It’s easy to spend your days at Surfers Paradise Beach on the Gold Coast: start with a swim and a wander along the foreshore, savour dinner nearby, then finish by admiring the beach at sunset. Stay in the thick of it at Mantra Towers of Chevron Surfers Paradise with spacious apartments, a large lagoon pool and the Chevron Renaissance precinct just downstairs. Here’s why this resort is a paradise beside Surfers Paradise.
These spacious apartments have everything you’ll need
Want to come back from a day on the beach to all the comforts of home? In every one-, two- or three-bedroom apartment is a modern kitchen, separate living and dining spaces with lots of room to spread out, and laundry facilities to clean salty clothes at the end of the day. Start with breakfast when you rise each day, take a break between outings, then gather everyone together before heading out again.
For the height of glamour, the Three-Bedroom Superior Sub Penthouse is the place to be. Set on the 34th floor, this expansive apartment unrivalled views of the thriving resort and the sparkling ocean just waiting to be savoured from the private balcony.
When the beach can wait, the pool is ready
The aptly named ‘Beaches in the Sky’ is an expansive lagoon pool perched on the 6th floor of the resort, complete with sandy shores and tropical palm trees swaying in the breeze. It’s a great spot to spend some downtime with the family after a day on the beach: the little ones can play in the sand or get out some energy at the children’s playground, while the big kids can sit on a sun lounger with a book in hand or unwind in the serene hot tub.
When a more active swim takes your fancy, Mantra Towers of Chevron Surfers Paradise also has both outdoor and indoor lap pools to suit every mood. Relax in the sauna afterwards and rest those tired muscles.
Follow your appetite through Chevron Renaissance
It’s easy to find something to eat: just head downstairs. With Chevron Renaissance directly below your apartment, you can leave the car behind and decide on dinner as the mood takes you. Families won’t have to worry about picky eaters with Italian favourites, classic burgers and sushi on offer, while parents can treat themselves to mouth-watering Thai, Balinese and Cajun street food. Plus, the glamorous Hotel Jardin restaurant is the perfect spot for a more upscale Pan-Asian feast.
But Chevron Renaissance isn’t just a dining hub. Here, you’ll find a supermarket, spa, medical centre, car park, art gallery and even an escape room.
Choose your beach mood: Surfers Paradise or Broadbeach
Surfers Paradise Beach is a short stroll away. Follow the signed access tracks to the sand for a swim near the lifeguard towers or take a walk along the foreshore before heading back to ‘Beaches in the Sky’. On Wednesday, Friday and Saturday evenings, the Surfers Paradise Beachfront Markets bring more than 100 stalls and live entertainment to the Esplanade – an easy way to stretch an evening without planning a full night out.
When you feel like seeing more of the coast, the G:link tram connects Surfers Paradise with Broadbeach in around 10 minutes. Spend a few hours at Pacific Fair Shopping or explore Broadbeach’s dining precinct, then decide whether to add another neighbourhood to the itinerary – the choice is yours.
