Below you will find a selection of places to stay in Surfers Paradise to suit all budgets.
Before you make any bookings, keep in mind that the nightclub area – in and around Orchid Avenue and Cavill Avenue – can be particularly noisy at night, so you may want to consider accommodation slightly away from this precinct, or at least at a higher level.
Traffic noise from the Gold Coast Highway may also bother light sleepers if staying too close-by.
