8.8/10 Excellent! (439 reviews)

Gemini Court provided excellent communication from the time of booking. Our stay with them was so enjoyable. The access to shopping and dining options in Burleigh were amazing. As was the easy access to beaches and the national park. It was a delight to begin every day with a 5km walk through the national park and we sighted many whales during our stay. The pool was heated to a comfortable temperature and the spa was the best way to end our days.

8.4/10 Very Good! (257 reviews)

Very close to town Clean and bright Basic and functional Good size apartment Construction next door was not that bad but unfortunately shades the pool. Checkout on a sunday 10am and could leave bags but not past 12pm, so slightly annoying as flight was not until later in the day. If we could have had access to front door for the afternoon that would have made the stay much easier. Overall a good choice and generally a very easy stay.
