"The room is huge! The bed is also very large! One bed can easily fit one adult and one child. The water park inside the hotel is so much fun! Highly recommend for families traveling with children to Gold Coast!"

The Waterford on Main Beach
9.1 (28 reviews)

The Waterford on Main Beach ★★★★

📍 3482-3488 Main Beach Parade, Main Beach

"We had a fantastic stay. The standout feature was the view—it was absolutely incredible, with an almost 180-degree panoramic outlook over the ocean. We would honestly come back just for the view alone. The apartment was spotlessly clean and had some thoughtful touches, including a Nespresso machine and milk left in the fridge for our arrival, which we really appreciated. The beach is right out the front and is beautiful and supervised. It's about a 20-minute walk to Surfers Paradise, but we actually preferred Main Beach. It's quieter, feels more prestigious, and is just as walkable with nicer places to eat. The staff were excellent—very friendly, responsive, and happy to share helpful local tips. One thing to note is that if you're arriving on a Sunday, you'll need to arrange check-in in advance, as there's no one at the front desk. However, the communication was pretty responsive and well organized that this wasn't a problem at all. Overall, we highly recommend this property. It's a wonderful place to stay, and we'd happily return, especially for those unforgettable views."

Maldives Resort Main Beach, Gold Coast
8.4 (47 reviews)

Maldives Resort Main Beach, Gold Coast ★★★

📍 52 Pacific St, Main Beach

"The overall experience wasn’t enjoyable. The room was extremely dusty, dirty and was not cleaned to the standards expected. The bathroom sink was clogged, dirty walls, kitchen cutlery and plates dirty. Construction was going on in front of the building and it was extremely noisy, couldn’t sit out on the balcony. View was probably the only positive about my 4 night stay. Wouldn’t recommend this place."

9.1 (50 reviews)

Norfolk Luxury Beachfront Apartments Main Beach ★★★★

📍 3534 Main Beach Parade, Main Beach

"Michael was very accommodating. We found this online and after some discussion made the drive and we were very happy with what was on offer. This was a last minute stay for 7 nights due to having previous accomodation issues which we cancelled due to it being terrible. Fantastic location, great views, clean tidy, great pool area with spa and cooking facility."

The Meriton on Main Beach
8.5 (18 reviews)

The Meriton on Main Beach ★★★★

📍 29-39 Woodroffe Ave, Main Beach

"We had some pluses and minuses on our stay. The building is well located but can be quite noisy at night as it is near the shops. Be aware there is a lot of construction nearby and this can be very noisy! The unit itself is well appointed, the bed comfortable but overall the cleaning is not great and some utensils were ready for the bin. A lot could be done to improve this property."

The Waterford on Main Beach ★★★★
"Absolutely outstanding experience here. Simply gorgeous decor and comfortable apartment with views that awe! Clean, hygienic and attention to detail on point. Host Damien and Emma go out of their way to ensure stay is at an optimum level. We stayed in apartment 14, on level 7 and could not fault it. Breathtaking views, ideal for the air show, or simply relaxing and taking in the horizon. European appliances and fresh carpet. Super comfortable beds and little touches that made this trip so memorable. Have already booked again and cannot wait to enjoy this gem."

The Meriton on Main Beach ★★★★
"After reading some of the the reviews I was somewhat concerned. I had read a review mentioning a particular unit and how dreadful it was but I can’t find it again. Very strange! Anyway we arrived only to find we were in that very same unit!😬. We unlocked the door with trepidation only to be pleasantly surprised. The unit is spacious and had a lovely view overlooking the bay. It had everything we needed and it was wonderful to be able to do all our washing ( 4 weeks worth) before flying home to the UK. Just a short walk to the tram. We were here when they were setting up for the Gold Coast 500 but even that didn’t seem to make things busier. it’s a little dated and some of the furnishings are really worn out but that didn’t impact on our stay and also I wouldn’t furnish out a rented property in the very best decor because it will get damaged. All in all very good value for money and we loved the apartment living. We’ve always been hotel people but this experience has made us think again. "

Xanadu Main Beach Resort ★★★★
"travelled with a group of friends but got a solo apartment and was blown away by the size and quality of the room. Whenever not at the resort pool, the beach, or many of the high-quality restaurants surrounding the resort, I was on the balcony with the lovely sea breeze blowing in, reading my book and drinking the complimentary fruity vodka crushes I was delighted to find waiting for me upon first arriving in my room. I will definitely be returning to this resort in the future."
