Plenty of apartments, NO aircon (explains low prices), small pool. Very close to the airport (planes landing and starting are about a 100m above the building), thus quite noisy. one of the fewer places right on the beach though, but windy. lawns are badly maintained and dirty, dont walk barefoot. building was built in the 70s I guess, that everything...

Found San Simeon a great place to base ourselves (family of five) for a week. Great location on the beach with ocean views. Apartment was comfortable and spacious, bedrooms had new beds and a rollaway was provided. Kitchen was well equipped for the odd occasion we had energy to cook a meal. A couple of very minor suggestions: A couple... More

We were wanting to stay on absolute beachfront so we could listen to the sound of the waves to relax. Instead we heard the sound of airplanes as the apartment is directly under a flight path to the airport! The bedrooms were also positioned in the front so instead of falling asleep to the sound of the waves, we heard... More

Thank you for taking the time to review our property. We are sorry your stay did not live up to your expectations and regret any disturbances you may have had from the airport. From your other comments I gather you were staying in a corner apartment. We realise the ensuite's in these apartments are smaller than average but the main... More

San Simeon is a great place to stay. Close too the gold coast air port, absolute beach front apartments. Pool, roof top sauna, roof top hot tub and tennis court are all great inclusions. The location is great, with in walking distance from all shops u could need. But still away from the hustle and bustle. Would recommend staying at... More

Thank you for taking the time to write such a positive review. Over the past year we have upgraded most of the facilities and it is good to get great feedback. One thing we can't change is the close proximity to the beach & airport but why would we want too! We look forward to your return visit. More

We have stayed at San Simeon apartments most years, for the past 8 years. It has a superb location; right on the beach and only a couple of blocks from restaurants, supermarkets and all the services you may need. There is a bus stop at your door if you want to venture north to Surfers paradise or theme parks and... More

We spent 1 night here early february and wish we could've stayed longer as it was a great place. Our needs were a comfortable hotel near the airport and this place ticked those boxes and some. Staff were very friendly. We were a walk-in off the street booking and were shown the room before check-in which we appreciated. The hotel... More

Great place. Everything you could need in the kitchen - even a drinks fridge. Lovely large family bathroom with detachable shower head good for showering kids. Aircon in bedrooms only. Lovely swimming pool right by the beach. Didn't mind the planes overhead.
