If you’re looking for Gold Coast accommodation specials, here’s a tip: check out the luxury accommodation market first.

When you’re on a budget, it’s easy to think that you should only look at ‘budget’ accommodation. However, on the Gold Coast, you can access great deals on every type of holiday accommodation.

Gold Coast Holiday Rentals

With autumn upon us, and winter on the way, you’ll find some amazing online deals on Gold Coast holiday rentals, including 4-Star resorts. In fact, the longer you can stay, the cheaper it gets! Take the Phoenician Resort Broadbeach, for example.

There are great deals available during May, June, July and August and you’ll also receive free unlimited Wi-Fi, too. That’s hard to beat!



You’re thinking, there must be a catch! Actually, there isn’t. Due to its wonderful climate, it’s business as usual for the Gold Coast all year round.

Another amazing experience at this time of year is an early morning hot air balloon ride. Floating up above the city and hinterland, you can see for miles and make the most of the crisp morning air.

After the recent rainfall, the Gold Coast Hinterland is stunning, with lush rainforests and tumbling waterfalls to delight all the senses. Don’t forget to stop off at the village tea-rooms for coffee and cake or a delicious hot chocolate.

Broadbeach Luxury Apartments More Popular Than Ever


Remember when buying a holiday home used to be all the rage? Or how about timeshare? It’s funny how our tastes change over time.

These days, rather than buy their own holiday house in Broadbeach, most people prefer to book accommodation in hotels and resorts. It’s understandable when you think about it; who wants to spend their annual holiday doing maintenance and gardening on their second home?

Holiday House Broadbeach

Since the rise of Broadbeach luxury apartments, holiday-makers and business travellers have discovered they really can find everything they need there. In some cases, I’ve heard friends say their holiday apartment was bigger than their own home!

If you pick the right resort, you’ll find your apartment has everything from a fully equipped kitchen and laundry facilities to a separate living area and more. Yet you can still score some amazing deals when you book online.


Broadbeach luxury apartments give youfreedom and flexibility. Come and go as you please, without the expectation that you’ll be back by a certain time. And isn’t that the best thing about holidays?

The Gold Coast offers visitors so much more than just the theme parks for which it is famous. And some of the best features are out of town, in the lush Hinterland region. You’ll definitely want to take a whole day for this trip, as there’s so much to see and do, all year round.

Broadbeach Luxury Apartments

The Gold Coast is famous for its many great events, too. Traditionally, many people would drive there just for the event and then drive home afterwards, copping all that traffic. These days, the savvy event-goer books Broadbeach luxury apartments and makes a night/weekend of it.

So, next time you fancy going to a music festival or sports event on the Gold Coast, why not turn it into a mini vacation and spoil yourself?

Broadbeach apartments are a great alternative to a hotel or motel, or even a holiday home. They are conveniently located yet still offer space, peace and privacy. Most people say they prefer staying in Broadbeach, as opposed to Surfers Paradise, especially when travelling with children.

Resorts offer the right mix of luxury accommodation, quality fixtures and fittings and great facilities. Even though you will be staying so close to the beach, it’s still good to know you can enjoy a dip in one of the pools or try the spa or sauna. Many people like the idea of getting fit on holiday, and that’s a breeze at the Phoenician Resort, as there’s also an onsite gym.

Another big bonus here, especially if you’re on a budget, is the fully equipped kitchens. Whilst the huge array of eateries in the area could keep you busy every night, it’s nice to know you can relax in your apartment with a meal if you don’t feel like going out.

There’s so much to enjoy on the Gold Coastand Broadbeach Apartments make it easy. If you love the beach, it’s right there. Shopping? On the doorstep. Wining and dining? No problem. Nature? Just head to the adjoining suburb and enjoy an eco kayak tour of the waterways.

Discovering the best Gold Coast Restaurants

The Gold Coast may be famous for its beaches, theme parks and casino but that’s not all. It’s also home to some of the best dining experiences in Australia. A mecca for top chefs, the region offers every type of cuisine, from humble fish and chips to degustation banquets.

Gold Coast restaurants have really upped the ante in recent years as food and wine holidays have become more popular. With our tastes becoming more varied and global, the demand is there for all the flavours of the world.

