Signature Luxury Travel suggests grabbing your closest friends and head out for a Gold Coast weekend. For this jam-packed itinerary, they advise having a car at the ready, or make sure your Uber app is set to go!
First stop, Peppers Soul Surfers Paradise, its multi-room apartments the perfect for a group of travelling friends. A ‘secret’ rooftop garden is one of many highlights in the heart of Surfers Paradise.
A short stroll to Lot 1 Coffee, order tasty bites like peanut butter French toast or an acai bowl loaded with fruity goodness.
Afternoon
Make your way to HOTA (Home of the Arts) Gallery for a dose of culture. More than a creative precinct, there’s space for workshops and talks, a theatre, a sculpture walk and a number of restaurants and bars.
Then head to The Exhibitionist on the gallery’s rooftop for a flute of champagne and views over this pretty pocket of the city.
Evening
So much more than your average driving range, prepare for an evening packed with laughter at Topgolf Gold Coast. Come sunset, head to the rooftop bar where you’ll find live music and a great vibe. Open until midnight, the restaurant serves fare to share like buffalo wings and flatbread pizzas.
Get your caffeine fix at ESPL at the base of Peppers Soul. Enjoy more million-dollar views with your morning macchiato. Head to the nearby Isle of Capri for a pastry from Bisou Bakery. The twice-baked sourdough almond croissants are absolutely divine.
Then head out for a morning bike ride from Main Beach to Burleigh. There are a number of nearby bicycle rental outlets and bike share options. Be sure to wear your swimsuit so that when you reach Burleigh you can take a dip in the ocean.
Afternoon
Still in Burleigh, Suzy BBQ is a funky Korean dining room that allows you to grill your own meats and seafood at your table.
Nearby, Kin Pan-Asian’s atmospheric back bar is not the easiest place to find (look for the sign with a fish fighting a chicken) but once inside you’ll see why it’s described as one of the coolest yakitori bars.
Evening
Get set to embark on a journey to the heartland of the country through a thrilling live show at The Australian Outback Spectacular. Included is a three-course dinner and drinks - the icing on the performance cake.
End your fun-filled night (and this weekend) at Cali Beach Club with stellar views and sensational cocktails with great friends… what could be better?
