Great family fun and relaxed vibe to the resort. Second time staying there. Especially after staying at other resorts before this place Turtle beach definitely needs an upgrade with its rooms. They are a bit run down, our toilet stopped working on multiple occasions, not the end of the world and it was fixed promptly but same problem again the next day. Gave up on trying to make the Dishwasher work again used the sink anyway , a few main channels on the tv didn’t work but worked in the bed room so not the end of the world either and it was great having a full kitchen however it was tough work cooking on the stove and pans with how long they took to heat up and cook anything half decent this was probably a main issue. Pool toilets also..there are only 1 in some pool areas and not the nicest, dont really see any kids using them anyway when swimming for hours, not sure any showers around even the gym has no shower or toilet facilities. The games room is a complete waist of time. Kids club looks great. The pools themselves are great fun and the water slides are awesome fun for 6-12 year olds. Cafe has great options and the pizza is high class. Drinks pretty pricey but there are plenty of options for food and drinks across the rd. Great place and location I just think after visiting multiple times and for the price they charge it’s due for some upgrades in room standards and around the resort toilets ect

So as soon as you get there you need $200 as a deposit, I thought 2.5k already paid was sufficient but no...you'll need to by your own everything also (toilet paper, salt&pepper, dishwasher liquid etcetera) as nothing is supplied and if you're really unlucky you'll have a family staying above you that has running race's at 6am every morning so no sleeping on on your holidays. Was great for the kid's but not for us adults

I would totally recommend coming here for your holiday. It has everything you need. The 2 bedroom apartment we stayed in was big and it had a massive kitchen with a washing machine and dryer. There was kids pool play area which was great. Plus there was another 4 pools to choose from. Food was amazing and everything was clean and tidy.

Great value for a family holiday! We stayed in a ground-level apartment near the splash park and it was a great option for our family. The apartment wasn't 5-star fancy but it was pretty great for a family with 2 young kids. Only minor complaint was that the kitchen could have had a couple more convenient items like scissors and some baking trays. Otherwise the facilities had everything we needed and the staff were helpful and friendly. The resort is conveniently located near a supermarket and has several good dining options within a short walk. Also a short walk to the beach made it a perfect option for us. The kids thought they were in paradise with the pools and splash park. Adults loved the conveniently located Deck restaurant.

I took my girls last minute on the school holidays to the facilities as it was a kids paradise, and it didn't disappoint. We were allowed access on the first day prior to check in for the girls to play and swim etc. The resort has a bar/coffee/food facilities right next to the main pool and splash zone, as well as various other pool areas playground and around the resort putt putt course. The rooms were very comfortable, clean and tidy and well maintained. We couldn't fault the stay apart from the road works happening out the front which wasn't the fault of the resort at all, it just made it more difficult to navigate walking anywhere with small children. We loved our stay and will be back again!

We stayed at Turtle Beach Resort from the 3rd September - 12th September. The rooms were very outdated and not clean, lots of bugs and cockroaches. Staff were friendly at the actual resort but the booking management team are terrible - absolute mess around and charged us for leaving towels in the bathroom (the towels the hotel provided) and for overfilling the bin. It’s a bit of a pain to get into surfers paradise as you need to get the bus then the tram - they are extending the tram line and say it will be done by 2026 but still, for now it’s a bit tricky. Plenty of pools. There are also only stairs up the apartments so limited access for disabilities and those with prams. Getting between each side of the resort would be hard too for disabled as little ramp access. Disappointed as it is so expensive!

The property is in a great spot for transport, beach and has shops nearby for supplies. The property is tired and needs updating. Or water was luke warm during our stay. Our kitchen was not fully equipped which made it difficult for us. The television services are very basic with no instructions regarding channels etc. The resort is quite dark lots of greenery but that blocks out a lot of light. We enjoyed aspects of the place but were not overly impressed.
