It wasn't that long ago that Surfers Paradise was considered the heart of the Gold Coast, but all that has changed. In the last few years, Broadbeach tourism has really taken off, and it's easy to see why.
This lovely leafy suburb perfectly combines seaside charm with modern sophistication, offering something for everyone, from fish and chips on the beach to gourmet cuisine.
And when it comes to holiday accommodation in Broadbeach, the choice is very impressive. Many visitors choose to stay at the AAA 4-Star rated Phoenician Resort and, once they've tried it, they usually return!
Luxury Accommodation, Affordable Prices
Friends of mine tried the resort recently, so I asked them what made it so good. They said there were several factors, the main one being that the Phoenician offers luxury accommodation at an affordable price. That meant they could afford to make it a family holiday, whilst also enjoying a little adult indulgence.
They also found the location to be ideal, just 100m from the patrolled beach - a lifesaver when you have youngsters - but also within easy walking distance of the restaurants and shops.
As for the resort's facilities, they were very happy - especially as there are both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, plus spas and a sauna.
Close To Theme Parks
Of course, when you have children, no trip to the Gold Coast is complete without visiting at least one theme park! Not only did my friends find it easy to reach the theme parks from their accommodation in Broadbeach but, with the great value family passes, there was plenty of money left over for treats.
And after a long and busy day at the theme parks, how good was it to just relax by the resort pool the next day, and enjoy an early supper on the apartment's private balcony. Perfection!
