made sure we were able to access our suite and were provided with everything we asked for. the resort is very close to the beach and within easy driving of all the local tourist spots - both peaceful or manic whichever we preferred! A great place to stay - nice rooftop pool too.
Review 69:I didn't like the noisiness of the traffic, which you could hear constantly and outside our room was the refuse shute,which you could actually smell when you exited the lift.And also the lift needed a good vaccuum. e
Review 70:The location of the resort was very central.
Review 71:The Managers of the Resort were wxtremely friendly and very helpful. We enjoyed our stay. Great spot for eating out, everything was in walking distance.
Review 72:Far too many rules.. I felt like a naughty school child as soon as I arrived with the massive list of "you must not do this.. And you must not do that" kind of ruined the welcome. could have been worded a bit softer.
Review 73:Nice view, friendly staff
Review 74:I liked the view. The unit had all that I needed for a very comfortable stay. Street Markets were interesting to visit - Friday for food and Sunday in main streets,
Review 75:All was great
Review 76:The apartment had everything we needed and the location was great with water views. There was nothing we could want to improve our experience.
Review 77:TV in master bedroom was poor qaulity with the sound very hard to hear. Cheap quality TV. Internal cleanliness of the unit was average was 2nd bathroom obviously not done well enough. Also clothes left in dryer.
Review 78:Outlook was stunning across the passage. Lovely hosts.
Review 79:Nothing - we will be back!!!
Review 80:The staff were fantastic and so friendly from the moment we walked through the door. Our apartment was spacious, comfortable and had an incredible view. The location was also perfect, close to shops and the beach but also walking distance (10 or so minutes) to two massive supermarkets.But the best part of all was the rooftop pool and spa area. Looks even better in person than the photos and that's saying something!
Review 81:We were charged for an extra 2 sachet of dish washing liquid even though we stayed for two nights and we only asked for one more nights' worth...this was a bit surprising given the price paid for the apartment and that it was only 50c each ...it was not the price but that we were asked to pay!
Review 82:Views, proximity to shops/groceries and rooftop pool/spa/sauna
Review 83:Quite a lot of traffic noise as it was on main road through Caloundra.
