Gold Coast Attractions

Anacapri Apartments is only steps from the golden sandy beaches of Surfers Paradise, which this year won the title of Queensland's cleanest beach. Whether you are a swimmer, surfer, sunbather, walker or simply a lover of natural beauty, you will be seduced by the Gold Coast's fabulous beachfront ambience. Cavill Avenue Mall is also just a short 8-10 minute walk on the beach away.

Less well known, but equally as beautiful, the Gold Coast hinterland and National Parks offer a range of touring and walking options. Explore the secrets of nature - take a bushwalk, join a guided ecotour or picnic in the rainforest. But nature is only part of the hinterland's charm, with galleries, wineries, markets and cafes making for a relaxing extension of your Gold Coast holiday.

Theme Parks

The region is home to a great range of theme parks including Dreamworld, White Water World, Sea World, Warner Bros. Movie World and Wet'n'Wild. What better place to discover the natural wonders of Australia than at the Currumbin Bird & Wildlife Sanctuary, or take a day trip to Steve Irwin's Australia Zoo. You can pre-purchase direct from Anacapri Reception or select Tours and Attractions icons to book on line.  This is a free booking service.

The Gold Coast is also a golfing mecca, with around 40 golf courses to choose from, including courses designed by golfing greats Greg Norman, Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer. Ask Anacapri Reception to make your booking.
