Just 50 metres from one of Australia’s most popular lifeguard-patrolled surf beaches, the iconic Surf Club, and a vibrant café and restaurant scene in the heart of town, Coolum Beach Resort is the perfect place to unwind. Our resort combines relaxed charm with modern convenience, offering spacious 1- & 2-bedroom air-conditioned apartments - each with its own private balcony made for soaking up the sunshine.




From the minute we arrived we knew we had picked the right place to stay. The staff member who checked us in was an absolute delight. The apartment was massive and fresh and clean. The pool is gorgeous. The view from the balcony is great. The beds are comfy. It was quiet and peaceful. We absolutely loved our stay!

Greeted by a very friendly host who had everything ready to go, answered all my queries and had our beach towels organised as requested at the time of booking. Apartment was super roomy and clean and came with a nice balcony enjoying ocean views. Everything on hand needed to enjoy our stay and bonus Greek Restaurant on-site which was nice and beach a 1 minute walk along with shopping strip. Highly recommend

Beautiful spacious clean apartment, amazing beach views from the balcony. Absolutely recommend going downstairs for dinner the food is next level.

There's something special about exploring a destination on foot. The salty ocean breeze, the sound of waves rolling onto the shore, the occasional dolphin sighting offshore and those moments when you discover a viewpoint you'd never see from a car.
