Our 2 bedroom unit was clean and well appointed. We had dinner in the cafe on site and the food was fantastic and staff were great. The only things we thought would make a difference would be a lift to get luggage to the 3rd floor. The pool was also on the cool side for young children tio swim in.... more

We stayed at the Turtle Beach resort with friends. The Turtle Beach resort is on the opposite side of the Gold Coast Highway to the beach meaning you have to cross a very busy road in order to get to the beach. Also about a 5 min drive to Pacific Fair and 10 mins to Central Surfers Paradise. Overall the... more

We had a two bedroom unit on the 3rd floor (stair access only). Room was ok. Cooking utensils not cleaned. The pools were cleaned and maintained everyday and kid friendly. There are two restaurants at the resort - would recommend the pizza very nice. Public transport right out the front, however as its on the highway it gets very busy,... more

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in a 2-bedroom apartment for the 1st week in April. Weather not great while we were there, rained a lot, but still warm. The room was clean and showed very little signs of wear. The lounge chairs were replaced with new cushions while we were there as were the bedspreads. Very nice, good quality ones... more

This place was very good value for money. Nice self contained appartments with a nice cafe and pizza bar. You also could use many of the BBQ's on hand and enjoy mini golf or a swim in many of the pools on the location. We really enjoyed ourselves. Despite many young kids running around the place we had a nice... more

Really i think that turtle beach should undersell on the internet, because it totally killed my impressions of what i was going to receive when i got there.... so called 4.5 star resort! From my experience at turtle beach resort the day we arrived in reception we were greeted by some of the most unfriendly & unhelpfull staff who could... more

I recently had a three night stay at Turtle Beach with four children aged 8, 9, 13 and 16 years old. We stayed in a three bedroom townhouse and was very happy with the accommodation -nice in size and located right next to a tennis court and pool. The townhouse was very clean although a few marks on the walls... more
