Our Melbourne stay
The overall experience was very good with the only issue being the induction process to gain access to the amenities. We tried several times to get a booking on our first full day [Monday Oct 21] at the property but this became very confusing with no real assistance around the booking process from the front desk. We finally came across a lady who was very helpful but as we had plans for the Wednesday evening could not book in to this session. A suggestion would be to allow access to the app prior to arrival so that the induction booking process could be streamlined.

Terrible change of our unit
The day we were flying into Melbourne I got a call from the company managing the unit to let me know our 3 bedroom unit we had reserved 6 months earlier was now not available and they had rebooked our part of 6 adults in a one bedroom unit. No opitons available for 3 bedrooms. They said it was an error on their part and promised to look into it. They did refund our money but of course at the last minute there were not any good options available

No access to gym or pool
I would not stay here again. The gym and pool are inaccessible, with access requiring a two-hour class offered only twice a week and with only 10 spots offered each class, it fills up weeks in advance. The check-in process is inconvenient and poorly managed, involving a 10-minute walk to a convenience store to retrieve keys—an ordeal with luggage. The unit provides only one fob for a three-bedroom space, restricting flexibility for groups. The beds and pillows are uncomfortable, the air conditioning is controlled by a timer that is locked by the owners, so it only stays on for about an hour (not ideal in Melbourne's hot summer), and the TV shuts off every 10 minutes. The lack of bar stools and overall uninviting atmosphere made it feel more like a place to crash than to stay.Also one night there was pee all over the elevator floor. Overall a disappointing stay for a condo that is advertised as “luxurious”.
