The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Spacious & Clean!

I checked into Emerald Sands for a weekend getaway and was pleasantly surprised by the huge two-bedroom apartment. It was impeccably clean and had all the necessary equipment in working order. While the bathroom door didn’t lock, it didn’t take away from my overall experience. The fresh air from outside made the absence of air conditioning a non-issue. I'd definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for comfort!

Beachfront Relaxation

During our stay, the beach access was a highlight. I loved walking along the shoreline with stunning views. The heated pool was the cherry on top after a long day of exploring. It was fantastic to unwind in the water while taking in the serene atmosphere. Definitely a perfect spot for relaxation!

Hassle-Free Parking

I really appreciated the free underground secure car parking at Emerald Sands. It gave me peace of mind knowing my vehicle was safe throughout my stay. This convenience allows you to explore the area without worrying about your car, making the trip more enjoyable!

Fantastic Views!

The views from the apartment were absolutely amazing—truly a highlight of my stay! It was lovely to enjoy the scenery from the comfort of my room. I would sit on the balcony and just soak it all in at any time of the day. It added a special touch to my entire experience!

The hotel offers a great view in the one-bedroom ocean view apartment, with a good-sized room despite some light coming through at night. It might get a bit cool, but extra blankets are available in the cupboard. The service was overall very good and helpful, although there was a minor issue with parking. The location is ideal, close to all the highlights of Surfers Paradise yet peaceful, with various attractions within walking distance. The dining experience was pleasant. The hotel boasts excellent facilities for relaxation and entertainment.

The hotel was marvelous with everything you require included in the room, although basic supplies like Toilet paper, washer powder, and dish washing liquid need to be purchased separately. The staff were lovely and easy to chat with, always with a smile and a cheerful hello. The location was perfect being near two patrolled beaches and within walking distance to main areas. The dining experience was very nice, especially the cold buffet dishes. A peaceful oasis close to the beach, offering a comfortable stay with friendly service.

The apartment was a fantastic find, offering a beautiful ocean view and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The location was ideal, close to the beach but away from the busy central area. The service was exceptional, making me feel welcome and well taken care of, particularly when they showed me to my apartment. The dining options were lovely, especially the fish and chips, and the facilities like the pool were a plus. However, the proximity to Hooters slightly affected the overall appeal of the area.

Rooms

The apartment I stayed in for 10 days was wonderful with an ocean view. It was bright and airy, but maybe a bit too much light when trying to sleep. It had all the essential amenities like a dishwasher, microwave, washing machine, iron, and vacuum.

Location

I did not expect a two-story apartment, which was a great surprise! The location was excellent, just far enough from Surfers CBD to avoid the hustle and bustle but still convenient for everything. Being right on the beach was a major highlight, although the presence of Hooters down the road was a bit off-putting.
