Shopped here recently while on holidays. Range of shops was excellent and easy to get around. We all had something different to eat for lunch and prices were excellent.

Chose to eat at Billy Baxter's in Caville Ave in Surfers Paradise recently - very unfortunate choice. Food wasn't too bad and price was OK but service was deplorable. There are other restaurants right next door which are much better.

We used Booking.com recently to book accommodation on Gold Coast. The service was excellent, and no booking fee. When I had to contact them by phone the service personnel were excellent.

We stayed at Xanadu Main Beach recently and were pleasantly surprised at the spaciousness and quality of the 2 bed apartment. It also had heated indoor pool, gym and games room which were an added bonus in poor weather.

Approximate cost: $450

People were friendly and helpful, centrally located - lots of information on activities, choices etc.

Approximate cost: $nil

We enjoyed this park - there were lots of rides for everyone from mild to medium to extreme. We went on a wet day so was a bit cold but we had no queues which was good

Approximate cost: $150

We went to Timezone while on holidays on Gold Coast. The area is huge and loaded with games of all types. Excellent value for money - $25 for 3 hours of games.

Approximate cost: $25

We recently flew Jetstar to Gold Coast and back and found the service, price and staff excellent
