Clean and tidy accommodation with easy self check-in via lockbox on arrival and a drop-box for departure. We had a ground-floor room with direct street access, which was really convenient. The motel is in a quiet part of the beach, while Tugun (about 3 km up the road where the Tugun Surf Club is located) is livelier. Parking is parallel and on-street directly in front of the rooms. We also enjoyed a lovely dinner at North Kirra Surf Club just a short walk the other way. The breakfast basket was a nice touch — even though we didn’t use it all, it was much appreciated. Cosy room with everything you need for the night and only a five-minute drive to the airport in the morning. Thank you — highly recommended!

A wonderful stay at La Costa Motel. We stayed in Room 7. A nice selection of breakfast items were provided (including real milk!) and it was lovely meeting Ros.

It didn’t detract from our experience, but note that the area is quite noisy due to it being very close to the airport (planes fly from 6am - 11pm) and because the walls between rooms are quite thin (ours were separated by an internal door). It may be worth bringing ear plugs.

The property is furnished beautifully, loved the additional touches (the beach towels and basket!), the ability to use bikes for free, the gorgeous plants out front etc.

Overall an excellent stay. Thank you :)

Greeted in a friendly efficient manner and made to feel like nothing was too much trouble for the owner.

Not sure why we got twin beds when we were a married couple; but it did not matter as we were only overnighting en route to the Gold Coast Airport.

Lovely selection of breakfast options and other nibbles in our room contributed to the loveliness of the place and so handy to local restaurants and the airport.

I was pleasantly surprised, having expected that the description of it as a 1950s motel was simply an excuse for justifying tired and simple rooms. Diane & John clearly take pride in their motel, which shows in all the extra touches they have put in. My only complaint was that there was a lot of noise of people walking around in the room above mine, resuming at 4:30 am. No more sleep after that!
The motel was only a short walk to Gold Coast Airport, and a stone’s throw from the beach, which looked lovely.

We stayed here for a night before flying out the next morning. 2 minute easy drive to Coolingatta airport... walking distance to the surf club and beach. Would stay here again. Only downside is no pool but i knew this when booking and wasnt planning on needing a pool due to quick visit. But a must if loking for convienient airport accomadation at a good price.

Highly recommend La Costa

Very friendly and accomodating staff. Lovely welcom basket.
Continental breakfast.
Close to Airport.
Had noisy people in room next door. At 9pm we knocked on door that was adjoining the rooms and after a sort time the settled down.
Planes could be heard for a sort time and so when we were ready to sleep we were not bothered by them.
Bikes can̈ be hired to ride along beach path.
Parking in street is available. Signs have been erected so people are not in the street and leaving their vehicle while going on a flight, instead of paying for parking at the Airport.

It was perfect for what I needed. The only downside if I had to pick one was that there wasn’t a smart tv to stream or watch anything else on

La Costa Motel is soo cute, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a lovely basket of goodies waiting for us and the check in was very easy and efficient. La Costa is close to all amenities and the beautiful beach. Would highly recommend the stay here

This was a cute motel. I would stay again.
I liked:
-it was close to the airport, you could walk (8 mins), but was never bothered by planes.
-The people were nice, it felt like a personal experience, not just a motel.
- The beach was close
- they provided breakfast, great after arriving late on a flight
And the free bikes were so great!!! It’s right near a foreshore bike trail, that stretches up and down the coast.

I was a bit surprised by the size of our room. I thought it was more of an apartment studio set up, but it was classic motel and the room was quite small. We had good weather, so it was not a problem.

Lovely decor, friendly helpful online and f2f interactions, nice complimentary snacks. Configuration of queen and single would have been more comfortable. Change of towels on 2nd day would have been nice, but overall convenient, close to the beach, great stay, thanks

We were required to do self check in and check out so did not get to meet the staff. The room was comfortable but as it faced the streets it was very disturbing at night with light shining in. No blinds or block our curtains. 4 hour free parking is on the street. Property parking not available.

This place is so fabulous. John the owner was so helpful and kind. He made great recommendations and he’s just a really nice person. The room was great - we only stayed 1 night but we would stay here again. 150m from the beach and easy parking out front. Restaurants were a 10 min walk along the beach path. The hotel is clean and very charming, and a wonderful change from all the modern development going up in the area.
Thank you John.

Very fun, so cute and comfy cottage by the sea, just like you remember as kids.
All the little things are thought of from the coffee and brekky to bike hire and beach baskets which sets it apart from everywhere else. Staff are wonderful. Thanks for having us. We will be back :)

This is a cute, quaint little beach cottage. We loved it! Small, but comfy, with a nice hot shower too! Phoebe was very nice and easy to communicate with. We would love to stay again if ever in the area.
