Not my vibe
Hotel is dated and in need of some deep cleaning - my bathroom had cob webs in the shower and hairs on the walls. Front desk staff are so friendly. Speed of service is nonexistent in the bar area by the pool. Black out blinds are great but then the bathroom windows light up the place.

Not the best.
I honestly don’t think I would stay there again, the road traffic was horrible very loud, the rooms need to be sound proof. The staff were great just a horrible room experience. So if you love road noise, loud cars then it’s for you, if you want quite don’t bother.

Vibe is worth the wait, my 1st stay enjoyable.
The wifi was the best I've ever used in any hotel before!! It was so easy, quick & most of all no time consuming process with having to enter a number of pass codes to enter to access the wifi. The only thing I didn't love about it was the room service wasn't very good but it was a speedy delivery none the less.

On arrival to the Vibe hotel we loved the lobby and public areas. That’s where our postive experience ended. On arrival to our room the first thing we noticed was the absence of a sofa. As we were staying for 5 nights this inclusion was part of the reason we booked this hotel. The image on Expedia still shows a sofa in the room. When we asked at reception about this we were advised they were removed and her exact words were “you wouldn’t want to sit on them anyway” Unfortunately we did not get her name. No apology just that she would see if maintenance could find one. They obviously never did as we never heard another word. Cleaning was touch and go and the rooms are in serious need of an upgrade. Dented fridge, mouldy bathroom. The dining table and chairs are dated and uncomfortable to sit on for periods of time (as we had no sofa) there was only one glass, one wine glass and one coffee cup in the cupboard. The public areas are great and well kept. Great coffee on site and close to everything in Surfers but unfortunately we will never be back-definitely not the standard we had hoped for.
