Top Merrimac Hotel Reviews

The Langham, Gold Coast and Jewel Residences

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful stay in the junior ocean view suite! Amazing view and room, helpful staff and quick check in/out. Won’t hesitate to stay here again!"

Paradise Resort Gold Coast

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for the first time with our little one and we absolutely loved it! So much to do, very family friendly. Our boy loved the water park and the games room! We will definitely be back once our boy is older so he can enjoy the kids zone! We enjoyed the daily kids activities and I got my hair braided which was awesome. Great location as well, definitely had a memorable stay! Thank you so much for this amazing time!"

Sea World Resort

8/10 Good

"A fantastic family holiday destination, surrounded by other families and children of all ages. Having a package as part of your deal is better value than not. Breakfast and dinner buffets are expensive if not included. The pools were great and the splash areas were fun. Daily visits by Nickelodeon characters were a hit with our children and the short stroll to Seaworld was brilliant. Our room had great access being on the ground level, close to pools and amenities, however, the bathroom was a little dated and rundown. Everything worked and fresh towels each day was fabulous, the bathroom just needs some renovations!!"
