Our stay at Vue Broadbeach Gold Coast was truly amazing. The pricing was very reasonable for the quality and location, and being just a short three-minute walk from the beach made it even better. The apartment was exceptionally clean, and the overall experience felt very comfortable and well taken care of. The service was excellentâhousekeeping was lovely, and the front desk staff were welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. Even though we stayed for a couple of nights, we honestly wished we had stayed longer. Itâs definitely a place we would happily return to.

D33_8Great apartment, lots of light and excellent location. The only downside is you have to walk 8mins to pick up and return keys, which isn't a big deal but might be difficult if you had lots of luggage. Overall, still recommended.

Crouching Koala Hidden EmuComfortable, Liveable Stay in a Prime Location
Avani Residences works particularly well if you want a proper apartment rather than a standard hotel room. The residence-style layout makes it far more liveable, especially for stays longer than a night or two.
The apartment had good internal space, a usable balcony, and modern fittings throughout. A real highlight was having full laundry facilities â washing machine and dryer â which made it easy to deal with wet swimwear and beach towels. The fully equipped kitchen, including a breakfast bench, was practical and well set up rather than decorative.
Location-wise, itâs excellent. The building sits opposite the new ****** precinct developments, diagonally across from Pacific Fair Shopping Centre, and only a short walk to the tram stop, making it easy to get around without a car. Broadbeach itself feels more relaxed than Surfers Paradise, and the beach here is currently in better condition, with Surfers losing a fair bit of sand after Cyclone Albert.
The complex itself is modern and well maintained, with a pool, small gym, and a clubhouse-style bar/restaurant. Itâs also close to other new developments in Broadbeach, so the area feels fresh and active without being chaotic.
Overall, a strong choice if you value space, self-sufficiency, and location, and prefer an apartment-style stay over a traditional hotel experience.

Location and facilities were great. Heated pool and great cafe 2min walk.
The apartment itself was rundown, but equipped with the basics. One of the rooms was locked to us, but had access to the balcony. There was a horrific smell in the kitchen (wall?) we had to get room spray to help mask it. The microwave and cupboards were unusable.
We would return to Ultra, however, would request a different apartment.

DyreI stayed at Sofitel Gold Coast Broadbeach from 24 to 27 July.
On the evening of 25 July, while applying body lotion as part of my normal daily routine, I noticed several small marks on my shoulder and upper inner thigh/groin area that appeared to be possible insect bites. I apply body lotion every day and am certain these marks were not present on the evening of 24 July after check-in.
It was winter on the Gold Coast, and on 25 July I spent most of the day inside a shopping centre, wearing long sleeves and long trousers outdoors. I cannot say with certainty where the marks came from, but later that evening I also saw insects in the room and immediately reported the matter to the hotel.
I did not want to remain in that room. I repeatedly tried to contact Trip.com because, based on previous experience, they have helped arrange alternative accommodation when hotel problems occur. Unfortunately, I could not reach Trip.com that night.
The hotel told me it was fully booked and offered only two options: move to a room without air conditioning or remain in the same room after it had been cleaned. As it was late, I was overseas, and I had no practical alternative, I reluctantly accepted the temporary arrangement.
That same evening, the hotel told me that I would be upgraded to another room the following day and that breakfasts on 26 and 27 July would be complimentary. Before accepting, I asked what would happen if the marks became worse. The staff did not make any promise regarding my physical condition or responsibility. They simply explained that the cleaning, room upgrade and breakfasts were âextraâ goodwill gestures. I accepted based on that explanation and because I had no realistic alternative that night.
The staff who initially handled my complaint were polite, professional and genuinely tried to help. My main disappointment was the hotelâs internal communication.
For clarity, I paid for breakfast on 25 July myself. The hotel promised complimentary breakfasts only for 26 and 27 July, and I did not even have breakfast on 26 July.
Despite this, I had to explain the same arrangement three times:
1. When collecting the key for the upgraded room on 26 July, the front desk initially said breakfast was not included.
2. On the morning of 27 July, the restaurant reception again said I needed to pay.
3. At check-out on 27 July, the front desk attempted to charge me for three breakfasts.
The charges were eventually removed, but only after I explained the situation again.
My criticism is not directed at individual employees, as everyone I dealt with was polite and willing to help. The real issue was the lack of communication between the department handling my complaint, the front desk and the restaurant.
The location is excellent and the staff attitude was generally good, but discovering possible insect bites and insects in the room was already stressful. Having to repeat the same issue three times because the hotelâs own goodwill arrangement had not been communicated internally made the experience even more disappointing.
I hope the hotel improves its room hygiene, complaint-handling procedures and communication between departments.

Our experience was good. The apartments are well organised and no lengthy check-in process like other places. A bit surprised after paying the amount due weeks before and then being requested for another $500 prior to checking in otherwise the booking can't be guaranteed. Most people take American Express in the accommodation industry and this was also a surprise. Apart from that it was a very pleasant state and we will book it again if we get a good deal.

This time I stayed in a double room type. Generally speaking, it is a clean hotel. It is also located on the beach. It only takes three to five minutes to walk to the beach (as in the picture, it is the beach next to the hotel). It is quite convenient. The only regret is that the counter service hours are very short, from 9 to 16 on weekdays, and only from 9 to 12 on holidays. If you need help opening the door outside the service hours, you need to pay 50 Australian dollars. The hotel also has a swimming pool, but it seems that the usage rate is not high. I hardly saw anyone using it for three days after staying there. Maybe they all went to the beach!

We enjoyed our stay at the Aria apartment.
It's in a Great Location with a great view; however, the noise of the large bins being collected in the street each morning at 6:30 a.m did spoil our sleep-ins.
The most disappointing factor was the smell of the bathroom towels. I suggest a note to the company about laundering the towels.

Guest UserVery handy location within walking distance to restaurants, beach and entertainment and secure onsite parking. Basic amenities, dated and tired. For price I had expected more. Simple things like matching crockery and newer furniture void of marks etc would really enhance the overall experience. Also, microwave had been damaged/burnt so stunk out room and we were wary to use.
