Gold Coast Location Advantages
The resort sits directly across from Currumbin Beach, between Elephant Rock and Currumbin Rock. Coolangatta Airport is 8-10 minutes drive north, with Uber fares costing $20-25.

“The beachfront location is a real draw, with direct access to Currumbin Beach. I appreciate the self-contained apartments; having full kitchens and laundry facilities makes longer stays so much easier. For families, the pirate-themed playground and proximity to Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary are definite highlights.”
