Find the Cheap Mapleton Hotels

Has something changed in the last few months? New owners? Not sure, but it didn't meet the expectations we had come to rely on after many years staying here. The rooms seemed bare, with the 2 and 3 bedroom apartments having insufficient seating to let all the occupants sit down. Parts of the rooms/balconies are run down with rotting tables and blinds covered in cobwebs, though the interiors remain sparse, but clean, some furniture has seen better days though. The location means there is almost no mobile phone reception, meaning guests are heavily reliant on wifi, which quite frankly is not fit for purpose (slower than dial up) with spotty coverage as you move around. If you are seeking to disconnect from the world then you're on a role. For the rest of us, it is useless even for simple news reading, if you have teenagers who need to plug in while away, don't stay here. The restaurant, once a superb dining experience is reduced to pub style meals with a pay at the counter approach that somehow seems at odds with the up-market dining area. We tried it one evening, but spent the rest of our stay walking up the hill into the town for food where there are many options available. The staff were friendly and approachable, but the place has lost its pizzaz and appeal. Given the competition in the area, this is a shame. This will be the last time we choose to stay here, which after 4 years of eager returns is a testimony to how it has changed.

Everything was perfect. Our cottage was lovely and clean. Very peaceful weekend. We will definitely be back.

The worst accommodation I have stayed in for a long time. Swimming pool is half empty and yes I understand it is winter but it looks derelict. Went to plug in the kettle in my room and almost electrocuted myself. Went to reception to report to be told ”oh yes it's been broken for a week”, when I proceeded to ask if she had informed my husband of this as he had checked in she said ”No” ... REALLY super dangerous. 2 coffee cups and 2 teaspoons supplied only, not even a glass for drinking water. Cheapo wobbly table with 2 slatted uncomfortable chairs. Springy thin mattress, thank heavens we only had to endure one night on it. Stairs outside our room were wobbly, with loose carpet tiles at the top of them (hmmm another safety issue!) and creaked as anyone ascended or descended. Carpet in the room stank of wet dog. Staff were smug that they were ”fully booked” I am guessing that this was because the Nambour Garden Show was on at this time as why else would you ever stay here???? For $130 there are SO many better accommodations I have stayed in. Do yourself a favour and stay somewhere else.

We stayed overnight to celebrate a special occasion and had a very memorable and enjoyable experience. The service was excellent and the room and property were beautifully presented. The highlight of the stay was the 5 course meal at The Long Apron Restaurant, with the food, wine and service all being top notch. The staff also went above and beyond as we unfortunately had a accident that required some medical attention, a very kind staff member named Suzanne (Please correct me if I got the name wrong!) did not hesitate to take us to the nearest hospital despite it being after midnight, thank you again Suzanne!

After reading reviews I didn’t expect much but was pleasantly surprised. The park is being revamped slowly and offers good facilities but could get better: 1. Great new amenity block but having a 2 minute timer on the light switch is a PITA, maybe look at a movement sensor with 5 minute timeout? 2. New showers are OK but lack clothes hooks (have 1) and also lack a place to put shampoo etc. BBQ area is nice but not a great alternative to a camp kitchen with an oven and good washing up facilities. New cabins look nice, garden landscaping is great. Yes there are a few permanents but why wouldn’t there be, there is a housing crisis and they have a solid roof, and certainly didn’t detract from my stay, in fact I reckon having some constant eyes on the park is a good thing. Overall a good stay, no real issues although park could do with better lighting.
