“This resort places you within easy reach of Surfers Paradise, yet offers a distinct sense of escape with its riverside setting and landscaped gardens. Apartments come equipped with full kitchens, a real advantage for families or longer stays. I think the availability of tennis courts and both heated pools and spa services add considerable value, especially at this price point.”
