My husband and I stayed at Mt Tamborine Bed and Breakfast in October. It is beautifully appointed with lovingly cared for gardens and even some bird life to feed! We were greeted by Pam who could not do enough for us. The room was equipped with everything that we needed and there was even a bowl of chocolates! Breakfast was exceptional with a range of homemade jams (the fig was delicious) and a fresh fruit salad. We had our breakfast on the deck overlooking the Gold Coast. It was very...

The driveway in to the resort began the sense of getting away from the world. We were welcomed with a warm and friendly greeting, after that staff were available, friendly but not intrusive which was nice.Total wow factor on seeing our cottage. Breakfast was a lovely bonus, as were the complimentary wine and chocolates. I would love to have stayed and relaxed longer. Thanks for the experience Pether's, I will definitely return.

It was so unfortunate that two flights back to Sydney were cancelled on the same day. My friend and I were so lucky to find La Costa, one of the motels with a super high rating on Expedia, TripAdvisor and other hotel websites, and got the last room of it to save our lives! We thought it was just a motel and did't have high expectation on La Costa even its rating is exceptionally high. However, when we arrived and met the friendly and helpful hostess, we were so glad that we picked La Costa! The...

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in room 705 at the Marrakesh. The room was spotlessly clean, the carpet looked new and the kitchen and bathroom facilities were in excellent condition. Our room had lovely views to the ocean. Our deal included a $10 breakfast voucher which covered the cost of a continental breakfast of toast, cereal and tea or coffee. We chose something off the breakfast menu, which ranged from just under $10 to a little over, and used our vouchers towards this, which...

Our room was very comfortable, bed felt luxurious, and our spa was a nice treat. The grounds had several spots for sitting and enjoying the afternoon and rainforest sounds.

My friend and I stayed here for a total of 7 nights. We were welcomed with friendly and inviting staff, a clean room and a beautiful view. We stayed in the one bedroom apartment, the air conditioning was perfect, our room had foxtel along with local channels. We had a go of the sauna, spa and the pool which were all amazing as well. 10 minute walk into town which was perfect, not to far but just enough to be quiet. One street from the tram line which was convenient for when we went to Draculars....

A lovely warm welcome. The front desk lady greeted us with a lovely big smile. Gave us information on the area and was very proud of the local football club who had three senior teams in the grand final played the day before. The room was clean and had a great private outside area through your back door. Nice to relax there with a cool drink. More than adequate tea, coffee and sugar supplies. The motel is about 100m from the RSL club who served up hearty reasonable priced meals . Great...
