Unfortunately, our stay was disappointing due to cleanliness issues. Many items in the kitchen didn’t appear to be properly cleaned, which made it uncomfortable to use. Basic supplies were also lacking — only two rolls of toilet paper, one bin liner, and no essentials like salt or pepper were provided. On top of that, the 9am checkout felt unnecessarily early compared to the standard 10am most accommodations offer. Overall, the stay didn’t meet expectations and could be improved with better attention to detail and guest convenience.

Absolutely loved our stay at Rainbow Bay Resort. The location is incredible — not far from the beach and could still see the surfer line-up from our side apartment. It has a very relaxed and a peaceful vibe. The apartment was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable, with everything we needed.

The facilities were fantastic, especially the pool and outdoor areas. Everything felt well looked after, and it made for a truly relaxing stay.

Checking in and out was quick and easy, and the owners are super nice and helpful.

Highly recommend — we’ll definitely be back!

Our apartment was next to a construction site and they started work at 6.00 in the morning and the noise from that site was horrendous. Had a headache every time they worked. Could not recommend this place to anyone while site is being built. They haven’t even started the building yet still working on foundations

Kylie and Brendan, the managers, couldn't have been more helpful or nicer. Their responses were always quick and accurate. The resort is close to two shopping centres and has many options for dinner, coffee or walk along the beach or walkway. The room were large and tastefully decorated. Love our stay even though there was a bit of building noise next door. But building everywhere on Gold Coast! Thank you Kylie and Brendan

Location was quite good, although not actually on the beach. We knew that. Ocean views were as advertised. A very light and airy apartment, with heavy block-out curtains for night time. Overhead fans and aircon, neither of which were necessary in early/mid November. On the negative side, there was an almost complete lack of useful information in the apartment - TV instructions on the back of entry door was it! No books, games, DVDs (although some of those may have been available at reception), no toiletries. Comfortable, but….sparse.

A beautiful location let down by the apartment.

The apartment was spacious with a lovely view and outdoor verandah, but the owners badly need to renovate and modernize it. It doesn't appear to have had anything done since it was built. The worst thing was it wasn't clean! I wanted to leave straight away. I was up till midnight cleaning things - fridge, dishes, dishwasher, (full of food scraps), floor. I left enough to show the managers in the morning. They were most apologetic & upset as in the yr they had been there this was the 3rd set of cleaners they were on.. While we were out they came in & cleaned the apartment for us, and bought new cleaning equipment for the apartment, including vacuum cleaner.
Shane and Sue were so helpful and caring. The perfect people to manage such a place, but they were badly let down by the apartment owners who should not rent it out till they renovate & modernise it, and the cleaners who seem to have only changed the sheets.

this is my worst trip in my life

1,When I just went in the hotel the sits are sandy very much and the room get really bad smell
2, The furniture is vey old and fade,
3,The dishwasher powder just provide one and some plate not clean.
4,The toilet paper is not provided.
5, We stay in the hotel 7days, no one go in the room to clean and change the sheet and bedclothes, no one doing any cleaning job for the room.
6, The fire door was locked all the time, we can not use any key provided by the hotel to open it. if any thing happened it will be dissolving.
7, The washing machine is very duty on the top of inside.

Rainbow Bay Resort is in a fantastic spot. Easy walk to beach, surf club, Coolangatta & Tweed Heads. $10 meals at the Surf Club. Huge meals & best position on the beach. So many Cafes, Restaurants or Clubs to choose from. Easy access to public transport to Surfers Paradise The two bedroom apartment at the Resort is large containing everything you need for an enjoyable stay. Balcony is large & makes it easy to relax having two different settings enabling you to enjoy the sun or shade depending on your needs. Pool is sparkling & spa & sauna also there.

Wonderful family resort

We absolutely loved it. Service from when we arrived including dropping luggage off was awesome. Nothing was too much for them and small touches such as family DVD library in the lobby and a pool that opens from 7am is great for a family vacation. Would recommend this for any families

Comfortable and Enjoyable

We stayed here for 2 nights in a 2 bedroom ocean view apartment. The apartment was very roomy and had everything we needed. The staff and owners were all very nice, professional and helpful. The resort facilities were great.

Best place in rainbow beach

North corner two bedroom two bathroom suite with lovely ocean view and a big deck so we always had some shade. Near currumbin sanctuary which we loved. Bldg managers Greg and felicity were super hosts. We are staying seven weeks so I guess we like the place. We have come here for three years. We will come back

Pleasant place to stay

We stayed 6 nights here .
The place is close to the beach but it is up the hill so might not be suitable for older people.
The unit is very clean and staff is very nice.
It is a pleasant stay.

Close to the beach

We stayed on the ground floor the room was comfortable, but the beds were really uncomfortable. The main bedrooms window was right on the doorway to the pool so we needed to shut the window so you couldn't hear anyone or them see in, therefore the room was hot and the air con didn't reach the room. Wasn't very private and when the 9am check out came the door was opened by either cleaners or management which I thought was rude. Luckily we were dressed and ready to walk out.

Fantastic. Reliable, easy, everything in order.

Owners very helpful and friendly, room absolutely clean, and many more facilities in the room than we expected. Great location, all the little extra things thought of - cinema schedule in the lift, trolley for transporting bags, surf board lockers, the little things add up to a very good experience.

Nice hotel, friendly staff

We caught up with friends from NZ for the Coolie Rocks On weekend.
The apartment was really nice, well appointed & clean & and staff were really friendly.
The only down side, the balcony wasn't very private but this wouldn't stop us from staying again.

Perfect for our family

Rainbow Bay Resort is lovely - the staff were lovely. The apartment had a very well equipped kitchen. The pool and spa were really lovely. It felt spacious and comfortable. The under cover parking was excellent.
The only downside was the early-morning noise from a building-site across the road....but I'm sure that is only temporary!

Lovely apartment in a quiet area near the water.

Apartment was very comfortable, the bed was great. One block back from the water with lovely views. There is a great breakfast cafe opposite the beach. The only negarive is the 9am checkout. Far too early for a Sunday morning. I have never stayed somewhere with such an early checkout. Not sure why it has to be so early.

Just ok.

This hotel was just ok. I understand the rooms are individually owned so it's not the fault of the hotel but our room was extremely outdated. Bed linen was very old and scratchy. Furniture was old. Just needs a good update. Huge room which was great. The biggest issues we had was we had to put out our own rubbish and strip the sheets or get a $60 bill. We go away to not have to worry about taking out the rubbish or get a bill for $60. It's nice to not worry about the house cleaning stuff when away. Wouldn't stay again.

Close to beaches and shops.

The only thing I was disappointed in was when I booked my holiday. I booked it for 2 adults, 3 children. I wanted to pay the whole amount instead of a deposit so I could concentrate on saving for the holiday. I was charged $650 for 5 nights. I was quite dissatisfied when I was charged an extra $150 because they made a mistake. Which meant, I couldn't take my girls to Sea World. As much as I would recommend this motel to family & friends. We won't be staying there again because of that reason.
