It can be enjoyable to just amble around the streets when you're in a new destination, but sometimes it's a wise idea to have an agenda. Grab your itinerary — we have loads of fantastic ideas for your forthcoming Mermaid Beach holiday.

Travelling can often mean donning the same clothes day in, day out. So, if you're thinking of indulging in a snazzy new outfit, head on over to Pacific Fair Shopping Centre. Visitors have a wonderful selection of things to do in this destination. Go after that difficult hole-in-one or just enjoy a few laughs at Putt Putt Golf Mermaid Beach. Fun for the entire family, the only thing left to do is choose a putter and improve your skills! Still have some time to spare? Live theatre can challenge our beliefs and asks us to aspire to bigger things. Attend a performance at Dracula's Queensland and open your mind to some big ideas.

Whatever type of accommodation you're on the lookout for, Mermaid Beach can deliver the goods. With 45 listed options to pick between, you're sure to find one that's ideal for your cheap holiday or luxury getaway.

Pondering where to spend your nights? Just bear in mind — cheap doesn't have to mean dust mites and old linen! You'll find clean, low-price options such as the Ocean Blue Motel (2323 Gold Coast Highway) and the A' Montego Mermaid Beach Motel (2395 Gold Coast Highway). On the other hand, if you haven't treated yourself in ages, why not now? The Peppers Broadbeach (21 Elizabeth Ave) and the Ultra Broadbeach (14 George Ave) are waiting to spoil you.

Let's be honest, nobody likes hanging out at the airport. However, if you focus on the exciting trip to Mermaid Beach that awaits, you should be all right. After all, you'll be just 50 miles northwest of the neighbourhood centre when you file off the plane at Brisbane Airport (BNE).
