You’re right on the beach and there’s a bus that runs every 5 mins taking you to other parts of the Gold Coast. Cute rooms. Would definitely stay again.

Our room at Tessa's on the Beach was clean and tidy but we were disappointed with the food offering (only slices of Pizza available), so we had to drive to one of the nearby shopping malls for some food. The location was a little bit out of the way; maybe I should've paid a bit more attention to this.

Clean room, comfy bed, provided dental kits (a godsend as we both forgot to bring toothpaste!) cute furnishings and wallpaper, ample storage and hooks to dry our towels and hang clothes. The garden was very cute and it was great to be so close to the beach! We also borrowed bikes and went for a lovely bike ride to Currumbin :) Also, I appreciated the staff member on the bar who opened the cider bottle I had bought not realising it wasn't a twist top. A little pricey but absolutely great value for it, we had a great stay <3

Loved this charming boutique motel! Our oceanfront room was perfect — comfortable bed, great value, and a prime central location. It was the ideal little getaway. We really appreciated the bonus perks: onsite parking, bike hire, and super friendly staff. The daily happy hour from 4–6 was a great touch! Tucked away in a quiet spot, yet close to everything. Highly recommend!

Excellent location right on the walking path and meters from the sand. My only gripe was some cheap lamps and furnishings the body soaps were from China, and the extensive minibar was not included (just like typical hotels). Other than that it was a very nice stay on the beach