Gold Coast Restaurants

Good restaurants in the Gold Coast also know that visitors want good value and, with the region’s amazing climate, more alfresco dining. Hosting the 2018 Commonwealth Games was the perfect excuse to give the area’s main dining precinct a multi-million-dollar makeover, providing plenty of choice, pedestrianized outdoor dining and street entertainment.

Themed restaurants are also popular, with Dracula’s Cabaret Gold Coast one of the longest running and most popular. This is really a dining experience with a difference!

If you like a good square meal combined with a night of entertainment, you’ll probably want to book in for the Australian Outback Spectacular. Your ticket includes a delicious dinner as well as an action-packed show featuring Australian animals, songs and stunts.

Good Restaurants in Gold Coast

The best Gold Coast restaurants aren’t confined to the beach strip either. Take a short drive or a tour out to the Hinterland and you’ll discover another world. Exploring ancient rain forests and bush walking in the mountains will give you a good appetite; that’s when it’s time to head to one of the many mountaintop eateries and indulge.

If you’d like to find out more about the region’s local produce, book yourself in for a farm gate or winery tour and tasting. From excellent wines to delicious local cheeses, you’ll be filling your bags ready for the trip home.

Great Deals on Broadbeach Luxury Apartments

There are so many different types of holiday accommodation to choose from these days; there really is something for everyone. From campsites and cabins to Broadbeachluxury apartments, Gold Coast holiday rentals are available and affordable now.

If you’re a little confused about what type of accommodation to book, here are some guidelines:

LOCATION

Are you a beach or bush person? Would you like to securely park your car and walk to everything? Do you plan to take some tours? It’s worth asking yourself all these questions when choosing your location.



Most people say they want to be within easy reach of everything, but they still want somewhere peaceful and private. If that’s the case, you’ll find somewhere like Surfers Paradise too busy, whilst several other locations are a bit remote. Broadbeach is a great choice because it pretty much ticks all the boxes: it’s close to everything, including the beach, but still retains the peaceful leafy feel of years gone by.

FAMILY vs COUPLE

Depending on the location, accommodation for families and couples can be very different. Families generally want to be close to everything with lots of activities for the kids; couples, on the other hand, may wish to be close to restaurants and bars.

Broadbeach luxury apartments are great because they suit both groups, particularly somewhere like the Phoenician Resort. Close to the beach, activities and attractions, it’s ideal for families, especially as the apartments feature fully equipped kitchens. However, located within walking distance of the best dining strip on the Gold Coast, it’s perfect for couples, too.

PRICE

In today’s competitive market, it is possible to get great deals on Gold Coast holiday rentals when you shop online. Some of the resorts offer incredible prices, with big discounts available on 4-Star accommodation.

Simply click on the resort’s website and open the Specials page to see what’s available.

Broadbeach Holiday Accommodation Is Perfect for Water-Lovers

With December approaching and the Gold Coast heating up, it’s the perfect destination for those who love their water sports. And to make the idea even sweeter, there are currently some sizzling resort accommodation deals online.

The Gold Coast attracts domestic and international visitors all year round, due to its glorious sub-tropical climate and around 300 days of sunshine. The average sea temperature is 25.4 - 27.1°C - just perfect for water-lovers.

Holiday Accommodation in Broadbeach

Also perfect for water-lovers is the 70km of coastline and the huge network of peaceful waterways at Broadbeach. No wonder holiday accommodation in Broadbeach is so popular. The water is always sparkling blue.



There are plenty of beaches to choose from here, depending on what you like doing. You’ll find protected patrolled family-friendly beaches at Broadbeach. For amazing surfing, take a short trip to Burleigh Heads, Kirra Beach, Narrow neck Beach and Coolangatta.

Your Broadbeach holiday accommodation puts you in the best position to enjoy plenty more water-based activities. We mentioned those waterways - around 270km of canals to be exact, and these are ideal for kayaking and stand up paddle boarding. A guided eco kayak tour is a great way of enjoying the canals and the birdlife.

If you’re more into adrenalin-charged water sports like kite surfing and jet boats, that’s all here too. Not to mention scuba diving, deep-sea fishing, snorkelling and more. Too much? Well, how about a romantic sunset cruise with your loved one?

How about exploring a shipwreck? Just 800m off South port Spit you’ll find the wreck of the Scottish Prince, a 64-metre barque ship that was carrying a cargo of whisky when it sank! Now that’s something to look forward to!
