Our review on Sierra Grand Resort located at Broadbeach


Sierra Grand Resort is located in the heart of trendy Broadbeach at the corner of Margaret Avenue and Surf Parade. No need for a hire car here as your only metres from spectacular beaches, the Gold Coast Convention Centre, Jupiter’s Casino, Pacific Fair and all the restaurants, bars, cafes and shops that Broadbeach has to offer. Sierra Grand Resort at Broadbeach is the Ideal holiday location for families and friends as well as couples and professionals visiting the Gold Coast.
If you’re looking for an ultra-modern, contemporary resort then you’re sure to be impressed by Sierra Grand, newly completed in June 2008 the resort has been rated 4.5 star and has excellent facilities and luxury accommodation including 1,2 and 3 bedroom apartments.
Usually it’s only the older style resorts that still offer full-sized tennis courts so we were surprised to find full sized all weather tennis courts here at Sierra Grand Resort. The other facilities available to guests include a stunning indoor heated lap pool and spa, outdoor swimming pool and spa (both heated which is excellent if you have small children or visiting during winter), pool side BBQ facilities, sauna and steam room, 25-seater private theatre and state of the art fully equipped gymnasium.
We had heard the views from the 25th level sky garden were impressive and we were not disappointed, defiantly to take a trip up to Sierra Grands Sky Garden during your stay to appreciate the stunning views for yourself. Watch the sunset over the Gold Coast hinterland with a special someone or your family, it is a simply breathtaking moment.
Sierra Grand Resort is very modern with plush fixtures and furnishings throughout, you enter through an impressive foyer area which leads past the indoor pool to the lifts that take you up to your desired floor level.
Sierra Grand resort boasts 30 floors of luxury accommodation, the apartments are spacious, contemporary and offer stunning views of either the ocean or hinterland and river. Both the kitchens and bathrooms are of very high quality, bedrooms are roomy (with built in room safes) and wardrobes. The 2 bedroom apartments at Sierra Grand Resort feature luxurious ensuites with double basins.
For extended stays you will enjoy the flexibility of being able to prepare meals in house as each apartment within Sierra Grand at Broadbeach features large spacious kitchens that come fully equipped with all the necessary appliances and utensils you could possible need to create a romantic dinner for two or large feast for the family. There is also a full laundry with washing machine and dryer should you require it.
The apartments within Sierra Grand resort are all open plan, filled with an abundance of natural light and offer guests luxury finishing touches such as ducted air-conditioning, LCD Televisions, CD players, DVD home theatre systems and wide open spacious balconies with fantastic views. If you do plan on hiring or bring a car parking at Sierra Grand Resort is not an issue as underground secure car parking is provided at no additional cost.
Even with such a central location Sierra Grand resort is very quiet and private inside which means this wonderful hotel can also accommodate couples seeking a romantic Broadbeach beachside escape.
Overall we were very impressed with the standard of accommodation and facilities on offer at Sierra Grand Resort and thought the location couldn’t get much better. You can take a short stroll and be right in the heart of Broadbeach or sitting on one of the Gold Coast stunning golden beaches. The Broadbeach Surf Club isn’t far away which is a great spot for a lazy Sunday lunch after a day of shopping or exploring. Directly underneath Sierra Grand Resort is also Mezzanine Broadbeach restaurant which offers modern Australia cuisine at very affordable prices.
In a nut shell if you’re seeking luxurious modern accommodation, a central Broadbeach location and affordable room rates then Sierra Grand Resort should defiantly be on the top of your list!
