ULTIQA Shearwater Resort was the perfect place for our 3 night stay. The communication from the resort was fantastic and the staff and management very helpful and friendly. Our studio apartment on level 2 had great views and even though it was a bit dated, it was very clean. You can’t beat the location. We could walk to most things but a proper grocery store is a short drive away. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

Great place to stay Helpful staff on check in and the welcome basket was fabulous. The only negative I would say is the pool access for older customers or people with joint replacements like myself is very difficult. No grab rail and only two steps then it goes to 1.5m

Property was amazing! Been 10 odd years since we were there last and it still lives up to its good memories. In close walking distance to everywhere! Staff are lovely and the property was nice and clean. Fairly priced as well Only complaint would be the bed sheets, the quilt was wrapped with 2 flat sheets and made it awkward to stay warm at night. Other than that, will definetely be coming back!

Annoying checkin.
Having to check in online is saving the reception the time and effort and adding to my time. When I had issues the reception did not help and required me to do it on my phone at the reception. Annoying! There was no fore warning of construction in and around the location. This really annoys me as well. There was no convenient place for our case to open it so we opened it on the floor and had to step over it. Breakfast was ok however basic or on the cheap side. Central location to everything and great view. I just think they could do a little better.
