I stumbled upon Rose Bay Resort and was pleasantly surprised by the stunning views and spacious apartments. The beachfront location is ideal for a peaceful getaway, but I was somewhat let down by the amenities and overall upkeep of the place. While the kitchen was well-equipped, I felt the price did not reflect the quality of the accommodations, which could definitely use some TLC.

The pool was small and not very inviting due to its location between buildings, which made it quite windy. Additionally, the lack of other amenities was disappointing.

I absolutely loved my stay at this resort! The beach view from our room was breathtaking, and I enjoyed watching both sunrises and sunsets from my balcony. The staff, especially Paul at the desk, were very helpful and knowledgeable. However, the arrival experience left a bit to be desired as the staff seemed inconvenienced, and the bathroom in our apartment could use some updates.

I had a wonderful stay at this resort, with breathtaking views over the bay and easy beach access just steps away. The apartment was spacious and beautifully furnished, providing a perfect environment for relaxation. The only downside was the small pool, but honestly, it didn't matter much since we could enjoy the ocean. Overall, it’s a peaceful getaway that I would highly recommend!

I had a fantastic stay at the resort, the location right on Rose Bay is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views and the soothing sound of the ocean at night. The spacious rooms come well-equipped and are perfect for relaxation, but a few aspects could use improvement, like the cleanliness and responsiveness of staff. It’s a great spot to unwind, although I did encounter some minor inconveniences during my stay.
