Top Hotels in Queensland Resorts
The best available Resorts to stay near Queensland
Some of Queensland’s most remarkable sights require you to leave terra firma. Off its coast sits the Great Barrier Reef, the world's largest coral reef. Snorkel and scuba among 1500 resident fish species, or sail through the Whitsundays’ white-sand atolls. Back on dry land, you’ll find tropical escapes in the Daintree Rainforest to the north, rugged outback to the west and alfresco dining on the Gold Coast in the south. South East Queensland boasts mountain views, vineyards and ‘river city’ Brisbane.

1. Rhapsody Resort
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1407 reviews
Drawing inspiration from the sea, Rhapsody’s designers have created a dynamic beachside apartment address. A sophisticated architectural statement reminiscent of grand vessels from a bygone era. A building of two distinct architectonic elements encased in a dramatic corten steel street level hull, destined to become the signature of the Surfers North precinct in Surfers Paradise, Australia.
A nice home away from home
Reviewed By AmymiaomiaoThis is a nice and cozy resort for holiday stay, home away from home. There are a number of things that I love about Rhapsody: 1. Daily housekeeping service to keep the apartment nice and shine everyday and we came back with clean towels. 2. The king size bed in master room is so huge and comfortable. 3. Lovely sea view plus water view at the back 4. Parking is provided for which is essential as it is hard to find on Surfers Paradise 5. The front desk is friendly and always helpful 6. Kids’ room is also lovely and the kids enjoyed their own little space. I just love staying at Rhapsody resort each time we go to Gold Coast. It is a second home for us. Thank you!

Great place to stay
Reviewed By valeriem509The location is great with many shops, restaurant's and other activities to choose from. Being so close to beautiful clean beaches and walkways just added to our stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful and our 3 bedroom apartment was very nice and well appointed. Having good secure undercover car parking with easy access was appreciated. This is our second stay at Mantra Twin Towns and we are looking forward to returning in the near future. The only downside was poor internet.

Top notch views
Reviewed By PH182Our stay at the Q1 was breathtaking from the moment we could see it in the distance as we drove across the Qld/NSW border. Reception service was friendly and efficient. Our booking was 2 x 2 bedroom Ocean Spa apartments, which we were told would be allocated to use the same lift and our cards activated so that we could travel between floors. When we arrived, we had been assigned different lifts but the staff quickly offered to remedy this. We decided it wasn't a big deal as one family would have a higher floor and better view. In hindsight, the same lift would have been better as some of us experienced a bit of vertigo which we think was due to the frequent trips from floor 36 to the lobby and then straight back up to floor 49. The lifts were quick, we didn't have to wait long even at peak times. The indoor pool and Longboards were a great addition to our stay. All common areas were always clean. Our room, 3604 had doors quite close to the lifts. We were pleasantly surprised when there was zero lift noise during the entire stay. The room was huge and the highlight would have had to have been that killer view. 270 degrees with views of Stradbroke Island to the North and down to Coolangatta to the South. The sunsets had us up early, even though there were blockout blinds but we were glad to witness them. Big frosted glass sliding doors to each bedroom meant that the sunlight came in early and it was quite warm. Being able to open up the balcony doors and windows meant it was always comfortable with the breeze flowing through. Everything was clean and the apartment had everything we needed in the kitchen and laundry. A short walk into surfers paradise meant we always had something to do and the convenience store, BWS and takeaway shops downstairs were handy.

WORST HOTEL
Reviewed By 988baWorst hotel with horrible service FULL OF LIES!!! 2hr late Check in! This apparently seems to happen a lot. Didn’t get into room till 5pm they kept lying on reasons why the rooms were not ready! There was like 50 people waiting In the lobby on their rooms. There is barely any seating within the lobby many having to spend hours on the floor. Room wasn’t the cleanest when eventually got in it. Shower head thing was loose and couldn’t even take a shower properly. Can hear lots of noise via hallways and door slamming. Wouldn’t recommend these issues happen a lot When I looked at reviews online. And to top it off they went and cancelled my booking at 2am just so I wasn’t able to leave a Review via the website I booked via. Scammers

Chrome hubcaps on a rusted 97 Toyota Corolla
Reviewed By AKLanderWe stayed at a multi generational family with young kids and grandparents. Two seperate rooms; one on the Bay Wing ground floor that is in desperate need of an upgrade. To access the Bay Wing from the entrance you need to take two sets of ramps or stairs, I wouldn’t say this is a pram or accessible friendly resort. *Character Meets: there is a guide in the room that is “subject to change” however what we experienced was just lazy and unorganised. The kids queued for an hour to be first for the Ninja Turtles only for some weird Banana to show up 5 mins late. Needless to say my children were not the only ones disappointed. There needs to be better communication to the guests about the experience they’re getting. *Paper thin walls and floors. You can hear every noise and peep. *Ants within the bathroom *Pool area is in need of a major reno - pool and play area is great for the kids though (see below) *Shower over tub without adequate protection to keep the water from spraying all through the bathroom - tiles are questionably slip rated. * Door lock failed multiple times leaving us stranded at the door Pool: we enjoyed the splash pad area for the kids. Easy to have a play after the parks and have a short run back to the room. Overall area is shabby, to call yourself a resort I would expect a higher level of standard in the relaxation areas. Kitchenette: basic bowels and cutlery but I would have expected a toaster, dish brush and a proper knife in a kitchenette. Melrose: a nice family restaurant. Quick, easy and basic food. All that is needed after a day at the parks. Waterfront Cafe: good takeaway style food and a good spot to catch the sunset. A little expensive for what you get. Lobby Cafe: very weak coffee and milky. We have to go outside of the hotel and SeaWorld/MovieWorld to get a decent coffee. I recommend Sens Coffee in Southport or Jamaica Blue in HarbourTown Outlets. Shorelines: we chose not to eat there. We couldn’t justify the cost. We hear mixed reviews from other guests in the hotel. Staff: the team on the front desk are friendly and we’re apologetic towards incidents. For the resort style hotel they’re going for I would have expected a doorperson/greeter for cars. Instead the Concierge is tucked behind a desk. Parking: adequate but limited. Specific parking for larger vehicles would be a good improvement. The primary benefit is the location and proximity to SeaWorld; if you’re not getting a package deal then I would imagine that other resorts would be a better option. We stayed on an attractive inclusive package with park tickets so for value paid we overlooked some issues to give 2 stars review. I would rate SeaWorld resort a 3 star hotel. Not quite a resort, but not quite a motel.

Justice to its name!
Reviewed By 781sidneidmAs soon as we stepped foot into our room we were both mesmerised by the beautiful views it offered us. With the big balcony doors and a window on the side, we had both city and ocean views. A shout out to the Housekeeping Team who did not miss a spot and made the room spotless.
