Couran Cove Resort is a resort with all the activities and
facilities you could want for your South Stradbroke Island
holiday. Located on the western broadwater side of South Stradbroke
Island and based around a man-made marina, it is nestled between the
native bush and the magnificent waterway. There accommodation options suit just about any taste and family group combination you can think of. Couran Cove Resort offers several food options including a restaurant, cafe, bar and poolside kiosk. For some pampering try the Day Spa and Rejuvenation Centre, they even have Couples Massage Room. What I like most about this resort is that it truly is that, a base for your whole holiday you can really relax and enjoy an island resort yet still have access to all the other activities the Gold Coast has to offer. |
