The weather was spectacular while we were there, and we had a romantic and relaxing time at the resort.  Before I get specific, let me say right off that I would highly recommend this resort to others.

To begin – THE BEACHES!  I am a beach person and the Mana Island Resort is connected with 3 different beaches – North Beach, South Beach, and Sunset Beach.  All of them are stunning and they all offer swimming, snorkeling, and amazing walks and views.  Because of the way the beaches are situated on the island, if it is too windy at one, you can simply go to another. Water shoes are not a bad idea, though, as there are a lot of coral reefs around and they will protect your feet and let your enjoy the beauty of the coral.  Definitely bring an underwater camera!  The variations between sand and rocky spots and incredible water make this resort the perfect beach spot.

I had read some spotty food reviews about the resort, and I am a very picky eater, so I will admit I was a little concerned.  There was no need!  Honestly, the food was amazing. There was a buffet restaurant and an a la carte restaurant that we enjoyed, but we found that reservations were a good idea.  My husband also had planned ahead and ordered the meal package ahead of time, which was a really good idea for us because it did save us quite a bit of money.  Drinks are always separate but the prices were not outrageous so it was not a problem.  I also had read that some people had gotten ill, and that was not the case at all for us.  Like I said before, I am a picky eater, mostly because I have some food allergies and sensitivities, and I had no problems eating very well at the Mana Island Resort.

The Experience

The Alexandra on the Pacific staff Linda and Wayne provided such professional and friendly service, which made our stay more than pleasant and relaxing, we were very impressed not only with the Mooloolaba Accommodation but also with how close the shops, beach and activities were. We have stayed at a number of different resorts on the Coast, but we’ve found the resort we’ll be coming back to from now on!
The rooms were clean, and nice and bright, and the facilities were above par for what you would expect from 4 1/2 star accommodation.  The resort has a large range of facilities, although we didn’t get a chance to try all of them:
  • Bar/lounge
  • Gym facilities
  • Swimming Pool (heated!)
  • Elevator
  • Sauna/Spa
  • Tour Desk

Where is the Resort?

Alexandra on the Pacific is located on the Cnr of Buderim Avenue & the Mooloolaba/Alexandra Headland Esplanade which is on the lovely Sunshine Coast, Queensland.
