Surfers Paradise Apartments
Surfers
Paradise Apartments
There
are
almost too many options for holiday apartments in Surfers
Paradise!
Don't despair - that's one of the main motivations for this
website! I have tried to lay out these pages to help you work
out where to stay. Simple things like:
- Type
and Number
of bedrooms - give you an idea of whether it will work for
your holiday.
- Star
rating
- Ratings used here are a guide only, they do change so please check
with the property or use a ratings group such as AAA Tourism to check
these out for yourself. Ratings are not always an indicator of price,
but will give you some idea.
- Notes
- Offer up some general information that I would find useful and I hope
you do too. Things like other names that you might find it
under, how close to Surfers Paradise centra area and any special
facilities.

Paradise Apartments
at
a Glance
|
|
I
try my best to ensure that my information is
accurate by doing my own research - but things do change! Let
me know if you find anything and I will check it and fix
up!
Some of the links open in a new
window as they are not on this
website. That enables you to return to this page easily if you find
that those Surfers Paradise apartments were not what you were looking
for.
I won't apologise for my list. It is what I consider to be
the better
apartments in each category. Personally, I would stay in any
one
of the 4 star or above properties.
That is not to
say that
there are not good 3½ star ones but I find that there is much
more variation in the quality at these levels. You will have
to
decide for yourself.
Once you have a better idea of the options then you can drill down
further to get specific information on the accommodation and
compare great deals. The information is not exhaustive and
there
are other apartments in Surfers Paradise - so this is only a
guide.
One thing to be aware of is the servicing of apartments.
Hotel rooms are generally serviced daily, but in an
apartment
you
are considered much more self-contained. Daily
servicing can
usually be arranged but you will have to pay extra for it.
I wouldn't let this put me off choosing an apartment. I love
hotels, but when travelling with my kids I love the freedom a 2 bedroom
apartment affords us all. Paying to get the daily service
makes
it like a holiday for me rather than just moving my "life as a
housework slave" to another location!
