Everything

I think that having a family pool and second pool, they could make the pool with the bar exclusive for adults and no children

This was our second time at Essence and we found the 2 bedroom apartment very comfortable for a mother/daughter getaway. The apartment is a generous size with both bedrooms being comfortable. The location is fantastic as it is very close to the village and the beach. Great restaurants are close by.

It is disappointing that for a five day stay the apartment is not serviced at least once. Simple things like changing the towels and replenishing items such as tea, coffee, toilet paper would be appreciated. The apartment is lovely but pricey. You are able to take your towels down to have them replaced but this is a bit tedious.

Great location, step outside the gate to the supermarket, pharmacy, bottleshop & hotel restaurant. Cross the road for shopping and restaurants or walk a little further to the very well patrolled beach. Great little gym, beautifully styled studio room with a large bathroom and a large balcony. Lovely sunsets over the biosphere. Beautiful sunrise on the beach if you get up very early. And I always love an in room coffee machine and their blend was as good as they claim. Lovely attention to detail with all amenities in the room.

Pool area is quite small (I didn't check out the other family pool) it got crowded on Saturday but was OK at other times. Had a private sunset swim on Friday

The privacy of the complex, the staff were phenomenal, area was clean, close to restaurants and IGA, rooms were beautiful, gym was great and service of having QR codes for poolside drinks and food was amazing.

The only two things I can say is that - there’s only two small pools on the complex where there’s multiple apartments and holiday homes so it doesn’t take long for the beds to fill up or it feel not so relaxing when there’s kids in the pool. Also multiple mornings there weren’t any towels in the gym for people to use and maintain cleanliness.

We were so pleased we took a chance staying at Essence. We were originally looking to stay in Noosa and after one afternoon drive through Noosa we were so happy with our decision to stay in Peregian Beach. Essence is a beautiful hotel, the gated grounds, beautiful pools and calming neutral rooms has is feeling like we were staying at an exclusive resort worth double the money. The staff were so lovely and the addition of the turn down service in the hotel was an unexpected surprise. We have already recommended to our friends and will definitely be back.

The only thing I can think of would have been bath sheet sized towels for the showers and pools. Other than that, we were so happy with our stay.

What a beautiful place! The hotel had a luxurious feel to it and was quiet and spotlessly clean. It was in a great location near a beautiful beach and shops. The check in staff were so friendly. Loved the pool and bar.

There were a few children splashing and jumping in the main pool rather than the family pool which took away from the relaxing retreat feel the hotel is trying to give. Two days running we had to ask for things that had been forgotten by housekeeping. This seems fussy but it was an expensive stay.

This hotel was fantastic. The location was so unexpected and the area was so nice, you instantly felt relaxed. The room was great, loads of space including a balcony with a swing chair. Really comfy beds and the bathroom was great too. A quick walk to the supermarket, pub, great restaurants, and the beautiful beach too, everything we wanted and out of the crowds of people in Noosa.

There are 2 pools that looked bigger in the pics than in real life but the resort was quiet so we didn't battle with other guests for pool space so that was lucky.

Did not have breakfast and was little disappointed that the location of my the hotel was behind a IGI supermarket, with all the reviews about the hotel and then to have it next to supermarket and their loading dock was a let down.

Received a call from receptionist a few days before we arrived and was told that for extra $50 we can have a room with beautiful sunset, well if they did not give the room facing the so call sunset, you would be facing a supermarket and their car park, which is like looking at a industrial warehouse.

The property was beautifully designed and incredibly comfortable. All the little details like robes and bottle openers had been considered. The bed was incredibly comfortable and I slept well. The staff were friendly and welcoming from the moment I arrived. Designated parking bays for each guest was great as well.

As a solo traveller is lacked a bit of atmosphere - as the public spaces were often empty. The only other thing I could comment on was that the TV remote control was a little unresponsive (not unusual in hotels) but that is the only fault I can pick

Room very comfortable and very nice pool. Very close to the beautiful beach and amazing restaurant for breakfast (Outer Square). Very nice gym (and very easy after hours check in process)

The only small thing (and it may be normal in this area because of the humidity): there were small bugs on the ceiling near the shower in the bathroom (nothing to disgusting), but it may take 3 minutes to clean to make everything perfect :) The view from may not be the nicest (but who really cares?)
