Apartment in Main Beach
Fabulous Studio in Main
Great little studio apartment in the heart of Main Beach. Centrally located so you can park your car and walk to Tedder Avenue, Southport Surf Lifesaving Club, Southport Yacht Club, and Marina Mirage if you wish. Enjoy the beach, the boats, the restaurants and just walking around Main Beach. If you want to go further afield Southport is to the north, and Surfers Paradise to your south. Suitable getaway for one or two people only, but what the place lacks in space it makes up for in character.

Your guide to Surfers Paradise

All About Surfers Paradise

Surfers Paradise truly lives up to its name. This action-packed and expansive coastal strip located in Queensland’s Gold Coast boasts a glittering skyline and vast stretches of powder-soft sand and crystalline beaches, mixing the exhilarating energy of a city with the peacefulness of a beach town.

Beyond the area’s iconic beaches is a thriving arts and cultural scene. The bustling Cavill Avenue is the shopping centre of the city, and if you work up an appetite, you’ll be spoiled for choice with a diverse selection of eateries. For vibrant nightlife, head to Orchid Avenue: a street studded with bars, clubs, restaurants, and music venues. There is no shortage of activities to take in and enjoy in this electrifying coastal city.


The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Surfers Paradise

Surfers Paradise boasts a year-round tropical climate, and clear days are best spent on the beach. The city experiences its highest rainfall during January and February, so be sure to pack some rain jackets if you plan on visiting around this time. If visiting between June and September, you might catch a glimpse of the annual whale migration.

Surfers Paradise hosts a variety of events throughout the seasons. During the third week of March, Surfers Paradise hosts an exquisitely curated arts festival that transforms the beachfront into a vibrant gallery showcasing large-scale works from national and international artists. The Gold Coast Film Festival takes place for a week in April, where films and panels are brought pop-up cinemas and venues across the Gold Coast, including Surfers Paradise. Since the city is graced with such pleasant weather year-round, it’s always a great time to book Surfers Paradise holiday houses and explore the beachside attractions.


Top things to do in Surfers Paradise

SkyPoint Observation Deck

Make your way to the top two floors of Q1, Australia’s tallest building, to take in a stunning panoramic view of the Surfers Paradise skyline, the further hinterlands, and the swell. Located 270 metres above sea level, you can stay inside the SkyPoint Observation Deck or strap into a harness and take an adventurous climb in the open air. While you’re enjoying the bird’s eye view, you can enjoy a meal or drink at the attached bistro. The observation deck is also open at night if you’d prefer a dreamy view of the city lights and their dazzling reflections across the water.

Surfers Paradise Beachfront Markets

Every Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday evening, the beachfront transforms into an exciting night market. Explore more than 100 unique stalls featuring fresh seasonal produce, boutique and vintage clothing, housewares, handmade jewellery, and other artisan goods.
