Sandcastles on the Broadwater

Close to everything

Great location by the beach

We recently stayed here with my in-laws and had a mixed experience. We booked a 2-bedroom apartment, and they had originally booked a 1-bedroom but were given a complimentary upgrade to a 2-bedroom. Their apartment looked recently updated and matched the photos online, while ours felt quite dated in comparison. The carpets and blankets didn’t feel particularly clean, which was a bit disappointing. On the positive side, the apartment was very spacious, which made it manageable and comfortable staying with two young children. The location was also excellent—close to the theme parks and Harbour Town, which was super convenient. Parking, however, was an issue for us. Our hire van was too tall to fit in the underground parking, and finding a spot on the street was extremely difficult. Overall, the stay had its ups and downs. The location and space were great, but the difference in room quality and parking challenges took away from the overall experience.

Lovely view of the Broadwater. Close to many facilities. Secure parking.

The owners were lovely to speak to and was always helpful when we needed something. Couldn’t fault our time there.

Loved the clean and well maintained pool and bbq area. The view from the room was fantastic. Better attention to cleanliness in the room woud of made the stay better

Great communication, lovely managers onsite at reception. Spacious, clean, simple but lovely family friendly accommodation. Great pool as well!

Loved it will be going back next year

Very friendly staff

Had everything we needed. Will come back again Thank you

The staff member at check in was friendly and helpful. The location is fantastic, amd we were lucky enough to have a room with water views and a balcony to have dinner and watch the summer storms roll in. Even though it is situated near the highway, we could not hear any traffic noise inside, nor noise from any other apartment. The room was clean and spacious. It is close to shops and not far from the centre of Surfers Paradise. The amenities such as the pool and gym are great as is the allocated parking spot. The only thing that would make it better would be a lift so that people who are unable to walk up stairs could stay. We enjoyed our visit, and would be happy to stay again.

Family friendly apartment, close to beach, very convenient position

It was an old but well-maintained establishment, making it clean and comfortable. We plan to return since it is affordable and conveniently located.

We had 2 apartments for ourselves and family, both apartments were very clean and comfortable with everything you would need for a long stay. Nice out look towards the beach. Also had a swimming pool and free underground car park.

Thanks heaps for an awesome stay, was a great place and super chill. Other guests were super friendly too. Loved the lizard too!

Loved everything about this place.

Property old, tired and lacked storage of clothing and luggage. Cleanliness and maintenance does not match the price. No lifts from carpark to apartment. We requested an apartment with less flight of stairs but did not get one.

Sandcastles Apartments are great for a family holiday. The pool is amazing, the grounds are well kept, the ladies on reception are fantastic and the location is good if you want to be out of the hustle and bustle of Surfers but close enough to everything. I would stay here again but I would request a different apartment. We had a ground floor apartment right on the main road and it was very noisy, especially cars taking off from the traffic lights late at night right outside our bedroom. The apartment was also in need of some refurbishments and repairs. We did get this apartment at a great price for the week so that may have been taken into account and I would say that the value outweighed the negatives. All in all, great stay on the Gold Coast! Thank You!

We had a great time with my family in the 3 bedroom spa apartment was very spacious and comfortable for a 5 day getaway very close to the shops and dining areas great location. Beautiful pool and bbq area aswell. Lady at the reception was veey helpful also and accomidating with late check in. Thank you

We really enjoyed our stay. Great swimming pool and close to shopping
