A group of 8 of us stayed in 'The Beach House' 3 bedroom apartment over the Queens Birthday long weekend. We had a great stay here! The apartment was spacious and light. We loved the high ceilings, and little design details. The beds in all of the rooms were comfortable, and the kitchen was well equiped. The deck out the... More

The seawall apartments are a short walk from the main drag of Glenelg, directly across from the beach. The apartments are very well decked out, management is very friendly and accommodating. Parking is excellent if you have a premium car you dont want damaged by regular hotel car parks. Beds where a little hard from my taste but I'm sure... More

I stayed with a group of girlfriends in 'The Boathouse' to celebrate my 50th birthday. The location, accommodation and service were excellent. It was wonderful being so close to the shops, cafes and the sea. We had drinks on the deck as the sun set and it was perfect, followed by dancing inside. A wonderful stay.

Seawall Apartments are located on the main path alongside the beach giving the opportunity for easy sunrise or sunset viewing! Very quick walk into the Jetty Road precinct. We stayed in the 'Olive Mews' apartment. Our apartment was spacious and extremely clean. I particularly liked the high ceilings and that it was detached from the other buildings. The bedroom had...

I was so glad we chose to stay in Glenelg instead of than the Adelaide CBD. With a toddler in tow, it was lovely to be able to walk out the door and straight onto a seafront promenade, rather than negotiate busy streets and traffic. The Seawall is a short walk from the main Glenelg shops and restaurants, plus the... More

Great friendly service, clean rooms and a very nice view. We would have liked a bigger spa bath the one we had was a bit small for two tall people to fit into but great spa bath it was. Thankyou to the staff for a very enjoyable weekend away.
