The ocean view with balcony is grate, overall room fine. However, mould around the bath needs to be removed. Lights either side of the bed should work. A bit noisy on Saturday night with the load music from the ground floor. We did not appreciate the cleaner bagging and opening the door at 8:55am asking if we were leaving ?

Nice property, with great location - absolutely beachfront. We stayed in a premier ocean room which have lovely ocean views. Location is also quite close to the main dining strip at Glenelg. Room was functional if not necessarily the most spacious. Convenient parking and front staff was quite helpful and there are beach toys that you can borrow from the front desk as well. Overall good choice for a stay at Glenelg

Loved staying at the Oaks for 2 weeks. Had a one bedroom apartment overlooking the park that was perfect for 1-2 people. It had a good sized fridge, clothes washer, microwave, dishwasher and oven/stove. I might have cooked more, but too many good food options nearby. Perfect location.

As an older couple we had a very safe,quiet ,relaxing couple of days. Suite was excellent, everything you needed was there or easily available from the reception where the staff were very polite and obliging. The menus in both the restaurant and sports bar could have been more varied, very little to tempt us .The position of hotel was excellent and so easy to get around. Beautiful beach right outside the hotel door. Most enjoyable stay ( we wish we had stayed longer). Highly Recommended.

Staff were very friendly. Room was a great size. Loved the location. Few minor issues, Broken outdoor chair on the balcony that pinched the back of my leg when I sat on it. Bed side table near window wasn’t clean, still had sticky drink marks on it. Couldn’t get wifi to work in our room. Tried contacting reception via phone in the room but gave up after 2 hours of it being constantly engaged. No dish cloth provided, only a small green scourer. Couldn’t even use a flannel because we didn’t have one of those either. No where to keep our valuables when we went out as the safe provided had an out of order sign on it. Minor issues but when you’re paying $358 a night it’s not really acceptable.

For a self contained apartment it was very poorly provisioned - not enough plates, no coffee machine or plunger, no small vegetable knives, nothing like a salad bowl or platter to present food on at the table, very few prep equipment- no bowls, grater or colander, no paper towels to wipe up spills etc. There was so little equipment we didn’t bother with the dishwasher as we would have needed to run it after every meal in order to have plates available.
