The Equinox is a very old high rise so if you’re looking for flashy bathrooms and kitchens, this place is not for you. BUT, if you’re looking for a comfortable bed to sleep in, a functional bathroom with a hot shower with full pressure, a basic kitchen with a full sized fridge, a big lounge room with smart tv and sofa bed, then this is the perfect place for you to stay in.
Check in was easy and very friendly and informative.
The Equinox has million dollar views of both the ocean and canals. We saw pods of dolphins and whales playing from the balcony. It is directly across from Main Beach so has easy access to the beach, it’s an 8 minute, easy stroll from the heart of Surfers Paradise, so perfect if you’re looking to go out on the town and not have to worry about driving home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Equinox and would definitely recommend staying there.

A comfortable room, with a wonderful view, but the whole place was very tired.

Property was largely occupied by elderly people who lived there. Not that this was an issue, but it did come as a bit of a surprise. I would not class it as a resort. Our apartment was only serviced (towels changed, beds made) once in our 10 day stay and apartment was a bit out dated. On a positive note the apartment was in a quiet area and located right in front of the beach with great view from the balcony. Front reception staff were friendly and helpful.

Reception checked us in early & were obliging above & beyond. The ocean & mountain views from our studio apartment were magnificent. A superb view from every window. For the price, our stay was sensational.

Different owners for different rooms with different set-up. The answer I got from reception for balcony chair for 2 rather than 1. Had to ask for missing sink/ bath stoppers, or even a cutting board. I had to bring my own pair of food scissors for kitchen use. We had to improvise where we can move the big microwave so we can use the kitchen bench for food prep. we're hoping we get a better room when we get back, as we've re-booked Equinox again in near future for long term.

Fantastic location, directly across the road from the lovely beach. Proximity to cafes, pubs, restaurants and shopping was great - we walked everywhere! The hotel has seen better days but the location and the ocean & canal views from our room definitely made up for it tenfold! Added to that, undercover secure parking was free. Service was great upon check in and again upon check out. We will definitely stay here again.

It was across the road from the beach so that was good. It's an old building, rooms need some repairs. But it was cheaper than the rest so you get what you pay for i guess.

Nice pool and rec area, slightly outdated but its got the main things right. Room was nice enough. However, the bathroom was a hassle to figure out how to use the attached shower head and the rails where not secured at all. But you make do.

My partner and I really enjoyed our stay at equinox sun resort! The staff were lovely and it felt extremely homely. Our views were magnificent from the top floor.
The only thing is that our apartment was quite worn out and due for some fixing and a little TLC as well as some new pots and pans - otherwise fantastic!

surprised me. It was special in every detail. The furniture and kitchen utensils are new and the decoration is very beautiful and cozy. The views from the windows are amazing and the energy of the place is wonderful. The people who work at the hotel and the owners were excellent and hospitable. I felt like family.
Little details struck me, like a kitchen cleaning kit containing a new dish towel, a sponge, dish soap and washing machine sachets. Coffee and tea packets were also available. All necessary kitchen items are available. cutlery, glasses, pans, plates, among others. There is a very comfortable sofa that you can admire the sea while relaxing. The tv is big and new with a very good sound. The carpets were clean and new, the bed is very good too.
There is a washer / dryer in the room. In addition to good quality shampoo and conditioner.
All very clean and new.
I was impressed with the set.

It is tired and run down. Guess the price reflects that? First night late checkin process was smooth. Instructions in envelope but no WiFi code for kids. Only 1 roll of toilet paper. Went to reception before we went out for the next day. They promised more... arrived back from our day out, no paper, reception closed. Great location. Good parking. Just a very tired apartment. Gym pool sauna fine.

Great location...The property is opposite the beach

The “resort” in the hotel’s title is misleading. While the staff are lovely people, there are only three to manage all 14 floors, with outsourced cleaners that tend the room once a week. The pool, spa and sauna/steam rooms are lovely but in desperate need of maintenance and proper cleaning. The lifts are rather slow and in need of maintenance. And, to top it off, the foyer has a pungent scent to it (obviously a candle or diffuser) that reminds one of the geriatric ward of a hospital — rather unpleasant. The exterior of the hotel is not as it appears in the photos. The hotel’s main facades have obvious rust and peeled paint that need ‘touching up’.However, the room itself was lovely and most enjoyable with a grand view spanning the Surfers Paradise Beach to the Estuary and Macintosh Park.The hotel has a nice location, positioned 1.2km walk from the Surfers Paradise sign and Cavill Avenue, or 600m from Macintosh’s Park. It’s a beautiful stroll.

The room I had had a good view, the room had what I needed with small kitchen area stove , fridge and microwave
