Meriton Suites Broadbeach

Gold Coast


The golden pegasus on the lawn between the indoor and outdoor pools is the only concession to quirkiness at this tastefully but demurely furnished complex. Apartments have laundry facilities and proper kitchens with coffee makers and dishwashers. If you get peckish, there's a yum-cha restaurant and convenience store downstairs.
