Hotel Description

A luxury stay in the heart of Gold Coast awaits you at JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort & Spa. Within just a 10-minute stroll, you'll find Macintosh Island Park and Budds Beach. Highlights at this beach hotel include 3 restaurants, 2 outdoor swimming pools, and a marina.

The restaurant, Citrique, serves international cuisine and is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Pool Pavillion is the hotel's own bar, serving drinks along with lunch and light fare. Enjoy access to 2 spa tubs and 2 outdoor tennis courts along with a gym and a lazy river. 1445 square feet (134 square meters) of event facilities include a conference center, and other business amenities include a business center. Added amenities include free WiFi in public areas and laundry facilities. Buffet breakfast is available daily between 6:30 AM and 10:30 AM.

With a stay at this 5-star Surfers Paradise hotel, you'll be 4.8 km (3 mi) from The Star Gold Coast and 17.6 km (10.9 mi) from Warner Bros. Movie World.

Taking inspiration from its Gold Coast surroundings, Marriott Surfers Paradise Resort & Spa is a strikingly beautiful hotel on the banks of the Nerang River, just a short walk from the beach. Its star attraction is the vast, luxurious water complex, with a palm-fringed beach and a heated saltwater lagoon teeming with tropical fish, waterfalls and caves.  

Inside the hotel, tropical plants, natural timbers and light-filled spaces lull you into a blissfully elegant welcome. The resort has six dining rooms – the most famous is its lunchtime seafood buffet with live cooking demonstrations. Spend an evening at Misono Japanese Steakhouse where teppanyaki chefs show off their skills and send the flames high, right at your table.  

Enjoy the beach, city or mountain views from your spacious minimalist room’s floor-to-ceiling windows or decked out balcony. And save big when you book with Wotif, thanks to awesome year-round deals.

Love the property. Friendly and helpful staff. Loved the lagoon and swimming pool. Not far from Cavill Avenue, beaches and shopping malls. Less than 30 mins to Movie World and less than 15 mins from Sea World.

Thank you for your review Clint! We can't wait to welcome you and your family back to the resort!

5 out of 5
Grand is the word I would use to sum up this hotel/resort. Luxurious experience throughout. The only fault I can say is that the kitchen made a mistake with a room service order which was promptly remedied by the courteous staff. Other than this, a flawless stay and shall be returning in the future.
