Brilliant location. No great views but we didn't spend a lot of time here. Across the road from the wharf and a very short stroll to the esplanade. Great friendly staff and good value for money. Free parking. Lots and lots and LOTS of places to eat nearby.

Deciding to take a short break to Moolooaba, we purchased a 4 night package in a one bedroom apartment at Nautilus recently. Heading to the coast after work the night before Anzac day and taking the Friday off work gave us a 4 day weekend. We purchased the package back around November/December at $99 per night. This represented good value... More

Where do I begin. I am usually fairly open minded and easy going when it comes to reviews as every one has different expectations but when I stayed here with my wife and young son, parents in-law, brother in-law and grandparents we can't all be wrong can we? First impressions where disappointing. Units where small in comparison to most places... More

Thank you Galladry78 for the feedback on your recent stay. We are pleased to hear that your family enjoyed our spa and paddling pool, however your comment that the main pool was freezing is puzzling. The five storeys of apartments do not affect the pool temperature which is monitored daily and maintained at 28 degrees. We are disappointed that you... More

The best thing about Nautilus Apartments is their location - just a short block to the beachfront, surf club, children's playground and the restaurant and shopping strip on the esplanade. Across the road its a very short stroll to Underwater World and the marina. The second best thing about Nautilus Apartments is the pool - it looks quite small in... More

A little bit dated and in need of a good scrub. We considered extending our stay and enquired as to what the price would be. Was considerably cheaper than booking through agency. The price offered direct at the resort are a truer reflection rather than through agency. Has everything you need and is a nice short walk to shops and... More

Prior to Easter I had a wonderful two week stay at the Nautilus. The pool and waterfall are relaxing and soothing, a private little nook in the sun to work on your tan. I loved the prices, the room, my spa (which I miss) and the service. I had a few issues which needed attending to and I have to... More

We found it unsettling that we were warned about cooking & using toasters & smoke alarms going off & that we would have to foot the bill if they did go off a whopping $1000+ fee. Am all for fire safe but perhaps the smoke alarms need to be changed/reviewed we have never had this mentioned at any other appartment... More

Our recent visit to the Nautilus was a pleasant one. The hotel is not on the main strip but is still centrally located.
