Book Meriton Burleigh Heads accommodation from NZ$185

We stayed at Ultiqa Mediterranean Apartments expecting a 2 Bedroom Superior Apartment for my wifes birthday and our babymoon, which is what we booked and paid for through Hotels.com. On arrival, it was clear we had instead been placed in a standard 2 bedroom apartment on the first floor. The room was bare and clearly the standard room as evidenced by its images on the hotel.com website corresponding to that for the standard room and not the superior room. After raising the issue with reception, we were moved to the correct room the following day, which we appreciated, but that still meant we spent the first night in the wrong room type which we paid additional for. Another major disappointment was that the outdoor pool was not operational, and we were not advised of this before arrival. We were advised that neighbouring construction but not t This was one of the reasons we chose the property, particularly as my pregnant wife was looking forward to being able to use the pool during our stay. Had we known this in advance, we may have booked elsewhere. To be fair, staff did ultimately offer to move us into the correct room, and we appreciated that effort. However, the stay did not begin as booked, and the lack of advance notice about the pool significantly affected our experience. Overall, this stay fell short of expectations and of what was advertised. I’d recommend future guests confirm both the exact room type and that key facilities are fully available before arrival.

The room was great, except there was a very strong cold cigarette smell

Ocean partially visible from rooms balcony. Music thumping all night til early hours of the morning louder than the tv would go was an awful nights sleep. Double glazing would be good for this. Was on the 15th floor god help Those below Us if it was as loud for us it had to be awful for those below. Won’t be back.

Room smelled like cigarettes when we checked in. It was so strong and honestly made you want to throw up. We called the front desk as we could barely breathe in the room. They came up and confirmed how bad it was but sad they didn’t have another room to move us to. There wasn’t even a window in the room to air it out so we had to stay in the room coughing on the smell of cigarette all night. Honestly makes me question how much attention they give to housekeeping if someone “cleaned” that room after the last guest and thought it would be ok to allocate another guest to.

Yes ocean view, amenities excellent

Good breakfast with some variety 👍
