It was a quick last minute visit to Mooloolaba, so despite some internet research, it was pot luck on price, availability and location. It was a late check-in, around 9.30pm and what followed was a really fantastic enjoyable 2-night stay. Despite the one little problem of the spa bath not working, we couldn’t fault this place if we tried, starting... More

We stayed at Raffles in April. We were incredibly pleased with the apartment. Ours was a wee bit tired but nothing worth mentioning. The furniture was of great quality and the apartment was clean. The only downside of our stay at Raffles was the street noise. It would have been nice to have been able to spend a bit more... More

Not having stayed at Mooloolaba before we chose Raffles based on comments posted. The location to the beach is excellent, though the multi lane road below was noisy at times. The access for the top level pent house apartments to the bbq area is via a wobbly spiral staircase - quite dangerous for children. Found it quite difficult to carry... More

Friendly staff and good location - very easy walking distance to Coles etc, restaurants, cafes, and the beach. We stayed in a two bedroom and two bathroom penthouse. I am expecting though, so didn't like the thought of using the small narrow (and slightly wobbly) outdoor spiral staircase to rooftop level. Clean, tidy and well presented rooms.
