Paradise Resort Gold Coast

Family friendly, had everything you could need. The late check out option was great.

Basketball court closed

All the kids activities 😍 They were always on the go and entertained. Exhausted at bed time. Very little down time for parent. Aqua view room- you could see kids in the water park from balcony. But very noisy.

Prices of activities. Prices of food. (Expensive++) Small servings for cost

Food: Amazing Food options for the whole family. It was very refreshing to see actual healthy food available for the little ones. Beef, Pasta, Chicken, Mash, tray of fruits etc. Convenience: We didn't leave the hotel for anything on the 2 nights we were there. All is nice and handy. Waterpark: There is a under 5's and over 5's - but of course no parents care to guide their kids and the small ones well-being end up being put at risk. There was actually an accident while we were there where the ambulance had to be called. The build-a-bear session was really good. The breakfast buffet is so good! Amazing value for money and so convenient - but opens at 6:30am. If you have early risers, maybe keep some snacks in the room while you wait. I am not in a rush to come back, but will consider once our son is a bit older.

Not very tailored experience for little ones (under 3's). All the activities that they could do (Carrousel, Train & Ferris Wheel) are only allocated 1 slot a day and during nap times for kids (that after lunch sacred hour). I would suggest at least 2x a day on busy days like weekends. Our son couldn't do any of those in 3 days we stayed there. The playgrounds (both indoor and outdoor) are also zero tailored for the smaller kids. We ended up without activities to entertain our 2y son once he was done in the pool. If you have kids over 5, then it is paradise. Basically, everything costs extra money. Some more, some less. Come prepared because your kid will want to join some of the activities like braid, build a bear, slime making, pizza making etc. The rooms are very noisy. If your party have light sleep, probably not a good stay. Parking is charged separately, which I find very stingy. But again, everything here costs money and they don't hide it.

Nothing. Amenities was convenient for the kids .

The price was very expensive. Old rooms . All activities were attractive to kids but required more costs .
