We had such a wonderful stay at Waterfront on Main Beach! The view was absolutely stunning—waking up to the ocean and listening to the waves, especially at night, was so peaceful and calming. It truly felt like a little slice of paradise.
The location was perfect—close to everything, yet still quiet enough to feel like a true getaway. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.
We left feeling refreshed and already can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a beachside escape!

Nice view from the apartment. The only small issue was there was no space to put soap, shampoo etc in the shower.
One of the best locations on the Gold Coast. The managers were excellent to deal with and made our stay most enjoyable. The views from our apartment were magnificent and the property had fantastic amenities. We would highly recommend The Waterford to anyone wanting a self contained apartment centrally located on the Gold Coast. We will be back.

Great location, not noisy, very quiet building. Loved our weekend here
The Waterford location is amazing, there are not too many apartments where you can see whales from your balcony!
There are plenty of great dining options nearby on Tedder Avenue, plus the tram is also very close, so we didn't need to hire a car.
The room was spacious, and pool was amazing.
