Emerald Noosa

We just enjoyed a wonderful long weekend away with our family at The Emerald Noosa (Hastings St). When traveling with the kids or friend getaways, we have typically stayed in standard level accommodation (just varying sizes depending on the group size), but this time we had our teenage/adult kids with us and wanted a bit more space. We splashed out and upgraded to the penthouse apartments which we HIGHLY recommend, even if you do it off peak to keep costs down. We chose to make most of our own meals and ate in to also justify more on accom. The kitchen and fridge were huge and reasonably well stocked so it made it all very easy. There is so much more space to spread out, especially with older kids. Photos don't do it justice, all the rooms felt very large especially for a unit. Not that we used it but the rooftop is massive - the size of the entire unit if you wanted to host a family BBQ up there and had several families staying in Noosa. There were two decent size balconies off either end of the penthouse too. It was great not feeling crammed in. All areas were clean and tidy, linen and pillows fresh etc. We stayed in one of the Platinum (vs Classic) units, which are the "renovated" options. We wouldn't probably stay in the Classic option because we felt even the Platinum was starting to look a little dated but they're still very well maintained. The resort staff were amazing. Excellent customer service, very warm and attentive. They made our stay that much more special and nothing felt like too much trouble. The Emerald is in such a great spot - so central and easy to access, making it perfect when you want to cart less to the beach and just race back to the room to grab something or eat back at the room to save money/carting more to the beach. We will definitely be back!

We had a fantastic stay at Emerald Noosa Apartments with our cousins when we were visiting them from Perth, and despite some initial reservations, we were thoroughly impressed with the ideal location on Hastings Street, surrounded by exceptional eateries, shopping, a food court, and beautiful boutiques that were impossible to resist. The apartments were clean and offered a home-from-home experience, with ample space for all of us, and although slightly dated, they had everything we needed. The pool, sauna, free parking, and luggage trolley were wonderful added extras that made our stay even more enjoyable. It's a truly beautiful place to stay.

Great location and great service.
