Overall Ratings & Reviews Xanadu Main Beach Resort

Perfect place to stay just out of Surfers but in walking distance, rooms were big, views to the beach, love it here.

Great view and nice location

Always a great stay at Xanadu. The facilities are great & good location. Unit was very nice & mostly comfortable. Issue with heating but every effort was made to fix. The showers in both bathrooms were very sensitive with temperature control & as a result, you could not shower for long. There was a major issue with construction work noise starting very early in the adjacent complex. This was not a Xanadu problem but it did make the stay a bit frustrating. These guys are starting loud work way before 6am!

Excellent views from the well appointed room and friendly service from all staff. There is an indoor heated pool and sauna and cold outdoor pool with bbq facilities. After the cyclone the beach is no longer flat and there is a steep decline with some areas fenced off, there is also a lot of repair work being done to try and fix the beach. This is not something the property can control but worth noting. A small but usable gym has everything you need and the apartments come with all cooking utensils you need. I would suggest they include some kind of oil for cooking, I was starting 3 nights and it is not worth buying a full bottle of oil but I definitely needed it! It is a short walk to the beach, restaurants and a 20min walk over the bridge to a week stocked woolworths (avoid the overpriced IGA nearby). All in all I had a great stay, I was able to organise a late check out but they allow you to use a visitors pass so you can use the pool and facilities (including showers) until you need to leave. I'll be back!

Great apartment, great location, great amenities. Highly recommend and would stay again.

The property location is great. But the property is bit old than the pictures l. View is ok

View!!!!!!We have stayed at Xanadu almost yearly if available. Have stayed a few other places due to needing 3 beds sometimes but always feel comfortable at Xanadu and the units are large and fresh. 2 balconies. Easy walking to beach shops and restaurants. Looking fwd to staying there again later in the year.

Lovely decor, spacious clean, good views. Good pool and spa.

Beach view was great 👍

Overall a wonderful family stay at Xanadu (12yo and 10yo children). Tedders Ave around the corner was great for dining out. Loved joining the locals for the ritual beach-front exercise each morning! All the conveniences of a washer, dryer, kitchen, safe, & wifi in-apartment, and the kids enjoyed the shared facilities like the pools and spas after long days at the theme parks

Had a fabulous holiday with an amazing ocean facing apartment. Huge 2nrm, 2 bathroom apartment. Super clean and tidy with everything you could possibly need. 2min walk to wonderful cafes and restaurants, great coffee and amazing gelato. Will definitely be back!

Been a few years since we stayed and just as good as we remembered. Definitely going back.

Ocean view, across from the beach, apt was clean and well appointed, staff were very helpful. We have stayed there on previous occasions, but the units are starting to show their age. One thing to note is that there is construction of a new condo project next to the East Tower, and their day started at 6:00 a.m.

loved our stay here - staff were super friendly and helpful

Such a beautiful place to stay! We had a superior one bedroom on the 22nd floor and could not fault the apartment at all. The balcony was amazing, the view incredible. Unfortunately our timing was off as this is where we watched Cyclone Alfred come in! Great communication with all the staff…the ladies on the reception were wonderful and so helpful. We will definitely stay here again and would highly recommend Xanadu as the place to stay.

Best place in main beach

We were originally attracted to the photos of the hotel rooms and location. However the reality was something quite different. The overall style and presentation is still stuck in the 80s. Our room while spacious had lumpy and scratchy furniture and bedding. We had to cover with towels. I understand renovations are underway to bring to 2025 level of style, decorum and comfort.

The apartment was perfect except the air conditioner didn’t work properly. The air flow to the bedroom was very poor which ment I had to have the aircon on very gold for the bedroom to cool which also ment the rest of the apartment was too cold

We had a wonderful stay at Xanadu resort, this was our second time staying here, we were last here five years ago, on a trip to Australia from the UK. When we arrived in our apartment there was a lovely welcome back gift for us which was a lovely gesture and very much appreciated. There was a lot of work going on with the driveway and gardens which are looking good and I’m sure will be beautiful when finished.

Our third stay at the property and it did not disappoint Great locatiom, clean, quiet building.
