“I like that it's adults-only, set in the Gold Coast's arts and entertainment district, and steps from Surfers Paradise Beach. From what I gathered, the rooftop bar seems to be a major draw with its live music and views, and the event spaces are ample. Rooms are modern and spacious, ideal for couples looking for a stylish and convenient getaway.”
