Very convenient to the beach and the main shopping. Clean and comfortable. Nice extra touches with the artwork. Had everything we needed. They even supplied washing powder for the washing machine. Pool and spa were lovely and clean. Stay there you will be happy you do. More

Bus from the airport stops two blocks from Palm Avenue and bus going to the airport goes from straight across the road (702)! Apartments was large and clean, Air conditioning was in the main area...

Bay Lodge are 1 and 2 bedroom apartments in a low rise complex located a short stroll away from Cavill Ave and all the noise and crowds of Surfers Paradise. They are very cheap and offer excellent value for money, with fully equipped kitchens and laundry. But its nothing flash and unfortunately we were stuck inside for our stay because... More

My first family trip to the Gold Coast and read the reviews prior to booking at Bay Lodge. The apartment was very untidy. I really don't care about the state of the furniture but there was so much dust in the room I couldn't stop sneezing:(. I did say something to the front office but they said they'll past the... More

While we appreciate all responses from Guests that have stayed here, we believe that this is not a genuine review. We are a small family husband & wife team (no staff) and would remember any complaints of this nature, and would act on them. We were never fully booked at any time last October. If the Bay Lodge was so... More

We actually had a really great time at the Bay Lodge. The Apartments offered more than we were expecting with Foxtel, a DVD Player and even Internet access. Plus with the full kitchen is was great to be able to cook our own meals and not have to eat out everynight. However those nights where we did eat out it... More

We stayed at the Bay Lodge units recently and enjoyed our stay. We usually stay at more expensive accomodation right on the beach, but as these were booked out for our dates, we took a chance here not knowing what to expect as the cost was about half of our usual place. The unit was very clean and spacious and... More

stayed for one week, good location although noisy at night due to the backpackers bar at the rear. Pool great but spa hot only sometimes. BBQ area great and always clean. Rooms good average, cheap for a family, but our room was a bit grubby. I did see another room similar which was very clean. Appliances a bit tired, but... More
