Hope Island5 nights8.0/10 - Very Good (579 reviews)"Great location, good spacious rooms. The only issue we had was that the room we were given had loud noise every time the toilet or taps were turn on from above level. The noise was constant throughout the night. However as soon as we raised the issue Jess in the reception came and inspected the noise and provided us with immediate solution of moving to another room on another level. Customer service provided was exceptional."Reviewed June 1, 2026Roundtrip • Auckland (AKL) - Gold Coast (OOL)AKL - OOL • Nonstop OOL - AKL • Nonstop - Soul Beachfront Apartments - HR Surfers Paradise
