Hotels near Gold Coast Sea World, Main Beach

I sit and write this during a current stay far from impressed and wishing we had booked elsewhere! Whilst close to Seaworld itself it is otherwise completely off the beaten track and you need a car or to spend $$ on public transport (or to be content just staying at the resort for the duration of the stay). Other than the restaurants in the resort there are no other restaurants within east walking distance. An Uber to Broadbeach/Pacific Fair was $25 one way. There is a free shuttle to Pacific Fair bit for one of the scheduled departures it did not arrive today. The rooms are clean but basic and extremely noisy. Yes this is a family resort but I still think the noise is well beyond any other family resort I have stayed in of similar value. The bathrooms are dated despite being described in the ‘luxury escapes’ ad as stylish with pastel hues (pastel yes…stylish and/or modern definite no). There appears to be very little noise proofing between rooms. The ‘corridors’ are frequently adorned with used towels or used room service trays that the ‘bin chickens’ are having a go at and spreading the contents. Overall I would not recommend it for a stay.

Used to be called Versace hotel but changed now. Service was good and the room was spacious. Breakfast buffet was good too!

Hygiene: Too bad. There are hairs in the bathtub, ash on the sink, and a thick layer of dust mites accumulated on the air outlet of the bathroom (see picture 3). I think the hygiene aspect needs to be improved. Environment: There's really nothing to say about it. It has a unique location. There is a beach behind the hotel, and you can enter and exit by swiping your room card. Moreover, the swimming pool and decoration inside the hotel are also great and very eye-catching. Service: The service is also very good, whether it is the doorman, front desk, or cleaning, they are all friendly. And the breakfast is also very good, with many varieties and good quality. I will choose this hotel next time I go to gold coast. I just hope the bathroom can be improved.

The interior of the room is clean and above all, the view is so nice There's a market right below that you can use comfortably, and there's also a place where you can have a beer in the evening, so it was really nice.

The picture does not match the reality, the picture looks like the hotel is very high, is able to see the sea or the city, but in fact the highest only 7 floors. The most important thing is that at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, was called up by the fire alarm, panicked and ran downstairs, and finally the hotel checked and found that there was no problem, the hotel did not have any compensation, not even an apology! Worst without one.

Yes, there is no bright spot, but the whole family lives well.

STAY HERE AT YOUR OWN RISK. The room at this resort harmed my children, was extremely poorly maintained and the customer service, and lack of care from management, was the worst I have ever experienced. We paid over $600 a night to stay in a 2 bedroom apartment and here were all the issues we experienced: - The room had multiple maintenance issues, many of which are a health and safety concern, and two issues brought physical harm to our children: there was an issue with their fridge which did not keep our food at a safe temperature causing our children to be sick. After bringing this to their attention there was no concern showed for the wellbeing of our children, no apology made, instead they told us that our matter was not urgent and, even worse, placed the blame on us, accusing us of “tampering” with their appliance. Why I would tamper with an appliance to cause my own children to be sick is unfathomable to me and it is clear that placing the blame on the customer was to avoid the very reasonable request I made of being reimbursed for the food that was wasted due to their faulty fridge ($81 for fridge items and $62 for breakfast out when we discovered that the milk had gone off despite being in date and only recently being opened). A small compensation in the scheme of an over $6600 stay. My child is still suffering medically a month after the stay and the manager has told us to employ a solicitor and that they will not compensate us. The hot water tap in the ensuite was broken, when rotating the tap to turn it off, it never turned to be completely off, instead it continued to rotate and the hot water came back on full blast scalding our child (a plumber came 3 days later to fix it, there was no apology made based on the harm that resulted). After the ensuite shower issue we then used the main bathroom shower which was blocked and caused flooding all over the bathroom and carpet into the hall (carpet remained uncomfortably wet for 2 days after this incident). Other maintenance issues included: the light globe in the laundry was not working upon arrival, there were insufficient kitchen utensils / supplies which was resolved when we informed them (one would think this would be checked beforehand), the child safety chain on the loungeroom blinds was broken, the door stop on the front door was broken, there were stains all over the carpet, holes in almost every wall, ripped cushions on the outdoor furniture, and the cot supplied (at additional cost) was musty and had cobwebs on it requiring me to clean it. - The spa in the common area was filthy. - Check in time was 2pm, at 2pm the room wasn’t ready, it was still being cleaned. Reception said that they would message us when the room was ready. Never received a message. - The room was supposed to supply milk, dishwasher powder, dishwashing liquid and laundry liquid. These were not supplied and we had to request them. The milk had not been delivered and then was never supplied. For your own

Decent hotel, nice location
