Great location, parking easy if you have a small car and the apartment was clean and tidy. Yes there were signs of age and sea air erosion but didn't deter from our enjoyment of staying here.
Its called Sandbox for a reason you can't help but bring sand inside, it's practically on the beach which was totally what we wanted!
Thanks Andre, we had the best time!

Dishes were dirty in cupboard, miss match of odd pots and pans but all were missing teflon and just yuck.
Screen door came off in my hand and overall very musty.
If you have a large car I hope your parking skills are good because its hight and hard to get in and out.
Some positives
1. So close to the beach
2.Good pillows
3. walkable to the shops

The worst stay in my life!
I am writing this review to warn potential guests about the misleading practices and poor conditions at Sand Box Apartments in Tugan.
## Hidden Fees and Deceptive Pricing
Upon booking, I was charged the advertised rate of $133.40 for one night. However, I was then hit with an additional $95 cleaning fee that was never mentioned during the booking process. This represents a 71% increase from the advertised price and feels like a deliberate attempt to mislead customers.
## "Luxury" Claims Are Completely False
The property is advertised as "Luxury," but the reality is starkly different:
- **Walls and furniture**: Heavily stained throughout the apartment, including the dining table
- **Cleanliness**: Thick dust accumulated in every corner of every room
- **Pest issues**: Cockroaches present in the shower area
- **Air conditioning**: Visibly mouldy and disgusting condition
- **Amenities**: No Wi-Fi despite being advertised as available
## Location Issues
The apartment is positioned directly under the Gold Coast Airport flight path, creating constant noise disruption. Combined with extremely thin walls between units, guests can expect no peace or quiet during their stay.
## Final Thoughts
The $95 cleaning fee is clearly not being used for its intended purpose, as evidenced by the poor state of cleanliness throughout the property. This appears to be nothing more than a money grab from the property owner.
Save yourself the disappointment and hidden costs - look elsewhere for accommodation. The Sand Box Apartments fall far short of even basic standards, let alone the "luxury" experience they claim to provide.
