Experienced Magical Dinner Buffet Cruise with SeaWorld Cruises. Can't articulate enough what a memorable time we had. Fresh food, table, lighting & surrounds created a very moody romantic vibe. Enjoyed nightlights & Live Music on Top Deck. Superb!

Gold Coast is such a fun spot to holiday. Lots of shopping and food. Close to the beach, Sea World, amusement parks, and national parks. It is easy to navigate the local public transportation. I highly recommend checking out local hikes and vineyards

You have to pick your activities based on the time of day. Early morning or evening walks, swim in the middle of the day or stay in air conditioned buildings. The tropical heat, tempered water and nature fill views can't be beaten 😊

We went to the Flamingo show and were pleasantly surprised how good it was. Also the Vault Bar was amazing, with great food, and a chef who comes out and sings, plays piano, harmonica, guitar and sings everything from Opera to Elton John

A week is too little to describe the Gold Coast, however the theme parks is a must do if you haven't. Wet n Wild was bar far the most enjoyable, with SeaWorld a close second as you are able to enjoy the Sea Lions and Dolphin shows.

you'll need a car if you want to do things in Gold Coast. While the tram is great for up and down the strip if you want to visit the parks it's a bit of a commute and public transport doesn't appear a great option for that.

Parking is expensive (between $20- $40 depending where you go) and the free parks can be challenging to find and during the week can only be used for a certain amount of time without the abilty to purchase more.

Great place for individuals, families, couples. Great beaches for miles and the council here seems to look after the place really well. A clean friendly city
"Everything was excellent - great location. Only wish the outdoor pools were heated and there was an indoor way to heated spa so you don’t have to walk all the way In ten cold back to your room. "
"We had a great time and loved the convenience of staying beside the theme park and having a buffet breakfast. All this whilst also being able to see the sunset over water with the Gold Coast lights beneath "
