Kirra Vista 4 - Beachfront & Ground Floor

10/10 Excellent

"Nice apartment by the beach. Good kitchen utilities and nice bathroom. Could do with a new fridge though - old one doesn't fit the luxury of the rest. But don't understand how you pay so much and need to bring your own sheets. This sucks actually because there is Noone who goes on the holidays and brings own linen. And sorry hiring is not an option as price is over the top. Thank you though"

Luxury Beachside Courtyard resort apartment 2 br 2 bath Family sized, beach 1min

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous location, apartment and amenities "

Kirra Beach Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Tv in bedroom we couldn’t operate, screen just showed google tv, we don’t haya google tv account so couldn’t use it. Main living room tv was a bit clunky to use, combination of using two remotes , but figured out, would suggest loading Netflix for guests, as foxtel doesn’t have much to offer most people anymore. We cancelled our foxtel over a year ago after not using it for years"
