An iconic property sprawling majestically across five acres, Paradise Resort Gold Coast stands as the largest single property in Surfers Paradise, just a stone's throw from the glitzy bustle of Main Beach. Upon arrival, guests are greeted by a captivating lobby adorned with modern art pieces that reflect the vibrant culture of the Gold Coast. The resort's low-rise structure melds seamlessly into its lush surroundings, fostering an atmosphere of relaxation framed by the gentle murmur of cascading water features. Stepping further inside, guests will discover elevation in the form of a shimmering rooftop space, dynamic family dining options, and engaging kid-friendly zones. With contemporary design punctuated by warm, inviting hues, every suite invites you into a world of comfort, while the rooftop pool area beckons with azure views of the skyscape.

Conveniently located just a short stroll from Surfers Paradise Beach and a mere 25 km from the Gold Coast Airport, the resort is your gateway to an eclectic haven filled with experiences.

Don't forget to embark on day trips that include hot air balloon rides over the breathtaking hinterland or a guided tour of the lush Mt Tamborine wineries. With public transport easily accessible and nearby attractions like Budds Beach, The Arts Centre Gold Coast, and Omeros Bros seafood restaurant adding to the local allure, you'll find the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.
