Golden Riviera Absolute Beachfront Resort
A quintessential coastal retreat on the Southern Gold Coast, the Golden Riviera Absolute Beachfront Resort commands attention with its prime beachfront location in Tugun, where the sand is finer and the waves roll gently. As you step through the lobby, a serene elegance beckons-the rich textures of the decor, clever mosaic tiling, and inviting sunlight create a warm embrace. The vista from the lobby's large windows showcases lush gardens intertwined with the azure expanse of the Pacific Ocean, setting a tantalizing tone for your stay. Spacious sun-drenched balconies beckon in each apartment, where you can relax and sip morning coffee while the ocean serenades in the background. Each element whispers understated sophistication; the relaxed yet refined atmosphere is a perfect backdrop for your Gold Coast exploration. Guests can indulge at the outdoor heated pool or take a moment in the spa after a vigorous workout in the gym, embracing the leisure that this hideaway promises.
Explore the Local Area
The Golden Riviera Beach Resort boasts an enviable position, where the tranquil Tugun beach and its softly whispered tides are mere steps away, providing an intimate beach experience. Just a short jaunt of 4.5 kilometers south lies Coolangatta, offering a vibrant dining scene and boutique shopping. Broadbeach is a mere 15 kilometers to the north, easily accessible via the public transport that stops right outside the resort. Adventure seekers can explore the breathtaking natural landscapes at nearby Bilinga Beach and Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, or engage with creativity at the annual SWELL Sculpture Festival-each taking you deeper into the captivating dynamics of the Gold Coast. The Tugun Surf Life Saving Club is nearby, serving up stunning ocean views from its newly renovated balcony, enhancing your connection with the local surf culture.
