East Coast Australia Romantic Holidays

The apartment was large and well set out with a kitchen full of essentials. The property does not have an ocean frontage or view, but we knew that. Most rooms look out over one or the other pool.

Had a wonderful 10 night stay at Shantara. We loved being so close to Macrossan st and the beach, while the pool was an amazing end to each day. The Hotel was peaceful, beautiful and quiet. As is normal for Far North Queensland, there is not everyday cleaning service but we don’t use that anywhere anyway. Plenty of parking, but if you didn’t bring a car everything is walking distance with shuttle bus options for longer journeys. The only black mark of the stay were our neighbours on the pool deck room who were obviously upset at having a queer couple nearby, so disappointing in 2026 but not the Hotels fault at all.

Beach view what you see is what you get

Perfect if you’re wanting to shop on Pitt street or see a show at the state Theater. Rooms were spacious. Two cons, I wish the mini bar was full with things to buy, and the lifts take so long.

Clean rooms, the hotel is immaculate and smells amazing!! Staff are wonderful. Great location

The Star was convenient to the conference centre which was our reason for booking but otherwise you would only go there if you were going to the casino. The room was small and a bit run down. There were some holes in the ceiling that we had to ask to get covered. There would be better places to stay if you are holding in Broadbeach.

Great location. Pool nice. Be a bit careful in their self serve parking lot - very tight! But all in all love this hotel. Buffet breakfast is awesome.

Always an excellent stay! Just book it!
