But at the point of my arrival, I got to know there are 4.5 optiion and 4.0 option which Expedia have not provided. Pictures at Expedia were those of 4.5 option. 4.0 option was completely different room which I do not want to recomend. Anyhow, people were so nice and location was good. ##### chung yeon Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### sally Jan 21, 2022 The property is in a beautiful location but for the money I spent I expected the apartment to be a little cleaner and newer…. It was not 4 1/2 stars. ##### sally Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 5, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent beachfront Gold Coast apartment Staying at the Dorchester on the Beach was an excellent choice for our three night family getaway. The location was amazing - looking straight out across the ocean we could see and hear the ocean from both balconies. Three roomy bedrooms and three toilets and bathrooms were most appreciated. Kitchen had everything we needed and more and the laundry was clean with a new front loading washer and dryer. Even though the reception was rarely open, the after hours check in was seamless and efficient. We would definitely stay here again for the right price. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Calvin, Vancouver Canada Mar 23, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We couldn't have been happier with our place. It had a very well appointed kitchen and the furniture was very comfortable to take in the most amazing view. The building is right on the beach and just a short walk to the eateries in Surfers Paradise. Would definately recommend. ##### Calvin Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### WESLEY Mar 8, 2020 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice penthouse I stayed in penthouse.

Was searching for a hotel for my solo travel. Ocean views of the apartments helped me to make my decision quick. Booked 3 bedroom 4 star ocean view apartment. When I arrive my check in was very easy and pleasant. Karen gave me lot's of necessary information about the area and the apartment. My apartment was exactly what I was expecting. Stunning view, spotless clean, spacious rooms, laundry and a fully equiped kitchen with amazing view. Ocean view is breath-taking and walk to beach in no time. Outdoor swimming pool is heated so you enjoy the warm pool when there is wind outside. Easy beach walk to grocery store and restaurants in max 10mn. If you are looking for safe and family oriented stay, Dorchester on the Beach is %100 what you searching for. Karen and Michael is super friendly.They made my solo holiday so great and made me feel like I am at home. At the end, I didn't want to come back and I extended my stay for 1 extra day :) I did have a chance to see most of the different apartments. They are all stunning and especially 4.5 stars are very luxuries. I will advise this apartments everyone now and in the future and I am looking forward to come back for another retreat in this heavenly place. I can't even thank enough to Karen & Michael being extremely warm and welcoming to me. Absolutely fantastic. See you soon my dear new friends ! ##### Ekim Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jul 16, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location and can walk straight onto the beach.
