Mandolin Beachfront Resort

The room is bit old but clean, great location and the pool and spa are nice. The kids’ play room is old and bit messy, unfortunately the reception staff was not on site so when we need to contact the staff over the phone she sounded confused too😂

The staff were excellent. Pearl on the phone, Ruby on the reception and property manager Cat were all first class. We stayed two nights on the 10th floor facing south and we loved it so much we stayed another five nights on the 9th floor facing north. Both apartments were renovated to different degrees but both immaculately clean and fresh. The views spectacular! Both apartments were 2 bedroom/2 bathrooms. Both had a full kitchen with all the cutlery, crockery and utensils you might need. Beds were all comfortable. The outdoor facilities at this resort are excellent. A large heated pool and a heated children’s pool too. Large extensive BBQ area with plenty of seating under cover. A full sized tennis court and a mini golf course on site were well utilised during our stay. There is a great Vietnamese restaurant at the front of the property (on the street) and we ate there several times. The staff were lovely and the food was excellent. We also at at the Alex Surf Club opposite the Mandolin with easy access by pedestrian crossing with traffic lights. At the back of the surf club there is a cafe which is perfect for an early morning coffee and light breakfast. Coles Mooloolaba is a five minute drive away. Also nearby is Sealife and The Ginger Factory which we all enjoyed. Australia Zoo is also an easy drive. We have booked to return in March 2025, can’t wait, we had a great visit October 2024.

We have stayed here in the past and will stay here again. Mandolin is close to Sunshine Plaza Maroochydore, Mooloolaba Beach and of course a short stroll to the Alex Beach Surf Life Saving Club. From here you can access Noosa Beach, Coolum Beach and many other fabulous beaches on the Sunshine Coast, but you will enjoy Alex Beach just as much as any other.

Position of the Resort worked very well for us. We had a great 3 nights away enjoyed the resort and check was very easy. We used both the Pool and Spa which were fantastic. Would definitely book here again. We had a great view from our 12th floor apartment and the room was clean and tidy.

Loved our weekend stay here. Such a great location! Right across from the beach, some great eateries in walking distance not to mention we loved using the facilities here - tennis court, spa and pool. Has 1 car park per room which was nice and easy. Rooms were lovely and aircon was refreshing. Nice to sit on the porch as well to enjoy the sea breeze. Reception was only a phone call away and brought us what we wanted pretty quickly. We would defs stay again!

We were very pleased with our Superior Ocean View apartment. Spacious, very clean, well equipped, comfortable with amazing and relaxing views from our wrap around balcony. Proximity to beach, surf club and cafes is excellent. Staff were amazing with my special requests and general friendliness and helpfulness.
