From the moment you step in, the hotel exudes comfort and privacy. The seated check-in desks give a nice personal touch upon arrival. I was lucky to be upgraded to a penthouse suite for my one night stay. The suite was simply “wow”. The attention to detail is wonderful - I was pleasantly surprised by bath salts arriving at just the right time as well as peppermint tea to wind down after a long day. The bathrooms were, like the rest of the suite, spotless and stocked with all the necessities and little luxuries such as hair straighteners. There was plentiful space to relax, including a wraparound balcony with great views across Broadbeach and a spacious living area. I didn’t have time to experience all of the hotel amenities on this short visit, and can’t wait to return to see all that it has to offer. ##### Larissa Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### shae Jun 9, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities awesome ##### shae Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Crown Towers Resort Private Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Crown-Towers-Resort-Private-Apartments.h26869579.Hotel-Information) > - [Mari Court Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Mari-Court-Resort.h1971478.Hotel-Information) > - [Stunning Sea Vue Blue Views over Laguna Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Sunshine-Coast-Hotels-Stunning-Sea-Vue-Blue-Views-Over-Laguna-Bay.h109910568.Hotel-Information) > - [Mantra Mooloolaba Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Sunshine-Coast-Hotels-Mantra-Mooloolaba-Beach.h554654.Hotel-Information) > - [Gold Coast Airport Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Gold-Coast-Airport-Motel.h7065321.Hotel-Information) > - [3BR, 2BA Unit with Pool, Parking & BBQ in Gold Coast](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Stunning-Unit-Hope-Island-Resort.h113370502.Hotel-Information) > - [Oaks Gold Coast Calypso Plaza Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Oaks-Gold-Coast-Calypso-Plaza-Suites.h2816385.Hotel-Information) > - [Hilton Surfers Paradise Hotel & Residences](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Hilton-Surfers-Paradise-Hotel-And-Residences.h4238660.Hotel-Information) > - [Calypso Plaza Unit 220 - Coolangatta Beachfront - Min. 3 Night Stays!](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-Calypso-Plaza-Unit-220-Coolangatta-Beachfront-Min-3-Night-Stays.h107827349.Hotel-Information) > - [The Sands](https://www.expedia.ca/Gold-Coast-Hotels-The-Sands.h23359935.Hotel-Information) > - [Pacific Sands Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Mackay-Hotels-Direct-Hotels-Pacific-Sands.h10424813.Hotel-Information) > - [The Currumbin Treehouse - Sauna/Ice bath/Float tank/Pool/Spa.
