Equinox Resort: Beachfront apartments with ocean views and sports facilities
Amenities & Facilities
Equinox Resort sits opposite Narrowneck Beach and offers a heated outdoor saltwater pool, a hot tub, and both tennis and squash courts. Guests have access to a games room with billiards and air-hockey, a modern fitness centre, and BBQ facilities on a rooftop sun deck that provides panoramic ocean views. The resort also has on-site laundry facilities and a tour desk where guests can book tickets to local theme parks.
Accommodation
Each apartment at Equinox Resort features a private balcony with ocean views and a fully equipped kitchenette for self-catering. Rooms are designed as studios, with some corner units providing views of both the ocean and the canal. Guests also benefit from free secure underground parking and 24-hour security.
Location & Surroundings
The resort is a 15-minute walk from Cavill Avenue in Surfers Paradise and within walking distance of patrolled Surfers Paradise Beach. The G Tram stop is nearby, giving easy access to the entire Gold Coast, and Dreamworld and Wet'n'Wild theme parks are a short drive away. Coolangatta Airport is 30 minutes from the property by car.
Family-Friendly Activities
The games room offers billiards and air-hockey for children and teens, and the tour desk can arrange tickets to Dreamworld, Wet'n'Wild, and SeaWorld. The outdoor heated pool has a shallow end and is fenced for safety. Families also have access to a picnic area and BBQ facilities for casual meals.
Wellness & Recreation
Equinox Resort has a fitness centre, a sauna, and a steam room for guest relaxation. The heated saltwater pool is open all year, and the rooftop sun deck provides sun loungers and umbrellas. Additional recreational options include a squash court and a tennis court.

“Equinox Resort has location and views going for it, perched near the beach with balconies showcasing the ocean. Despite some apparent upkeep issues, the proximity to Surfers Paradise and readily available G Tram access add undeniable value. I think its recreational facilities, including tennis and a pool, are its best assets.”
