JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort & Spa
Surfers Paradise, Australia

JW Marriott makes its pools a compelling reason to stay in. A saltwater lagoon and freshwater swimming areas sit within a substantial resort setting, while rooms offer ocean or hinterland aspects. The hotel also has a dedicated spa and several dining options, giving couples and families ways to shape very different days. Its northern Surfers Paradise position suits travellers who want access to the coast's activity while returning to a resort with its own holiday rhythm.
