The best Gold Coast accommodation deals include packages with free airport transfers, free breakfast and bonus voucher books. Deals such as these can be found online. Specialist hotel comparison websites may have offers available which cannot be found by direct booking from the property.

An example bonus voucher offer can be found when booking more than two nights in a one bedroom self catering apartment at Paradise Isles Hotel. This is a Mediterranean style property, at Burra Street on Chevron Island, near to the busy centre of Surfers Paradise.

The Paradise self catering apartments are in a low rise, Mediterranean styled complex, with pool and heated spa, internet kiosk and BBQ area. All rooms have full air conditioning, TV and internet, and en-suite bathroom facilities. The fully equipped kitchens have both microwave and conventional ovens for cooking, and washer/dryer and ironing board.

Booking a two nights (or more) stay at Paradise Isles through Discover Australia Holidays, entitles the guest to a complimentary voucher booklet. The booklet provides discounts for numerous popular attractions on Gold Coast, as well as for many shops and restaurants.

The Paradise Isles hotel is on Chevron Island, which is just off the Gold Coast Highway, between Surfers Paradise and Southport. It is just a short walk from the hotel into the busy Cavill Avenue shopping and nightlife centre of Surfers, or to Surfers Paradise Main Beach.

Apartments at Paradise Isles are also ideally located for visiting Jupiter’s Casino, or the Centro Shopping Centre. The nearby suburb of Southport is the place to find one of Gold Coast’s favourite theme parks, Sea World. Sea World is a marine mammal park and aquarium. The Warner Bros Movie World and the Wet-n-Wild Water World parks can also be easily reached from Paradise Isles: they are in Oxenford just a short way along the Gold Coast Highways. Surfside Buslines, the local bus operator, run frequent services along this main route.

Surfside Buslines also run theme park transfers (shuttles) and airport transfers. Guests will be picked up or dropped off from any registered accommodation in the region. Airport shuttles serve Coolangatta airport, which is on the New South Wales/Queensland border, at the southern extremity of the resort.

Some hotel and self catering apartment packages include free airport shuttle. If they do then the shuttle should be booked at the same time as the hotel. In other cases shuttle transfers can be booked online, or via a travel agent, or when arriving at Coolangatta airport. Family tickets (two adults, two children) and pensioner discount tickets are available for the shuttle.

The Gold Coast is the area of Queensland to the south of the capital city, Brisbane. The 60 kilometre stretch of coastline has many fine surfing beaches. The area has a sunny, sub-tropical climate. As well as spending time on the beach, or in the surf, many other activities are possible. The area has a great number of golf courses, and boasts national level sports teams in football (soccer), rugby league, basketball and ice hockey.

The hinterland area is part of the rain forest covered Great Dividing Range of Australia. Many hikers and bushwalkers enjoy exploring this part of the region, which is a World Heritage Zone.
