Gold Coast Accommodation Budget Deals

Queensland's Gold Coast welcomes many thousands of tourist visitors every year. Most stay along the Pacific coastline in hotels or self catering apartment blocks. Last minute booking is one way to get budget deals on accommodation, as is showing flexibility about which hotel or suburb you wish to stay in. Often the best way to find a good price is to search a specialist Australian hotel booking website to find a Gold Coast accommodation budget deal.

There are a large number of hotels and self catering complexes to choose from, when booking Gold Coast accommodation. Self catering accommodation is usually found in self contained apartments, in blocks or complexes of various sizes. Apartments are usually from one to three bedrooms, with kitchen and laundry facilities.

Some of the largest apartment complexes are found in Surfers Paradise, which is famous for its high rise skyline. Directly over Surfers' Centro Shopping Centre one can find the Paradise Centre Apartments. The accommodation is in two thirty storey towers, and all apartments have a view of the Pacific Ocean. All the apartments here have either two or three bedrooms, and are air conditioned, with cable TV. The complex is close to Main Beach, which is reached via a pedestrian walkway.

Discount deals can be found at Paradise Centre: the best deal requires mid-week arrival, minimum stay just two nights. Apartments here have fully equipped kitchens, and laundry facilities. There are two pools and one paddling pool at Paradise Centre. Other facilities include tennis courts and putting green.

Also in Surfers Paradise, but rather smaller then Paradise Centre is the twenty apartment Surfers Del Rey Riverfront Complex. With its own private jetty, this is a relaxed location. All rooms have a view of either the river, the pool, or the central courtyard with tropical garden.

Although its location is quiet and relaxed, Surfers Del Rey is near to the important spots in Surfers Paradise: the beach, and the Cavill Avenue zone. Most of the good nightlife and shopping is found around Cavill. Surfers Del Rey is also close to the Gold Coast Highway, and it is easy to reach other parts of Gold Coast via that route.

If you can be flexible about your hotel and/or resort then you can get a good deal with a "Secret Stay" hotel. You won't know the hotel's name or its exact location until after the booking is made, but you can check details such as how far is it to the beach, will you have an ocean view etc. You will also know the star rating (4 or 5 stars) of the hotel. Hotels in Gold Coast use "Secret Stay" to offer rooms at low rates, and guests can get very good bargains here.

Deals such as "Secret Stay" deals and last minute booking deals can be found via any good Australian/New Zealand hotel booking website. Please be aware of restrictions such as minimum number of nights, and that "Secret Stay" deals are usually non changeable/non refundable.
