Hotels in Island of Hope

If your plans include a holiday to Australia’s Gold Coast region, you’re in for a pleasant surprise. Hope Island offers a great place for devoted surfers to enjoy the pristine beaches and crystal clear waters. A Hope Island accommodation is critical to a successful vacation program that requires somewhere a bit “out of the way” but close to a host of diverse activities. No matter where your journey begins, getting to your destination will be quite easy.

When driving from the north or south, the highways are available for a smooth and relatively quick trip. Visitors can land at Gold Coast Airport in Coolangatta. It is located south of your Hope Island accommodation and is only a 30 minute drive from the airport. Landing in Brisbane, you will be 45 minutes north of the island. Rental cars are available at both airport locations.

Hotel rates range from budget to luxurious accommodations, depending on room size and amenities. Last minute booking rates are available at most hotels. Prices range from AUD120 to AUD250 per night. Many hotels have on-site restaurants, and in some cases, a bar is available for your convenience. When you stay at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Sanctuary Cove, you’ll be staying in a royal Queensland mansion and close to the many theme parks and golf course activities. The famous Pines Golf Club is adjacent to the hotel.

There are a variety of quality restaurants on Hope Island, offering local and exotic menus. The Wildfish Waterfront Bar and Bistro offers delicious, reasonably priced meals along with extraordinarily beautiful panoramic views. The House of Siam, Harleys on the Harbor, and Randhawa’s Indian Cuisine are several highly rated restaurants that you can choose from.

There is no shortage of beaches for sunbathing or for getting out on the water and riding the waves or just swimming in the waves. Shopping malls, museums, theme parks, golf courses, and wildlife sanctuaries are found throughout the Gold Coast. There are theaters available for your entertainment and pubs and clubs of various kinds. There are parks and landmarks as well as heritage buildings lining the Gold Coast and guided tours are also available if you wish.

For those of you who are a little more adventurous, you can book a day trip to the inland or north of Brisbane and North Stradbroke Island, where you can see dolphins and humpback whales. You may want to get off the beaten path in the middle of it all and visit the koalas and kangaroos.

A Hope Island vacation is sure to be a memorable experience.
