Find the Cheap Coolangatta Hotels

Our check in was on a Saturday. Reception is not manned for weekend check ins - received a text with a code to the key safe at the front door which contained envelopes for guests checking in. The envelopes contained two sets of keys and fobs, plus instructions for parking and access. After parking the car we made our way to our unit on the fifth floor, using the fob. In the unit, was a well appointed kitchen, living room with dining table and chairs, lounge chairs and large screen TV. The bedroom had a king size bed and side tables, a two door wardrobe, and a small adjoining ensuite. The location of the Meridian Tower was excellent - across the road from the beach, and close to several restaurants and cafes.

The apartment has the Wow factor when you enter it as the view from 1002 is spectacular. We have stayed at various apartments in this building and this has one of the best views. We loved watching the whales from the balcony. We were booked for a 3 week stay and, sadly, the kitchen was lacking. There was no microwaveable dishes and no oven dishes. However, the frying pans were practically new. Nearly all the kitchen cupboards were empty. I like to use table mats and coasters to protect the property but there were none. The lounge furniture was very comfortable. I'd like to suggest a table lamp or subdued lighting would be good on an evening. It was a beautiful apartment just not very homely. The mattresses in the master bedroom could do with being renewed. I probably wouldn't have noticed any discomfort for a short stay but after 3 weeks, it was telling. We would return to Iconic Kirra as we love the location and apartment size.

Convenient location for traveling. The staff is welcoming. The toilet is very nice. It was a wonderful stay.

A crisp, white apartment but only one towel to last for the week. When I asked for additional I was told it was going to cost $10 per towel. Talk about disappointing. I have never stayed at a place that is so stingy! My daughter uses two towels when she showers, one for her body and one for her hair. We also had to use the towel to mop up the leaking shower. When I mentioned this they couldn't have cared less. With two Queensland Blokes running the show, it's no wonder they had no idea what the needs were of their guests. They told me ”You have a washing machine and dryer”. Yes but I am ON HOLIDAY do I want to be washing and drying every day, the short answer is NO. Again, did they care, nope, not an iota. The swimming pool looks lovely but its freezing cold so using that was out of the question. When we left I asked if we could stay another 30 minutes and depart at 10.30am. Their answer, (big sigh) I suppose so. Gosh, sorry, I have just stayed here for a week, paid you a big sum of money and that's a problem. When we left, we dropped the keys off and politely said ”goodbye”. In return, we got nothing from them, not even a ”we hope you enjoyed your stay”. We will never stay here again. If the vibe at Reception is bad then not much else is better with this type of accommodation. The only advantage to staying in Coolangatta is the closeness to the airport, the rest of it is a retirement village. You certainly wouldn't go here for the fun and entertainment that the Gold Coast can provide.

We arrived on a Sunday when office closed. Prior to arriving information was sent how to access our apartment. Information easy to follow. We were on the right side of building where we had a partial view front deck the beach side deck ocean. Very pleasant. Apartment 2 bedroom spacious, kitchen all the items we required. Very close to beach and the Surf Club, join and discount prices off meals, drinks. Host and hostess very helpful with information we required. When seen about very cheerful. Pool pleasant. S Supermarkets, one at Coolingata beach other in a mall by Teed Towers. My house had recently knee replacement and he could comfortably walk there

Whilst it’s not the most up market place on the Gold Coast it’s the best value for couple’s, solo, or families. It’s the perfect location between Rainbow Bay and Greenmount Beach. Staff are the friendliest and most helpful I’ve met world wide. Luckily it’s no longer being knocked down for luxury apartment complex so I’ll be able to enjoy many more years there.

The room was very clean. Convenient location is good even if we say anything. The hotel restaurant was ok.

It smelled like a paint. I stayed for two nights. I did n’t clean it after the first night. I did n’t even change the towels and shower gels.

We loved our night in the Artist Suite, It is very retro, loved the decor including the pinball machine and the flamingo bathrobes. We stayed on a Friday night so the music from the bar downstairs was loud. We knew that would be the case so we were ready to dance the night away in our suite...and we did. If you don’t want the noise don’t book this suite, but if you want to have some fun and don’t mind some music until midnight-ish i highly recommend it. (Music was blues/rock). Good recommendations were provided for the local area and the breakfast menu provided for in room service (from a local cafe) is great. The rooftop bar is available even when it isn’t open for service for guests to hang out overlooking the beach. Beds were comfortable, staff friendly, and the whole place has a fun vibe. Highly recommended.
