This inlet along the shoreline is in Queensland, a place that has lots going for it! Kirra Beach, Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, and Coolangatta Beach are other interesting sightseeing opportunities close by when you've had your fill of Rainbow Bay.

8/10 Very Good! (1,003 reviews)

We stayed at Coral Tree Inn twice, first time a first floor room (no lift so be prepared to carry bags), second time a ground floor room (much easier). Rooms were basic but certainly adequate. Beds were comfortable. Hot buffet breakfast was included and was excellent. Good range of foods and plenty of it. Staff were excellent and always very helpful.

Our stay at Alamanda was truly relaxing and peaceful. The beachfront location provided stunning ocean views, and the tranquil atmosphere made it easy to unwind. The spacious, well-appointed suites and lush gardens added to the overall sense of serenity. A perfect place to rejuvenate!

The apartment was dated and we had to clean the spa bath with the shower over it because it was very dirty before we could use it. Also we could not walk around without shoes as the floor was dirty even though it looked clean.
