Top Southern Cross University - Gold Coast Hotel Reviews

Nirvana By The Sea

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing experience at Nirvana by the Sea. From the minute we arrived - the staff are all just so delightful and helpful. Our room was ready early and we were notified so were able to check in earlier. Access to beach directly across the road, and what a beautiful beach it is. We didnt use any of the facilities on offer such at the steam room, gym, pool or spa, or the cinema, but we did have a good look at them all. Extremely well maintained and kept. The position was perfect and walking distance to lots of amazing eateries. We tried several and every bite of food we has was amazing. We re-booked when we checked out. Cant wait to go back when the weather is warmer."
