The hype
Great location and pool for the kids, but the rooms are tired and the walls are paper-thin.
Tiki Hotel Apartments Surfers Paradise
$100-180 / malam
Pesan ini jika You're a family or group of friends who prioritizes a pool slide and location over luxury and silence.
Mengapa Orang Menyukainya
- The pool has a genuine waterslide that keeps kids occupied for hours
- Dead central location—walk to Cavill Avenue and the beach in 5 minutes
- River view rooms offer surprisingly decent sunsets for the price
Ringkasan Cepat: A faded 80s icon that trades on its waterslide and location while desperately needing a renovation.
Ditinjau oleh @Gipsy7: I was pleasantly surprised by how huge this apartment was! The decor is a bit retro, but having a full kitchen and that massive spa bath made my stay so relaxing. The river views from the living room are totally worth it for a quiet getaway.

- Maintenance: Aging property issues: peeling paint, slow drains, and worn carpets are common complaints.

5 hal yang perlu Anda tahu sebelum pergi
💡The 'Spa' in the room name often means a shower over a very high, awkward tub wall.
💡The elevators can be slow and hot during peak summer days.
💡You might find 'schoolies' remnants (glitter, bottle caps) in hard-to-reach corners if housekeeping rushed.
💡The BBQ area is actually quite decent and a good way to save money on dinner.
💡The decor in non-renovated rooms is a time capsule from the early 2000s.
