Paradise Resort Gold Coast

Voted Australia’s best family resort 10 years running in the Holidays with Kids Best Resorts Awards, Paradise Resort Gold Coast is renowned as a heaven for kids and a paradise for parents. With an ice-skating rink, water park and kids’ club all on site, and just a few minutes’ walk from the heart of Surfer’s Paradise, there are obvious reasons why it is such a well-loved resort.

Paradise Resort is one of those must-visit places for every family, regardless of how old the kiddies, and is renowned as a ‘cruise ship on land’. This place is a mecca of holiday fun with an ice-skating rink, waterpark, kids’ club, laser tag, daily activities, and loads of entertainment offered all year round, not to mention it’s only a few short metres from the iconic Surfer’s Paradise beach. Plus, the resort has recently undergone a major renovation, with new bar and dining outlets and added plus an online ordering system so you can order your meals and cocktails from your poolside lounge.

There are also heaps of amazing activities, including a miniature train, teen zone for the older kids and, coming later this year, is an adults-only lap pool and lounge bar. Take my money now! So, while the resort is famous for its onsite Kids Club, which caters for children 0-12years, the newly added teen zone ensures children 13-17 are taken care of as well so that parents can also have a much-needed break.

The resort offers a range of hotel style accommodation throughout its 360 guest rooms catering for families as large as up to eight, including the popular themed Junior and King Bunkhouse rooms which feature brightly painted bunk beds and family rooms with a second smaller bedroom.
