Top Sea World Hotel Reviews

Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Gold Coast

8/10 Good

"Nice place if you want to relax away from the city. Easy access to the beach. But due to being built in old infrastructure there wasn’t any exhaust fans working in the bathrooms. The drain in our first room was foaming after using the shower, we brought this up with staff but the issue didn’t seem to get resolved, thankfully Mitch the duty manager for acknowledging our concern and offered to upgrade our room which we’re very thankful for. Checkout was simple as well thanks to Abraham for assisting us with that and spotting a miscalculation in the invoice."

QT Gold Coast

10/10 Excellent

"Great little get away for a girls trip with my young daughter. The room was spacious, clean and well maintained. Unfortunately the weather was not kind to us which meant we didn’t get to use the pool. However having the cafe and restaurants just downstairs was very handy. Loved that it was close to the main area of surfers yet just far enough away to enjoy a more relaxed vibe. We will definitely be back. Staff were super friendly, helpful and polite."
