Perched on a university campus in Southport, this aparthotel puts you close to beaches, nightlife and theme-park country. It’s a short drive to the main shopping and entertainment strip and local hospitals. Expect quick access to the coast and about 43 km to the nearest major airport.

Stylish studios and apartments with kitchen facilities, private balconies and simple, functional living/dining areas. Rooms include refrigerators, stovetops, in-room TVs, ceiling fans and separate sitting or work desks for longer stays. The vibe is relaxed campus-chic with easy self-catering options.

Swim in a 15 m outdoor pool, lounge on sunbeds and fire up poolside BBQs. Stay active on the half-size basketball court or hit the table tennis and pool table in the common lounge. There’s a library, picnic and BBQ areas, a garden outlook, tour/ticket assistance, a convenience store for basics and free self parking.

A business centre is on site and wired high-speed internet is available (surcharge). Dry cleaning, laundry facilities and free self parking make longer or work-focused stays easier.

An on-site restaurant and a coffee shop/café keep mornings and coffees covered. Cooked-to-order breakfasts are available for a fee, and the convenience store stocks basics for self-catering. Expect local flavours on the menu alongside grab-and-go options.
