With a water park, four seperate swimming areas, water slide, putt putt, kids club and arcade game rooms, you really can’t go past Turtle Beach Resort when choosing a place for the family to stay on the Gold Coast. Put on your swimmers and pull up a lounge chair with a book in hand for an afternoon of relaxation, as the kids go nuts in the swimming pool playground. Perhaps you and your partner want a romantic dinner at The Deck Restaurant and Bar located at the resort? Send the kids to the Turtle Beach Kids Club for an evening of fun-filled activities, while you and your significant other share a restaurant meal over a bottle of fine wine. Located a stone’s throw from the beach, you can even treat the kids to an afternoon of sand, sun and waves they won’t forget.
