Our Review Chevron Renaissance Resort, Surfers Paradise

Chevron Renaissance, Surfers Paradise Gold Coast
Here is another fantastic family resort to consider while looking at Gold Coast Holiday Accommodation and this is why we like it. First of all if you are after a central location and modern apartments you really can’t go past Chevron Renaissance Resort, it’s been a favourite with both families and couples for the past few years and there are many reasons why.
Directly below the resort is the Chevron Renaissance Shopping Complex which has a huge variety of cafes, restaurants, boutiques, shops and even Coles if you need to stock up on supplies during your stay. The beach is only a short 3 minute walk away and everything Surfers Paradise has to offer is literally at your door step.
Depending on the apartment type you select they are generally well sized and are fully self-contained which means you can make use of the full kitchen and laundry if you really need to during your stay. All apartments have good sized balconies and can offer a range of views including River, Ocean, City and hinterland.
The facilities are 4.5 star and one reason why guests keep coming back year after year, it caters to both couples, older couples as well as families. If you take the lifts to level 5 you will find a stunning 600m² bell-shaped pool with white sandy beaches surrounded by tropical landscaped gardens, there are private sun-baking areas and a health pavilion which has an indoor 25m heated lap pool as well as a large outdoor lap pool. Of course there are all the other extras like a spa, gym and club lounge but the kids will defiantly love the games room which features arcade machines, air hockey, pool tables and more.
Chevron Renaissance Surfers Paradise defiantly scored well on our list for Gold Coast Accommodation it ticked all the right boxes, great location, modern, 4.5 star facilities.. what else could you ask for?

Gold Coast Accommodation, Sun City Surfers Paradise

One of Surfers Paradise’s top family resorts would have to be Sun City located in Ocean Avenue, Surfers Paradise, Gold Coast just one street from the beach and a leisurely 5-10 minute stroll to the shopping, dining and entertainment district of Cavill Avenue.

What we like so much about Sun City Resort is the flexibility of the location, just far enough out of town to enjoy a quiet night in but also close enough to explore all the hustle and bustle of Surfers Paradise which is great because it offers the flexibility of being able to accommodation to both families and couples.

The resort is rated 4.5 star and contains 1, 2 and 3 bedroom self-contained apartments. The location is fantastic and the views to die for! Most apartments offer private balconies with breathtaking direct ocean or hinterland views. 

The hotel features unique Aztec-inspired architecture and design which is planned around lush tropical gardens, the facilities on offer are sure to keep you entertained during your stay and include an indoor pool and spa, tennis court, Sayas Mexican Restaurant and Calmer Therapies Day Spa… So why has it made it to the list of our top family resorts? Check out the amazing lagoon style pool which comes complete with snake-like waterslides- I’m pretty sure this will keep the kids entertained for hours on end!

If you’re a family or two couples travelling for more than just a few nights you won’t want to spend it cramped up in a hotel room, one thing that Sun City defiantly offers is space, the apartments here are huge and fully self-contained with a full sized kitchen, lounge, dining area and big comfortable bedrooms.

Coastal Holiday Rentals have a selection of apartments available for holiday rental in this fantastic family resort, you can view them here. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed!
