Strand-Hotels in Queensland, Australien

As a solo traveler I highly recommend Magnum's as a safe, well located and value for money accommodation provider. Great service, facilities and fantastically located. With Woolworths next door, well stocked and clean kitchen and great adjacent coffee shop, my needs were well met. Even with the pub pumping at full blast, there was no noise interrupting a peaceful sleep. Will definitely be back!

Lovely hotel located at the other end of the Esplanade. The broad walk at the back of the hotel was nice to stroll along and an easy way to get to the city center. Kudos to the reception staff, Riccardo for leaving a really good first impression when I first arrived. He was so clear in explaining everything I needed to know before I checked in, and subsequent days when I saw him he was also really helpful with whatever requests I had. The room was big and spacious, very comfy beds!! The housekeeping staff were also friendly whenever I saw them as I head out for the day. Food from the room service was tasty. However, the breakfast buffet options were almost the same everyday though, wish there could have been more variety. But overall, I still had a rather pleasant stay here(:

Exceptional Luxury with Thoughtful Tech and Standout Service I recently stayed at the Dorsett Gold Coast, and it was an outstanding experience. The level of detail across the property is highly visible, making for a stay that feels both premium and personalized. A Seamless Arrival The check-in experience set a fantastic tone. We were warmly greeted and offered welcome drinks at the Jin Café & Bar, which was a lovely touch. While we navigated the parking, the porter took our luggage directly to our room, allowing us to settle in stress-free. Speaking of parking, while it is $20 per night, it is worth every cent for the convenience. The ”in and out” process is incredibly seamless because the staff enters your registration number into the system, so you never have to worry about tickets or delays. Standout Service: Special Thanks to Sona The service here is truly top-tier. I want to give a huge mention to Sona at reception, who was incredibly helpful throughout our entire stay. Her professionalism and warmth were much appreciated. Furthermore, the speed of the reception service for any phone requests was impressive—they are lightning-fast. The ”Smart” Room Details The room design features some ”genius” touches that I haven't seen elsewhere: * The Smart Mirror: The bathroom mirror has a specialized coating so that even after a steaming hot shower, a specific section remains perfectly clear. * Auto Night Light: The bathroom has an automatic night light that activates on its own—perfect for navigating at night without fumbling for switches. * The in room switches was also very thoughtful and unique, for the first time experienced such. * The Chromecast casting tech was great as you can stream what you like. Dining & Relaxation The pool area is absolutely fancy and stunning—a perfect spot to lounge. We also enjoyed the hearty buffet breakfast at the Star Grand; it’s a great spread, though I’d love to see a few more vegetarian varieties added to the hot selection. Constructive Feedback To make the experience truly 5-star across the board, there are two areas for improvement: * In-Room Appliances: The hairdryer and iron felt quite basic and didn't really match the premium, high-tech vibe of the hotel. * Poolside Dining: While the pool itself is beautiful, the restaurant menu there is very limited and almost negligible. More food variety by the water would be a big plus. Overall, a fantastic stay. Between the tech, the parking ease, and the wonderful service from Sona, I would definitely recommend the Dorsett!

Sehr schönes Hotel, ich habe meinen Aufenthalt genossen. Sie können schlafen und dem Rauschen des Meeres lauschen. Das Restaurant ist ziemlich gut und das Servicepersonal ist sehr freundlich.

After reading very mixed reviews, we went ahead and booked it. The result: very mixed feelings. The location was beautiful, the sights breathtaking, the animals adorable, but when it came to actually spending time there, there wasn’t much to do. We arrived on a later ferry so we knew we wouldn’t have much time to enjoy the sun after arrival, however because of a mix up, our suitcases went missing for an hour making us miss any chance of getting in the pool while it was hot out. After, we went for dinner. There are only 2 restaurants available, and without making a reservation before hand, it’s a bit hard to go when you want. The food was ok, but expensive as one would expect from a place like this. Once dinner was finished, the evening entertainment (Alice in Wonderland screening) was already underway and we found ourselves with nothing to do at 9pm. Early night for us. The following day we planned a day of snorkelling, stingray feeding and kayaking. We appreciated the free snorkel gear as well as the clear safety instructions and recommendations of the lifeguard. The sting Ray feeding experience was amazing and it was clear the staff knew what they were talking about and were passionate about the animals. Kayaking and other water sports were cancelled however because of the high winds, leaving us, once again, with nothing to do. Early dinner (very entertaining moment with wallabies attempting to steal our food and being super cuddly), a walk around the beach, movie in the room, and early bedtime. So all in all, beautiful location with great experiences of the weather allow, make sure to bring some entertainment if the water is too cold to swim in the pool or the weather turns sour. Maybe a book or some board games? Also: if you want food in the late afternoon, make sure you bring some snacks as there is a limited selection available.

Es ist schön und ruhig, und ziemlich komfortabel, aber es gibt noch eine Menge Haare auf dem Boden, und es sieht nicht super sauber aus. Das Personal schien ein wenig verwirrt mit der Information, aber es ist alles gut. Erwarte nicht nur fünf-Sterne-Service, das ist alles.

Rein und komfortabel mit tollen Kücheneinrichtungen im Zimmer. Schamlich waren wir in grausam Wetter, weil die Lage und der Zugang zum Strand war großartig. Alter Gebäude, aber gut gepflegt. Kurzstreckensee nach Stadtzentrum und Geschäften. Überall würde ich für jeden auf der Suche nach einem Strandseiteurlaub empfehlen. Aussehen aus unserem Zimmer wäre in besserem Wetter groß gewesen. Wir waren dankbar, trocken und komfortabel zu sein!

The location is a bit far from city if u don’t have a car but can call 13cab to go somewhere. It’s surrounded by Coles and many restaurants. Also has a park nearby. Cleanliness is very good! Everything we need they already provided, it’s be great if they provide microwave and slippers too. I spent 2 nights, everything is totally awesome! I’d recommend to my friends for sure. Their service is 10/10 appreciated that

Mission Reef Resort befindet sich direkt neben dem Strand und ist die perfekte Lage für einen ruhigen kurzen Urlaub.

Es ist ein etwas seltsames Hotel. Die Zimmer sind einfach und etwas veraltet, Moteltyp, aber trotzdem sind der Restaurantbereich, der Pool (der lange machen lässt) und der Garten sehr gepflegt und sehr schön. Es hat direkten Zugang zum Strand von Mission Beach, der sehr schön ist und 5-10 Minuten zu Fuß von der Gegend entfernt ist, in der sich Geschäfte und Restaurants befinden. Frühstück ein bisschen faul, einen Aufpreis für einen Express berechnen.
