“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.”
