Learn How We Inspect

In the resort town of Surfers Paradise, amid world-renowned beaches and trendy restaurants, JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort & Spa stands as one of the best resorts for families. Making its brand debut in Australia, the newly revamped property has everything under the one roof: resort pools designed with young travelers in mind, a six-room spa for adults and serene spaces for everyone in the multi-generational crew to enjoy.

Centrally located with access to long stretches of sandy white beaches, majestic hinterlands and the iconic Gold Coast Esplanade, the property gives guests every excuse to stay nearby. There are multiple dining outlets, including a teppanyaki-style restaurant and an indulgent seafood buffet. The aforementioned freshwater pool and a tropical saltwater lagoon with more than 300 species of fish will turn heads as well. Unwinding or having fun at the JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort and Spa is blissfully easy.

Our Inspector's Highlights

Despite having direct access to the beach, the property has a tropical saltwater lagoon filled with hundreds of species of fish and multiple pools for everyone. Daily fish feeding activities are available for kids to enjoy, too.
Guests are spoiled for choice when it comes to dining. Citrique is the heralded restaurant featuring both fresh seafood and paddock-to-plate dining concepts. Misono is the Japanese-flavored option. Chapter & Verse is the bar for both afternoon tea and curated cocktails at night.
Find your serenity at Spa by JW, where you can indulge in everything from hot stone massages and aroma polishes to detoxing body wraps, which are all tailored to your personal preferences.
Many of the 238 rooms and suites have sweeping ocean or mountain views with floor-to-ceiling windows, oversized bathtubs, marble bathrooms and ample space for everyone in your party.
The Gold Coast hotel’s sustainability program includes farm-to-table activities for kids and dining menus reflective of the same ethos. You can even toast to handcrafted beverages that use freshly grown herbs from the onsite JW Garden.

Things to Know

The family-focused resort offers a huge list of activities to keep everyone entertained. Sushi-making classes, family yoga sessions and herb-planting sessions in the garden are just a few of the activities filling the calendar.
Masterclasses with the property’s award-winning bartenders are provided for guests who want to learn more about the whiskey and tequila they’re consuming. The resort has also been known to host events such as Sip & Savour with Hennessy, where a selection of bold, tropical-flavored drinks is concocted to a soundtrack of soulful live tunes being played at Chapter & Verse.
Wellness is another focus at JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort and Spa. At the lagoon pool, for example, Aqua Sculpt water classes are available exclusively to guests to enhance balance, flexibility and body strength for all fitness levels.
