Prenota se You're a family or small group wanting a self-catering base with a free golf buggy and direct lawn access.
Perché piace così tanto

- Ground floor position opens directly onto a grassy lawn (perfect for kids and wallabies)
- Renovated interior feels significantly fresher than many other 'tired' Poinciana units
In sintesi: A solid, practical family rental that trades 5-star hotel service for a full kitchen and a free ride around the island.
Recensito da @enchantedwhitsundays: I stayed at this gorgeous apartment and the ocean views from the patio were absolutely stunning. The best part was the complimentary buggy—it made exploring the island so easy. It really felt like my own slice of tropical paradise.

Suggerimenti degli Insider
- ✨
The 'valet' service is strictly for arrival/departure luggage; don't expect them to park your buggy at dinner.
- ✨
Wallabies will come right up to the patio—do not feed them, or they will become aggressive pests.
- ✨
The complex pool often has more shade than the main Catseye pool, making it better for midday swims.
5 cose da sapere prima di partire
💡The 'sea view' is lovely but partially filtered by lush vegetation.
💡You are responsible for charging the buggy; if it dies, you pay the towing fee.
💡The second bedroom can be tight if configured with two single beds.
💡There is no daily maid service; you are living like a local.
💡Curlews (birds) scream like murdering banshees at night—bring earplugs.
