Had a wonderful stay at Surf Parade Resort! Came for the Gold Coast marathon & this was the perfect place to recover with the pool, spa & sauna on site. The view from our apartment of the ocean & hinterland was breathtaking & far beyond what we expected. Would definitely recommend & we will return

It was a pleasant stay and I got a special visitor who flew in to say ‘Hi’. The accommodation is suitable for family stay but would be too big for a solo traveller like myself.

Apartment very clean, roomy & had the basics, but is in need of an update. The blinds do not close properly in the lounge room. A little noisy next to the lift as well. Otherwise was an OK stay close to the beach & transport.

The apartment was well maintained, clean and comfortable. It felt light and airy and had views out to the hinterland from the balcony and bedroom. It’s halfway between Cavill and Broadbeach and is relatively quiet with beach, coffee and a small grocer (Broadbeach Grocer) all a few minutes walk. Close to bus and tram stop. Lovely pool area and tennis court. Enjoyed our stay.

We had a great time and the Hotel was clean and the staff very friendly, however if you enjoy the sunshine and request as we did an ocean view, then you may have to look for somewhere that is not directly behind 3 huge Towers which block all the morning sun out. Beach front next time for us...

LOVED IT!!
About a 15 min walk to surfers paradise however only 3 min walk to the tram which costs $1.50 and gets you there in less than 5 mins. Also just 2 min walk to the beach
Gym onsite wasn’t great, only 4 pieces of equipment.
Lovely spacious apartment and balcony
FREE TENNIS

An older property of service apartments, some with residents and some holiday go-ers. Everything was clean and comfortable enough, good air conditioning split systems,fans in each room, nice balcony. Parking was free underground and convenient. Was great for a 5 night stay noting there is no room service. Wouldn’t stay longer than that. But all in all a good cost effective option in a decent area between Surfers and Broadbeach.

Loved it
I arrived after a heavy downpour which left me saturated. Upon checkin, the lovely young lady helped me with a towel to help dry myself off and gave me an umbrella for the rest of my day. Please give her a payrise. Checkin was so easy (just the way it should be). The room was lovely and the location perfect. I felt very safe and the rooms were quiet too.
