The location is very pretty. The view from the unit is balmy & soothing. Management were friendly and welcoming.
The carparking adequate.
But, the buildings are tired now. There is evidence of building decay and water / salt damage. The carpet in the common areas needs throwing out and replacing with tiles. One of the lifts wasn't working.
Our guess is the units are privately owned and some owners don't take pride in being in the letting pool. In the unit we were allocated, the couches are saggy and badly in need of a clean. The bed was very firm and the pillows pathetically thin and lumpy. Taps leaked, fans did not work. As I said, everything was tired and becoming tacky.
The provisioning of the unit was, in our opinion, stingy. It was the little things, like no spare rubbish bin liner and only 2/3rds of a toilet roll - that's it, no spare here either. In our 4 night stay there was no towel or linen replacement but only one laundry powder satchet.
We had been of the opinion we were renting a 2 bedroom apartment (which would have been nice as my husband has some health issues and sometimes needs his own space) but although the unit itself was 2 bedroomed, one bedroom was locked.
We paid $1566 for 4 nights. There is a plethora of beach front units on the Gold Coast that we could have booked for far less - like $600-700 less so we has thought we were getting something pretty nice.
Quite simply The Rocks is outdated and needs $2-3 million spent on it - and that would be just to tidy up the buildings, lifts and common areas. Then there would need a commitment from the owners to bring the units up to scratch. Either that or make the price per night reflective of its declining value.
Sadly, we would not stay here again nor recommend it.

Amazing location. Rooms comfortable and ours was updated a little, but needs some attention. Shower pressure terrible. Aircon in bedrooms but not in main living area, which didn't bother us once we opened up all the sliding doors to the balcony and served us well as we love fresh sea air - kept us cool. Resort facilities like pool, gym, games room a little dated but adequate. Undercover parking is good for higher vehicles too. Views were next level, great walking paths and cafes on your doorstep.

OMG……what a nice holiday! Our host Leanne is such a wonderful and kind person, she had made us feel very special and welcoming. We had booked 9J apartment for a week during this Christmas and we loved every minute of it! Kingscliff holiday home had advertised this place as a luxurious accommodation and we agreed 100%. This is a luxurious place and prices are very reasonable specially during busy season. We’ll definitely come back to stay here again soon. Once again thank you so much Leanne for making our stay very comfortable and enjoyable, much appreciated it!

We enjoyed fantastic views from a comfortable clean and modern apartment. Great pool and really close to the beach

The view from the 10th floor was very nice, but how can you not love a view of Currumbin Beach? The apartment (10C) was quite a disappointment. It was very worn down and in need of new carpets, a refresh of the decor, and a deep cleaning. I would not characterize this apartment as four stars, more like two stars.
