Hotels with Balcony in Main Beach

One of group who recently travelled to Gold coast went fantastic and would like to thank you for pushing in order getting 100% visa done before departure.... Would like to share group experience about Boatshed Bar & Grill at Sea World Resort....before Australia Tourism get into providing marketing space to such product few important points to be well placed Location - Great Ambience - Good Approach to the venue - Good Food - Good in taste. Supervisor to the event - Ms. Kate @ Useless & hopeless GM - Sanjay Bhatia a man good for nothing...handling such a product but giving an excuse shortage of kitchen manpower and not flexible to change in menu provided 2-3 days time...don't have guts to take call at night 0930 PM & till date he didn't call back...so, in short he is a hopeless & useless fellow. How to Spoil a venue one should learn from Sanjay Bhatia... Music - We got DJ booked for 3 hours but volume got lowered 8 PM onwards, to which DJ guy was helpless as control was from back office...so, 100% waste of money Smoking - Its an open area but non smoking zone....so, no point in having a Gala night with drinks at this venue..security personnel don't allow smoking....Beverage premium brand stock not available despite giving 2-3 days time...there staff was running pillar to post to arrange premium brand but helpless. The Boatshed Bar & Grill is part of Sea World Resort so, guest at resort r given priority to there comfort so, venue is not recommended for such Gala Event....there intend to get the event over by 9 PM.... The Boatshed Bar & Grill, Gold Coast is totally waste of money..& sorry for Aneesha Chopra she is marketing a wrong product to Indian clients as her profile get effected... Please suggest venue at Gold Coast as we have multiple groups lined up where such type of Gala Event be pitched....

Location is perfect..the St.James station is about 5 min walk only..shops are all around the hotel. The breakfast spread was good but one thing they should improve is they should have more Halal options available.

Used to be called Versace hotel but changed now. Service was good and the room was spacious. Breakfast buffet was good too!

STAY HERE AT YOUR OWN RISK. The room at this resort harmed my children, was extremely poorly maintained and the customer service, and lack of care from management, was the worst I have ever experienced. We paid over $600 a night to stay in a 2 bedroom apartment and here were all the issues we experienced: - The room had multiple maintenance issues, many of which are a health and safety concern, and two issues brought physical harm to our children: there was an issue with their fridge which did not keep our food at a safe temperature causing our children to be sick. After bringing this to their attention there was no concern showed for the wellbeing of our children, no apology made, instead they told us that our matter was not urgent and, even worse, placed the blame on us, accusing us of “tampering” with their appliance. Why I would tamper with an appliance to cause my own children to be sick is unfathomable to me and it is clear that placing the blame on the customer was to avoid the very reasonable request I made of being reimbursed for the food that was wasted due to their faulty fridge ($81 for fridge items and $62 for breakfast out when we discovered that the milk had gone off despite being in date and only recently being opened). A small compensation in the scheme of an over $6600 stay. My child is still suffering medically a month after the stay and the manager has told us to employ a solicitor and that they will not compensate us. The hot water tap in the ensuite was broken, when rotating the tap to turn it off, it never turned to be completely off, instead it continued to rotate and the hot water came back on full blast scalding our child (a plumber came 3 days later to fix it, there was no apology made based on the harm that resulted). After the ensuite shower issue we then used the main bathroom shower which was blocked and caused flooding all over the bathroom and carpet into the hall (carpet remained uncomfortably wet for 2 days after this incident). Other maintenance issues included: the light globe in the laundry was not working upon arrival, there were insufficient kitchen utensils / supplies which was resolved when we informed them (one would think this would be checked beforehand), the child safety chain on the loungeroom blinds was broken, the door stop on the front door was broken, there were stains all over the carpet, holes in almost every wall, ripped cushions on the outdoor furniture, and the cot supplied (at additional cost) was musty and had cobwebs on it requiring me to clean it. - The spa in the common area was filthy. - Check in time was 2pm, at 2pm the room wasn’t ready, it was still being cleaned. Reception said that they would message us when the room was ready. Never received a message. - The room was supposed to supply milk, dishwasher powder, dishwashing liquid and laundry liquid. These were not supplied and we had to request them. The milk had not been delivered and then was never supplied. For your own

Decent hotel, nice location

We had an incredible family holiday at oscar on Main resort. The location was perfect, close to the beach, restaurants. The apartment itself was spacious, clean, and well-maintained, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The view from the balcony was breathtaking. We’d highly recommend it to families looking for a relaxing and convenient holiday spot. We’d love to stay here again on our next trip!

We have stayed at Golden Sands many times over the past decade or so and love the true beachfront location. Our preferred apartment is 503, which is a beautifully refurbished 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment. It has an amazing view, quality furniture, new full kitchen with stone bench top and stainless steel Smeg appliances (it also has a Nespresso machine, which the other apartments I have stayed in there don’t have) and 2 luxe bathrooms (one with a freestanding bath) and the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. The sound system and the 3 televisions are a nice touch. Love the concrete floor in the living areas and the soft carpet in the bedrooms. So good to have air con in the living area and both bedrooms, as well as a full laundry with washer, dryer and tub. It was fantastic to visit again after a couple of years to see that the complex has been completely modernised. It has been repainted, new balcony railings and tiles and the common areas have all been upgraded. The tennis court and pool areas have also been modernised. The place looks brand new! The managers Barbara and Ernie really couldn’t do enough for us and keep the place spotlessly clean and the gardens manicured. This is deluxe accomodation in a first rate location, with no roads to cross and a private stairway to the beach. Also no road noise and no cranes (there is a lot of construction going on in Main Beach). I have booked our next stay at Golden Sands already and can’t wait to go back!

Unit 10A family of four, two adults, two teenagers, 5 nights. A beautiful stay! The view was gorgeous from both balconies! The apartment spacious and the facilities (2x pools/tennis court/ sauna / spa were perfect after a long day exploring. Check in was warm and welcoming and the secure car parking great. Some items in the apartment were looking old like the curtains, but didn’t impact the stay. Furnishings were lovely and beachy and the beds comfortable. Living area and main bedroom has aircon, all spaces have ceiling fans. Washer and drier was useful for the longer stay. Would absolutely stay again. Accessibility: the unit is not wheelchair accessible, but isn’t advertised as such. The shower both have larger lips to step over as do the balcony doors. The two pools and spa have handrails into them which was a great support.
