“Sunburst Motel strikes me as a practical choice for families seeking an affordable Gold Coast base, especially with its pet-friendly policy. The inclusion of a saltwater pool and BBQ area suggests a focus on simple leisure, while the proximity to Broadwater and Surfers Paradise balances convenience with value. I think its appeal lies in providing essential comforts without inflated costs.”
