Situated opposite Gold Coast Airport, this refurbished boutique motel offers 24-hour self check-in, free high speed Wi-Fi and a complimentary breakfast basket.

Thank you your services and lovely accommodation. We stayed in the number three unit on Sunday night and we were delighted with the breakfast basket, cleanliness and condition of the place. Its location was perfect. We are definitely recommending this place to others and will also stay again! Additionally, thank you for setting up the cot, we added an extra blanket to the base for comfort, and it was super handy not having to bring one with us on our journey.

Blue Palms By The Beach is a beachfront property located in Gold Coast, 200 metres from Broadbeach and 500 metres from Kurrawa Beach. The air-conditioned accommodation is 1.4 km from Mermaid Beach.

If I could give this apartment 6 stars I would. Exceptional hosts who went above and beyond to accomodate our early arrival and late checkout. Clean, fresh, modern, everything thought of. Location is mind blowing and really affordable.

Location great, clean, comfortable and modern. Friendly helpful tenants when we couldn’t work out how to use the elevators. Everything at the unit we needed for a one night stay. Communication was exceptional with instructions on how to access the property and post stay.

    The apartment was right on the beach with unobstructed views of the ocean. We were in a 3 bedroom ocean view apartment and was even better as there was a vacant block next door at the moment. Was walking distance to Northcliffe Surf Club which is nice for meals and brekkies. Also, walking distance to the heart of Surfers where there are tonnes of restaurants and activities.

    Aquarius is right on the beach and located perfectly to allow walking into Surfers in only 15mins. The views are truly stunning and with the balcony doors open you can relax and hear the ocean. The apartment was superb with absolutely everything you could need from a fully equiped kitchen to having beach chairs, body boards and beach umbrella. The indoor pool and spa area was also perfect.

    Apartments were beautiful and we could utilize the Langham facilities. The property is located right on the beachfront which was great and only 500m from a tram stop to go down to Broadbeach or up to surfers. The bed in my daughters room was super comfy, but the one in our room was a let down. Would have loved this stay if it was just us, but not the best with kids.

    Apartment was comfortable and loved being able to walk out the door and right on the beach. In a pretty good locatioon, though a bit of a walk to Surfers. Loved opening the doors and hearing the ocean.
