Carmel by the Sea

Carmel by the Sea is a self-contained apartment stay in Broadbeach, positioned close to the Gold Coast beach and within walking distance of the suburb’s city centre. The location also puts guests near Oasis Shopping Centre, Pacific Fair Shopping Centre, The Star Casino and a broad selection of restaurants, making it practical for visitors who want easy access to dining, shopping and entertainment without relying on a car for every outing.

Accommodation ranges from one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments to three-bedroom suites and sub-penthouses. Each is designed with more room than a standard hotel room and includes a private balcony, an in-room spa, Wi-Fi and Foxtel. The apartments are self-contained, which gives couples, families and groups a more flexible base for a longer Gold Coast stay. The larger layouts are particularly suited to guests travelling together who want separate bedrooms and shared living space.

Views vary according to the apartment’s position in the building. Lower-level apartments look towards the park, while higher-level accommodation takes in views of the Gold Coast ocean. The property is close enough to Broadbeach’s main attractions for an outing on foot, but the site describes the apartments as set back from the busiest activity, offering a quieter place to return to after a day at the beach, in the shops or around town.

Facilities are geared towards both relaxation and keeping active. Guests have access to an outdoor swimming pool, a toddler wading pool, an indoor heated pool, spa, sauna and steam room, along with a gym, full-size tennis court and barbecue area. That mix gives families a dedicated shallow pool, while adults and groups can make use of the leisure and fitness facilities during their stay. With its range of apartment sizes, balconies, self-contained setup and Broadbeach position, Carmel by the Sea suits beach holidays, family breaks, group trips and couples wanting more space than a conventional room.
