Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
We've stayed a couple of times now and both times we've had no complaints. Views are terrific, clean rooms, well looked after grounds, staff are friendly and with the beach and Surf Life Club across the road makes it the ideal position. Just far enough out from the center of town with an easy 10 minute walk or head down to Broadbeach which is just on 20 minutes. You won't need a car as the tram stop is only a couple of minutes away and the public transport system is so easy to use.

We stayed in a high-level apartment which had amazing views up and down the coast and across to the hinterland. Acapulco is an older building but the apartment and facilities were all clean and well maintained. Steve was extremely welcoming and helpful and gave us the rundown on whale watching and recommending Northcliffe surf club, which is right across the road and has fabulous food and drinks. Overall we had a fantastic stay at a great value rate and so highly recommend Breakfree Acapulco.

Hotel was older but well looked after. My only complaint is the lack of air-conditioning and ceiling fans. 1 air conditioner for a 2 bedroom suite isn't enough, especially with only 1 ceiling fan too. Plus the halls and elevator needed some kind of air as well.

Location was perfect. Value for money for our particular apartment compared to other family members staying at the same time was well below average! Our apartment was clean however VERY outdated and in desperatew need of a renovation ( looked like ti had never been renovated since its initial construction 40 years ago ). Be carfeul how you koo as this very much dictates what quality of room you end up with. Booking online is not clear nor concise regarding what type of beach view you get. I was annoyed to pay the same for other apartments which i would rate 10/10 for quality when mine was 1/10.. On site parking was managed sloppy. i didnt like the fact we had to empty our own rubbish either from the room when we left. Bedding was inadequte, ceiling fans were too noisy to turn on, needed air con in the bedroom not just in the lounge area. Just not value for money AT ALL!!!! Very disappointing!!!!

There wasn't Aircon in the bedrooms, so it wasn't pleasant when sleeping. In our QLD climate, it is a must to have Air Conditioning. The lounge area was a good size, however, the TV was too small for that size room. The children's bedroom had a broken clothes rack. Also, the children's bathroom had no curtains for the window.

We had a very nice stay, the rooms were very clean and the facilities were immaculatly clean and maintained. In a great location with easy access to beach, restuarants and Tram. The views are uninterupted from upper floors, yet lower floors would still have good views of the beach and hinterland.

Fantastic location and facilities. Close to everything. Rooms are always clean with the most amazing views.
Having two pools is a major draw card.
Only drawback is lack of aircon in main bedroom and no fan in the second bedroom.

It was a pleasure to stay with Acapulco. They had good old fashioned service which was a pleasant change from staying with private Airbnb owners that think they are doing you the favour by letting their unit to you. It was a very professional experience and they had a nice personalised thoughtful touch in leaving Easter Eggs by the door on Easter.

Love this property! We have stayed here most years since 2012. The location is 5*, the apartments are spacious and clean. Many have been updated over the years, and are very comfortable. Most apartments have ocean views, particularly from level 6 and up. Full kitchens, great pools and outdoor BBQ areas, and of course the Northcliffe surf club over the road. Easy walk to Surfers, and light rail at the end of the street to go further afield.
