Family Accommodation on the Gold Coast

Comfort, space and facilities are important for any stress-free family holiday.

We’ve put together a list of five serviced apartments that deliver on all three, and so much more,  to make life a little easier when you take your next family holiday on the Gold Coast.

Location: Palm Avenue, Surfers Paradise

Overview: Split your family time between the rolling waves of Surfers Paradise Beach and the heated swimming facilities on site. Enjoy easy access to an abundance of eateries at Surfer’s or via light rail access to Broadbeach, or cosy up after a busy day with meal prep using the fully equipped kitchen.        

Family perks: The kids will love the lagoon pool, sandy beach and water slide at Mantra Crown Towers. Plus, the kids will have hours of fun searching for buried treasure aboard a pirate ship! With the kids distracted, parents can while away the hours in a shady spot, poolside.

Location: The Esplanade, Surfers Paradise 

Overview: Step it up a notch with premium Gold Coast accommodation at Peppers Soul Surfers Paradise. The family will be impressed with the eye watering views across the sparkling Pacific Ocean and Surfers Paradise Beach below.

Just a hop, skip and jump from the warm sand, the Esplanade and ocean will be your playground during your stay. There’s plenty to occupy the gang on site too with indoor and outdoor pools, gym and shaded BBQ area. 

Family perks: Spread out with expansive 2 and 3 bedroom apartments including kitchen and laundry, and did we mention the uninterrupted ocean views?

Location: Alexandra Avenue, Broadbeach 

Overview: This tropical oasis is worth a visit, particularly for those with youngsters that live for playgrounds. Splash about in the 2 large lagoon pools with cascading waterfalls and let the kids roam around in the wading pool.

The playground will have the little ones hooked as they wind through the equipment and shoot down the slide. You’re sure to want to peacefully retreat to a comfy room with fully equipped kitchen and put your feet up, kicking back on your private balcony following a busy day of play. 

Family Perks: Pacific Fair Shopping Centre is only a short stroll away, a real gem for any family essentials and a paradise for parents simply needing some retail therapy.
