The Hastings Beach Houses

Excellent location easy access to the Noosa Main Beach and Hastings St shops and bars/restaurants. Apparently the units are independently owned, are different and condition may vary. Apartment 16 is clean tidy and well equipped.  Reception staff were helpful. Access on arrival was difficult with the keys, not working properly but this was soon fixed. The Apartment 16 has a very narrow stairway up to the property. Also a narrow staircase from living room to bedrooms. These accesses are not suitable for people who have difficulty with stairs. Apartment 16 main bedroom has a windows which at low level cannot be covered by blind, allowing light in, that may affect sleep. Also, parking for a big car is very difficult in the tight area underneath.

After we booked this accommodation we read several negative reviews so were unsure what to expect and arrived with some trepidation. Firstly, we were upgraded from a superior 1 bed unit to a superior 2 bed two bathroom (No 20). We found it roomy, well equipped and in an acceptable state of repair with a nice private balcony overlooking the garden. The Beach Houses have a perfect location on Hastings Street and a short walk to the beach, there are strict rules concerning noise levels and the site feels very secure especially at night. There was building work taking place close by at the time of our stay but did not spoil our time there. As for the negatives the standard of cleaning was very minimal, I had to wipe down all the doors, light switches, handles and remote controls on arrival. Upstairs, the air conditioning units, fans and windows were all covered in a thick layer of dust which was a shame. The pool was nice and warm with plenty of sunbeds just a pity that some of the mosaic tiles were missing around the edge of the pool. We could hear the early morning deliveries at the nearby shopping centre but when the rebuilding of the house behind this one are complete we think this will considerably reduce the noise levels.

We really liked the location of this property. It was a short walk to the beach and shops. The fact that the house was on 3 levels was a little bit of an effort but okay. It catered to our needs. We would stay again.

The property was clean , neat & looked after , some of the nails on the balcony needed to be hammered in otherwise very good.

I typically do not write reviews and had somewhat forgotten about our stay at Hastings Beach houses until I started looking again for next year's holiday and felt like I had to write a review which I have NEVER done in the past (good or bad) with any hotel. The location really was quite good, there was a bit of noise from the night club next door but you could overlook this given your were right in the middle of hastings Street. This is where the positives for me end. The unit itself was miserable, dated and in desperate need of a renovation. We stayed in House 9. We were told by management that the owners are aware of the state of the house and that they plan to demolish and rebuild (btw this house is still being advertised on ***********). Even knowing the state of the house was sub- standard, they were still quite happy to charge decent money for it. I would never stay at this place again unless they were renovated.

Great location… uncomfortable lounge..dirty kitchen table very dated Beach House number #23!! Brocken shower head……rolling single beds..blocked bathroom sink 😱untidy garden, stuffy laundry ,no kitchen exhaust fans

Positives The location is fabulous - right behind Hastings Street. The service - correspondence with the provider was great. Flexible and prompt. Towels - big enough for a plus size person (but no face washers and no second towel if you happen to wash your hair). Cleanliness. Climate comfort - both air conditioned and ceiling fans. The beach houses have a car park which is secure - a definite bonus in this part of noosa. Less positive Due to the location, there is constant noise from the surrounding accommodation and the nearby Bay Village shopping centre (cars and trucks). The provider is up front about there being stairs (which is good) but there two sets of stairs (one to get into the beach house and one to get up to the bedrooms and bathrooms) and they are narrow - I personally found it hard to carry up a suitcase. I also found the main bedroom small and the bed uncomfortable - but beds are a very personal thing. I also don’t like having to take out my own rubbish or be charged a fee - that’s not luxurious to me. I paid approx $500 per night.

Centre of Noosa. Steep stairs. Not recommended for guests with mobility issues. No. 14 is a little noisy as it is close to Noosa Parade. We had an enjoyable stay.

This property is in a great location, but it was not as described, plumbing and aircon noisy, run down, broken crockery, unsafe stairs. It was advertised for rent even though it is to be pulled down in a few months, should never have been available. Do not recommend.
