My husband & I have just returned from a 3 night stay at the Swell Resort. Our apartment faced directly onto the Gold Coast Hwy . We heard the traffic all day & night and although it eased slightly at night it was still very hard to sleep. There is a tavern situated directly below the resort & on the... more

This was a double story apartment with laundry, Master bedroom with ensuite and 2nd bedroom upstairs.

We enjoyed staying at Swell Resort. It met and exceeded our expectations. We had heard that road facing apartments can be a little noisy. There was some noise from the large balcony, but more noise from the birds at sunset! There was very little road noise with the doors shut and aircon on. more

We have just returned from 12 nights at Swell Resort and, quite frankly, can't wait to go back. Having read previous reviews from Trip Advisor members we specifically asked for a pool view room and were pleased to find our request was able to be accommodated. The room (1108) was well fitted out, spacious, and contained everything we needed for... more

I visited The Swell for a Xmas/Birthday celebration with family and friends. We were there for 7 nights . Upon arriving The Swell charged me again for my stay even though I had made them aware again that I had paid in full and then refunded my credit card over four seperate transactions leaving me out of pocket nearly $200.00... more

I stayed in my friend's apartment at Swell and what an experience. The noisey traffic from the highway made it impossible to rest. The tavern below cannot control it's patrons and the language is something else. I found great difficulty crossing the highway with my grandchildren. This forced us to only venture to the beach when the traffic was at... more

My family & i stayed here in September for a quiet family friendly holiday & this was not the case. Firstly, the views promised were not delivered as there are huge highrises blocking the view between your room & the beach. We were not happy with that as we were in our rooms quite alot as we have small children... more

I always check with Tripadvisor before I book a hotel and booked this hotel because of the good reviews. The complex is fairly new and the apartments were great. I was impressed that the 2 bedroom apartments each have their own bathroom which is quite rare. The Mowbray surf club across the road is great for meals and drinks as... more

Was looking for a place that had self-catering option, clean and tidy, was good for toddlers, and living space. As we had 2 littlies under three, we would be confined to the room somewhat & this place was great; it was close to the shops, beach [OK so you had to walk to it, and across a highway - as... more
