We arrived after a long day of travelling and having not eaten since breakfast went straight to the rooftop bar where we were told we could order from the snack menu. We ordered and paid for drinks and food and the kids started drinking their softdrinks while I waited for my cocktail and food. The bar staff made my cocktail and when I collected it they advised that the kitchen was closed and refunded my food only. We definitely would not have ordered drinks if we knew food was not available. We paid for breakfast in our room rate and upon ordering breakfast I was told that the children were only allowed to order the one item on the menu for "12 and under " despite one of my children being 14. There was no age specification for children when I booked the accommodation. The breakfast was nice, although the scrambled eggs were very oily. The suite was clean and the renovation tasteful, although everything was starting to look worn. Value for money was pretty good at $340 for one adult, and 3 kids with breakfast included. But they should probably specify what age constitutes a child if they're going to insist a 14 year old can't order from the main menu. And the staff should be more informed about kitchen times. The overall experience was soured because of these few issues.

This place is fantastic. Affordable and comfortable. The staff were absolutely wonderful, including reception and the bar staff. There's many small finishings that just make the experience easy and relaxing. The rooms have QR code menu access and the food is really exceptional. The rooms and bathrooms are spacious and finished with high quality soaps/shampoos etc. the location is perfect for beach, shops. There's a great pool area with complimentary towels and a great bar that also does coffee and food. The rooftop bar is also a great venue. Overall this was a wonderful stay and I'm definitely coming back.

LOVED our experience with the Island. The staff were super friendly and more than accommodating when it came to booking multiple rooms under one person. I would love to shout out Dene, Nate & Poulina for personally looking after our crazy booking - I’m sure they were over my calls back to back. The few downfalls were that there was only 1 elevator working at the time which took a very long time whilst waiting and that sometimes you will miss the turn into the hotel due to the tram lines. Other than that, we are so happy with our stay all thanks to the staff!

The place and renovations were nice with modern rooms, great location and facilities. It is however above a bar and rooftop bar and it's LOUD! Music was playing until after 1am extremely loudly so sleep was definitely not an option. If you are hoping for an early night, don't bother staying here. I emailed management with feedback and received no reply and reception were uninterested in my complaint.

Our wedding at The Island Gold Coast Penthouse was absolutely magical. The penthouse is stunning with its panoramic views, rooftop open air bar, art deco inspired styling, even the bathrooms are gorgeous. From start to finish, our wedding coordinator, Jenna, was an absolute gem. She handled every detail with grace and professionalism, ensuring our day was flawless and stress-free. Jenna's expertise and unwavering commitment made all the difference, and we couldn't have asked for a better guide through the planning process. The food and beverages served at our reception was far beyond expectations (we had canapes, a shared menu dinner and a carvery at the end of the night), leaving our guests raving about the delicious food. The staff's courtesy and attentiveness added to the overall wonderful experience. In summary, our wedding at The Island Gold Coast Penthouse was a dream come true. Jenna's dedication and the exceptional service provided by the entire team made our day perfect. If you're seeking a breathtaking venue with top-notch service, The Island Gold Coast is the ideal choice. We highly recommend it to any couple looking to create cherished memories on their special day. Thank you for making our wedding day unforgettable!
