Miami Beach Retreat
Lovely, comfortable and clean stay. Very close to beach and local cafes/ restaurants.

Spectacular Surfers Paradise Luxury BEACHFRONT
What a fantastic place! The view was amazing. We had a great time sitting out on the patio listening to the waves and watching the sunrise. Easy to slip down to the pool and then right out onto the beach. We parked our car (in the provided spot) and didn't get into it until we left. Everything was walkable or it was just a hop, jump and a skip with the tram. My only disappointment? We couldn't stay longer. There's always a next time. Thanks Brad!!

Brad’s place was easy walking distance to great cafes and restaurants. It had everything that we needed, so we felt right at home. We were grateful to be able to be able to bring our dog along with us. Thanks Brad.
Surfers Aquarius Beach Front Level 33
Caroline’s place at Surfers Aquarius was absolutely incredible! The view from the 33rd floor was simply breathtaking—waking up to that ocean view was something else. The apartment was spotless, stylish, and had everything we needed for a super comfortable stay. The building itself had great amenities, and the location was perfect—just a short walk to the beach, cafes, and shops. Caroline was a lovely host—very responsive and thoughtful. Easily one of the best Airbnb stays we’ve had. Highly recommended!

BEACH FRONT HAVEN @ Oracle Level 14
My family and I booked this apartment for a week and it was perfect!! It met all our needs and more. The apartment was clean and well set up and had everything we needed. Great location and close to everything!

Amazing beach view and perfect location Kirra
Loved the location!! Beautiful views and within walking distance to all the great restaurants, surf clubs, cafes and the beach. The markets were on our weekend which were a 10 minute walk which was great. Camille was very responsive to any queries and provided the check in codes a little earlier so we could settle in. The apartment was spotlessly clean and had such a nice beach vibe 🩵 we would highly recommend and look forward to staying again.

‘Blue View’ On Palm Beach.
Our stay was the perfect getaway. Absolutely stunning beach & ocean views, beautiful and clean apartment, exceeding our expectations. Convenient location to accessing cafes, restaurants & grocery stores, which are within a short walking distance. We loved our scenic beach walks to other areas of the Gold Coast, making our experience even more enjoyable. Karine was very informative and kind, always ready and available to help. We hope to return on our next visit to Australia. Highly recommended!

Beachside Paradise @ Oracle Level 23
Loved this apartment! Beautiful ocean views, two lovely outdoor spaces and close to restaurants, supermarket, pub, surf club, casino and beach right across the road! So spacious and definitely feeling of home away from home. See you next time!
Waterfront house rentals

Broadbeach Waterfront - Winner Best family home
Better than the photos - which doesn’t always happen. Perfect for families and young children as they have everything there. The house also has everything you could think of on site so need to bring much. Great place to relax and enjoy family time :)

Absolute Beachfront House in Palm Beach
We had the most luxurious long weekend, as soon as we stepped in the door it was like the external world just melted away. Everyone slept amazingly, the kitchen was well equipped with everything you need and the ocean view was just incredible.

Waterfront house-pool, firepit, jetty, kayaks/SUPs
My family and I had a wonderful time at Matts place. The property was just as Matt described it. We had our 8 month old grandson with us and we had use of a travel cot and high chair which was perfect. If you are ever looking for somewhere to stay on the Gold Coast be sure to book this place.

Gold Coast Central Waterfront House with Pool
The property was perfection for a holiday stay!! Everything was just right, the pool and back view was amazing. It was in a great area where everything was easy to get to. The host is absolutely outstanding and helpful. 10/10 would recommend 😍

Gold Coast Island Life South Stradbroke Island
Lindy’s place is always a favourite of ours. This was our second trip and we love this place. Lindy is a great host. No complaints

Beach House Tugun
Perfect location with the beach so close. We had our baby and 2yr old so the little yard was perfect to keep them contained and not a long walk back from the beach. Minimalist and simple furnishings. Communication was great too. Would stay again!

Luxury Waterfront Villa in Paradise. Pets Welcome.
Second stay at this amazing place! Kynan was very responsive to our queries and the house is set up so well. Love the location on the water with beautiful morning and evening views.

Tropical Waterfront Family Entertainer Pet friendl
I loved dealing with Deirdre. She was so easy to communicate with, and we loved the home. It worked really well for us. We would like to come back again.

Level 12… 180° of Uninterrupted Beachfront Views.
Beautiful unit. Photos don’t do it justice. The view is absolutely spectacular and all the finishes were incredible! The bed was very firm (ok for husband not for me) and very squeaky when rolling over during the night. The balcony and the way it opens up provides a beautiful breeze and the fans are wonderful on those warm nights. Jason was wonderful to deal with and very quick to respond. Wish we didn’t have to leave but will return. We met friends for dinner and drinks and they loved it also and will also come stay here next time!

Luxury 1 BR Ocean View Apt with wifi netflix stan
My stay at Peter’s apartment was beyond all my expectations. The apartment was absolutely perfect with magnificent ocean views. The set up was fantastic! With a big screen TV and a king size bed that was to die for. First time I’ve had a proper sleep in 25 years. Amazing!! I honestly couldn’t recommend this apartment enough. I shall be back at every chance I can get. Thank you again for your wonderful hospitality and for allowing me to stay in your beautiful apartment. Cheers, Mark

Beachfront Bliss
Brads place was lovely with gorgeous ocean views. It was easy walking distance to many shops and good restaurants. The bed was so comfortable like sleeping on a cloud. We would definitely stay again!

Amazing Views- 1Bdr Apt- Views, Pools
Sharryn’s place was just beautiful. Great location and such a beautiful well set up apartment. Sharryn was a wonderful host, she met us at the complex and took us to the apartment and showed us the ins and outs. Great stay!

Ocean view 1 bedroom apartment
An all around perfect stay with the best views (and rainbow lorikeet watching), walkability, and overall comfort! Truly lived like locals for a month long stay and the apartment was well-equipped and felt like home. We will be back!

Luxury, 2 Bedroom Ocean View Apartment
We had a lovely time, the space worked really well for us. And Thankyou to Aliyah for being so prompt when we had a question. I would thoroughly recommend this place to stay. 👍

Stunning Beachfront level48 with parking /L
We had a really good 4 night stay. Great location, walking distance to everything. Check in was easy, clear pictures on where to find the keys. Good accom if you have little ones as in the cupboard there were a bucket and shovel, scooters and boogie boards provided. The only downside was there was a smell that lingered around the whole time and no hot water the morning we were checking out so could not shower.

Beachy, Ocean View, Wi-Fi, Opp Beach & Surf Club.
We had the most amazing weekend at the Surfers chalet! The room was immaculate with a fantastic view of the beach as listed, and we enjoyed the very cozy spa area. Carolyn and Garry were so accommodating and incredibly helpful during our weekend stay; couldn't have asked for better hosts. We hope to be back soon!
