Ocean Plaza Resort is a fantastic place for family getaways with spacious and modern rooms boasting stunning ocean views. The location is brilliant, with easy access to shops and dining options, making it very convenient for families. While we loved our stay, the price has increased, which is a bit of a downside.

I had a very disappointing experience during my stay. Despite the wonderful location across from the beach, the room was old and uncomfortable, with smelly bathrooms. The lack of service and essential supplies was a major letdown. The view was beautiful, but it couldn't make up for the overall lack of cleanliness and comfort.

I had a wonderful stay at Ocean Plaza, where the view from our room was simply spectacular, especially over Snapper Rocks. The apartment was spacious, clean, and well-equipped, making it very comfortable for our family. The location couldn't be better, just a short walk to the beach and local shops. Although everything was fantastic, I found the service to be quite average compared to the excellent accommodations. Overall, it was great value for a lovely vacation spot.

I had an absolutely fantastic stay at this resort; it truly felt like a home away from home with everything I could want at my fingertips. The breathtaking views from our room took my breath away, and the amenities around the resort made every day enjoyable. However, I was a bit surprised to find additional charges for parking, which detracted slightly from the overall experience.
