Imperial Hotel Gold Coast
"The body gel and shampoo weren't replenished during cleaning, and I found myself in a tough spot when I wanted to shower but the bottles were empty."
Norfolk Luxury Beachfront Apartments Main Beach
"Best apartment for families, all rooms with beautiful ocean view are nice and clean. Great location which near beach and shops."
Sea World Resort
"Service is good as they meet our needs - getting milk, bath towels, strollers and luggage storage. This helps us to enjoy the Sea World park much much better"
Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Gold Coast
"Always a pleasure staying at the Sheraton. We had a minor noise issue from the room next door, but the team went above and beyond to find us another room so we could fully enjoy our stay. A short 30-second walk to the beach is all it takes to be completely blown away. Perfect choice for small families and couples looking for a relaxing getaway."
Bougainvillea Luxury Apartments
Pacific Views Resort
"Amazing location right on the beach. And friendly staff like Raenae 👍🏽"
The Waterford on Main Beach
"We had a fantastic stay. The standout feature was the view—it was absolutely incredible, with an almost 180-degree panoramic outlook over the ocean. We would honestly come back just for the view alone. The apartment was spotlessly clean and had some thoughtful touches, including a Nespresso machine and milk left in the fridge for our arrival, which we really appreciated. The beach is right out the front and is beautiful and supervised. It's about a 20-minute walk to Surfers Paradise, but we actually preferred Main Beach. It's quieter, feels more prestigious, and is just as walkable with nicer places to eat. The staff were excellent—very friendly, responsive, and happy to share helpful local tips. One thing to note is that if you're arriving on a Sunday, you'll need to arrange check-in in advance, as there's no one at the front desk. However, the communication was pretty responsive and well organized that this wasn't a problem at all. Overall, we highly recommend this property. It's a wonderful place to stay, and we'd happily return, especially for those unforgettable views."
The Meriton on Main Beach
"Didn't like the fact it was not one of the Meriton chain style places . Was very old looking but large rooms .. Shouldnt be advertised like the Meriton"
Oscar on Main Beach Resort
"This place is wonderful. The location is fabulous- walk to beach, walk to shops. So close to both. The facilities are wonderful and the apartments are large and lovely. The staff are also extremely helpful and everyone in the building that we came across are very happy. We have stayed at a a lot of places on the Gold Coast and I think our family votes this one the best! Thank you"

Ocean Sands Resort
"Thhe apartment was very spacious, bigger than places we have stayed at before. It was clean and had all the modern appliances to make it very comfortable. Perfect location to shops and restaurants. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Definitely going back again!"
Chidori Court
"Fabulous stay. Extremely well equipped apartment...even had weighing scales! 2 bed 2 bath and very spacious. Very comfortable and a real home from home. Helpful, friendly reception. Pleasant pool and BBQ area. Main Beach is a very upmarket area and Tedder Avenue is the main drag and literally minutes from the apartment, as is the beach in the other direction. It's about a 30 minute flat, paved walk along the beach path to Surfers Paradise. The location was perfect. It was relatively quiet although there is a major building project just down the road that looks like it will be ongoing for a while yet. However you don't expect to come to the Gold Coast without finding active building projects!! We would definitely stay here again if in the area."
