Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Gold Coast

We had an incredible stay at Waterfall Drive, Wongawallan. The property is an absolute haven — tucked away in the scenic Gold Coast hinterland, yet still close enough to shops and coastal attractions. The home itself is spacious, beautifully maintained, and designed to make the most of the surrounding natural beauty. Waking up each morning to the sounds of nature and expansive views of the rolling hills was a true highlight. The outdoor areas are stunning, perfect for relaxing with a coffee or wine, and the peaceful atmosphere makes it feel like your own private retreat. Inside, the layout is both functional and luxurious — ideal for families or couples looking for space, comfort, and privacy. The kitchen was well-equiped.

An absolutely breathtaking house! We loved the view, how spacious the house was and the heated pool. It was so beautiful sitting on the deck at any time of the day and taking in the view. Sarabah Winery was only 5 minutes away which was great for lunch/afternoon drinks and the Canungra town was bout 10/15 minutes. In such a great spot, would highly recommend this house!

We had such a great stay. The house was spotless, beautifully presented, and felt instantly welcoming. The kitchen was fully equipped and perfect for cooking and entertaining. We loved the walkable location with Coles, cafes, restaurants and the beach all just minutes away. Ideal for a family trip or a weekend with friends, the space was thoughtful, comfortable, and easy to settle into. Highly recommend.

Perfect location with the beach so close. We had our baby and 2yr old so the little yard was perfect to keep them contained and not a long walk back from the beach. Minimalist and simple furnishings. Communication was great too. Would stay again!

Amazing place, so close to the Gold Coast but not feeling like the coast, the outlook is so relaxing, the fire pit and wine, so good!

We had a wonderful stay at this cosy mountain retreat in Tamborine! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that every detail had been thoughtfully curated – from the charming decor to the well-equipped amenities, everything was designed with comfort and care in mind. The peaceful surroundings and warm, inviting atmosphere made it the perfect place to unwind and spend quality time together. Our family created some truly special memories here, and we’re so grateful for the experience!

Great little secluded and comfortable place to stay. Close to cafes and shops, and was surprisingly quiet for being in town.

Beautiful quiet area. Really nice and easy to relax after a long day. Also they were really accommodating and easy to talk to. Would definitely stay again if I’m in the area.

Beautiful place, peaceful and cozy and the food at beach hotel next door is 10/10

Great little unit, great location, easy access to beach, perfect location to catch tram either direction. Several close by coffee spots and "locals". Previous reviews of noise and earplugs provided but didn't need them. My only negative was single beds suitable for small children not taller. Would definitely stay again as previously stated, great little unit. Vadim provided excellent communication throughout the whole experience. 5*****

Amazing view, if you want to wake up to a view of the coastline and be on the beach in just one minute, this will be your best choice！

Taree is a great host, she was always responsive and provided great support with every little detail making our stay a great experience. The place is pristine, greatly located, nice views and excellent cafes/ restaurants a few meters away, for sure one of those destinations that we look forward returning and recommending. Thanks Taree, you made things clear and easy for me and my family!

I booked this apartment for family, and they had an excellent stay. The apartment was clean, well-appointed and matched the listing description and photos. The facilities - pool, gym and BBQ area were all top-notch and easily accessible. Communication with the host was exceptional; they were responsive and helpful throughout the booking and stay, ensuring everything went smoothly. Highly recommend this property for anyone visiting the Gold Coast.

Really good location and close to everything, beach was a couple mins walk and shops straight out the lift. The apartment was clean and the spa bath amazing !! Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful hosts. Can’t wait to book another trip to Salt Wood.

Incredibly Breathtaking day and night views . Comfortable and clean accomodation , and walk across road to beach . Really enjoyed our stay . Would recommend , and certainly will return !

Beautiful unit. Photos don’t do it justice. The view is absolutely spectacular and all the finishes were incredible! The bed was very firm (ok for husband not for me) and very squeaky when rolling over during the night. The balcony and the way it opens up provides a beautiful breeze and the fans are wonderful on those warm nights. Jason was wonderful to deal with and very quick to respond. Wish we didn’t have to leave but will return. We met friends for dinner and drinks and they loved it also and will also come stay here next time!

We really loved the location of Sammi's place, super close to shops, beach front and restaurants/cafes. Plenty to do, but also a great spot to relax and watch the waves roll in. Everything was accounted for and we felt right at home as soon as we stepped through the doors. Definitely recommend this gem and will return!

We had a lovely time, the space worked really well for us. And Thankyou to Aliyah for being so prompt when we had a question. I would thoroughly recommend this place to stay. 👍

We had a really good 4 night stay. Great location, walking distance to everything. Check in was easy, clear pictures on where to find the keys. Good accom if you have little ones as in the cupboard there were a bucket and shovel, scooters and boogie boards provided. The only downside was there was a smell that lingered around the whole time and no hot water the morning we were checking out so could not shower.

Di and Nick’s place was perfect. Beautiful views and spotlessly clean. So easy to get to and from the airport by bus. Easy walk to restaurants and cafes. Easy walk to the beach. Would definitely stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay—the view was stunning, the place was comfortable, and the location was perfect. The hosts were responsive and helpful, especially during check-in. One issue we encountered was that the TV browser had visible pornographic search history, which was inappropriate and made us uncomfortable. It would be great if the TV could be reset between guests. Overall, a great stay—9/10!

Lovely stay convenient to everything. Beautiful weather and was lovely to see so many whales out the front. We do love coming back to this stunning area. ☀️ 🐳

Great location wonderful home great value for money
