Maldives Resort Main Beach, Gold Coast

Decent hotel, nice location

I was pleasantly surprised with the property. I booked superior one bedroom ocean view, the room was clean bright and open, everything I needed for a single person stay. The location of the Maldives was perfect so many places to eat for breaky , lunch and dinner plus only a short walk to the beach.

Nice location,helpful staff, good pool, property not brand new but all comfortable, clean and functional in a good location with a good view.

We were very surprised by this hotel. It is an older style building but was an amazing place to stay. Reception staff were very friendly. The room was clean and well equipped. The bed was very comfy and the shower had great water pressure. The view was amazing and it was walking distance to everything.

We're deeply disappointed with our stay at the Maldives Resort. I considered cancelling when we got into our room, but it was after hours & wasn't worth it after the trip here to find new accommodation on such short notice. Upon arrival (after hours), all was well & went smoothly for booking in. The gentleman at the counter was lovely. We went up to the apartment to find our accommodation was not at all what was described or depicted on the website. Which is misleading & deceptive. The walls were putrid, with splatter marks of filth & stains. You can clearly define the difference between wear & tear & filth. The walls, switches, windows & power points would come up a treat with a wipe over with sugar soap & windex. The kitchen floor was sticky & the fridge had old food crumbs in it & the seals were dirty too. There were fingerprints everywhere over the kitchen cupboards & bench tops as well. We had to clean every dish & utensil we needed to use as they too were not clean & stained. Even the plug to use in the sink was filthy - we couldn't believe it, it was like several people had stayed & the room hadn't been cleaned or something, except for a quick vacuum & sheet change. We feel as though a backpackers would have been cleaner than this room. Yes, it may appear tidy as in everything is in its place, but it was so far from clean or up to a standard of a resort accommodating guests. The lamp didn't work (bulb must be blown). The ceiling fan blades were filthy - you can see it in the pictures I took. Everything felt sticky & dirty. As for the TV, this is a bit of an OH&S issue with leads hanging out of the wall like that. You need to have a proper power point, not a hole in the wall through the plaster, this is NOT what a resort accommodation would have. I haven't even gotten to the bathroom or bedroom yet. The bathroom wasn't very clean either, with grime, dust, mildew & mold. We understand you're near the beach, but we reside near a beach & this doesn't occur with proper cleaning. Again this room too had splatters of filth on walls. The walls were all half botched and not patched up properly. The bedroom: Again walls were grotty, fan dirty, bedside lamps covered in dust & dirt. It was like the balcony was cleaner than the inside space. Now that's saying something. The next day, we came back from a day out exploring to find someone had taken our allocated car space. I approached the gentleman at the front desk as my husband patiently waited in the car park for me to find out what was going on. The gentleman on the desk said to move our car to space 26, which was on the other side of the car park away from the lift. He said he'd leave a notice on the car that had taken our space, which we assumed the car would eventually be moved. But the next morning the car was still there, without a note on it. Later that day we returned hoping our original allocated space would be free again, still the car had not been Each time we came back from a

all furniture and fixtue are old fashion but all staff are very friendy.

Always a convenient place for me to stay at.

Excellent
