I was talking to a colleague the other day, who said she had been to the Gold Coast only once before, and had stayed in Surfers Paradise, and would never go back! I asked why, and she said it was all "too busy and glittery".
Time for a coffee and a chat, I thought, while I proved to her that 'all that glitters' is not the Gold Coast!
Stylish And Family Friendly
A lot of people seem to be under the impression that all Gold Coast resort areas are the same, but they're really not. Take Broadbeach, for example. This lovely leafy suburb combines pristine patrolled beaches, with lush green parks and a massive system of wonderful navigable waterways - a far cry from the all night parties at Surfers!
Don't get me wrong, there's plenty to entertain you in Broadbeach, it's just, well, a little more refined, and family-friendly.
When it comes to Broadbeach accommodation, I generally recommend the Phoenician Resort, for several reasons. For starters, it's just 100m from the beach, and walking distance from some of the best restaurants on the Gold Coast!
Close to Everything
There is plenty to entertain you nearby, yet it's centrally placed for those wishing to visit the theme parks, or head out to the glorious Gold Coast hinterland.
The apartments here are impeccable: choose from spacious one and two-bedroom configurations, knowing that whichever one you choose, you will still benefit from private balconies, fully equipped kitchens, private laundry, air-conditioning, security system and more.
Hot Deals
There's a lot of accommodation in Broadbeach but the Phoenician tops the bill. And that's largely because of its magnificent resort facilities, including both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, spas, sauna, gym, games room . . . you name it, they have it.

But what else would you expect from a state-of-the-art, AAA 4 Star rated resort? Hot deals? Yes, the Phoenician has those, too! In fact, that colleague of mine just booked one!
