Nice apartment ,shame about the shower
Stayed for 3 nights in a really nice apartment with individual touches , nice furnishings the only down side was the shower. It was over a small bath that was not very wide making it awkward to wash properly. If the bath/shower was replaced with a walk in unit the Apartment would tick all the boxes.

The first apartment they put us in had a shower over bath. This is not acceptable because of my medical conditions and they did assure us that we had a walk in shower. They put us in another apartment which was quite good. Then we had to move to another suite for the last night so most of our last day was moving to another building.

Family break away.
Townhouse at Ramada Whale Cove was adequate for our stay. Didn't like the fact though that garage entrance door and main timber entrance door don't have any insect screening into home and not sealed well to prevent cockroachs entering the living spaces. We had the buffet breakfast offered at Smokey Joes, it was dissapointing to us adults, kids didn't notice with their basic breakfast choosing. Pastries were undercooked, chewy and tasteless, bacon wasn't cooked well. Pancakes flat and flavourless. More like a flat crepe in texture. The one and only poached egg left in the container for myself at the time was cold but cooked well. Overall very average for what we expected from the Ramada. Family was dissapointed also that the children couldn't ride their small bikes inside the property grounds near our townhouse. Wouldn't stay at Whale Cove again as not very family friendly and basic overall.

The unit was nice and spacious. However, the noise from above unit was not ideal and when you sleep in a different bed, you expect it to be comfortable (as this is the most important thing). The bed was absolutely horrible. Both my husband and I had sore backs from the experience. Shame, because the unit was a great size and the pool area was great too,
