Not only is this family-friendly Gold Coast Holiday Park the perfect accommodation choice to visit the nearby theme parks, it also features its own waterpark, cafe, and modern, comfortable cabins!
We recently enjoyed a wonderful theme park holiday on Queensland’s gorgeous Gold Coast. Like any vacation, making the right accommodation choice was so important.
I didn’t want to be spending all our time commuting up and down the highway from Surfers to the Movie World, Dreamworld and other Gold Coast theme parks – but I did want us to be in easy reach of Surfers Paradise for the occasional fun evening out. In addition, also have the option of being able to eat in when we were tired from a long day of fun at the parks! We found staying at the Big4 Gold Coast Holiday Park to be the perfect holiday location.

Our 2 Bedroom Lakeview Terrace cabin
- At Big4 Gold Coast Holiday Park we stayed in a Lakeview Terrace cabin.
- Our 2-bedroom Lakeview Terrace cabin was very spacious and modern, and gave us all lots of room to move, eat – and relax!
- Accessed with a secure digital room card, the entry opened into a large living area featuring a comfortable lounge, dining area and kitchen.
Air-conditioned accommodation
- On the wall a powerful reverse cycle air conditioner kept us cool, and there was plenty of natural light from the glass sliding doors and windows.
The elevated balcony had a beautiful outlook. It’s peaceful view over the waterway featured a fountain and surrounding grasslands, complete with all kinds of lovely water birds and parrots.
Two bedrooms sleep four people
- I quickly settled into the main bedroom. With its comfortable double bed, the main bedroom also featured a second reverse cycle air conditioner, another flat screen TV, and had plenty of storage with bed side tables and a built-in wardrobe.
The girls happily claimed the second bedroom, which contained two single beds with a bedside table and its own built in wardrobe.
A generous bathroom and two toilets
- The bathroom was located across the hall from the bedrooms and was modern and a generous size. It contained everything a family could need on vacation, including a large vanity, toilet, king size shower plus toiletries including shampoo and conditioner. A convenient second toilet was also located off the hall.
A holiday cabin with a full kitchen
- Our cabin featured a full kitchen along one side of the living area. Kitchen appliances included a full-sized fridge, dishwasher, stove top and microwave. There was everything you would need for a home-cooked meal to serve on the large dining table. There were also supplied tea and coffee amenities.
Where can you get dinner near the Gold Coast theme parks?
- If I didn’t feel like cooking, it was great to be able to grab a takeaway on the way back to the holiday park so we could all collapse on the lounge in front of the TV – or even better, pop into the holiday park’s own Nibbles Cafe!
A Holiday Park with its own restaurant
One of the huge advantages of staying at the Big4 Gold Coast Holiday Park was eating at their on-site cafe. The poolside Nibbles Cafe has a wonderful variety of delicious dinner choices to dine in or take back to your cabin, including yummy parmies, pasta and pizza.
Breakfast and coffee at Nibbles Cafe
- In the mornings, Nibbles Cafe served up barista coffee and delicious breakfasts for all the family. From vegemite toast and pancakes to Eggs Benedict and a full hot breakfast – they had everyone in our family covered!

In addition to all kinds of great accommodation, the Big4 Gold Coast Holiday Park also offers an incredible range of fun activities to keep the whole family happy!
The tallest holiday park water park in Australia!
The Big4 Gold Coast Holiday Park water park is simply amazing – it’s a whole attraction in itself, with several water slides and a dunking bucket. It’s the perfect place for the kids to cool off!
A resort-style swimming pool and spa
One of the park’s main features is a stunning resort style swimming pool surrounded with cabanas. It’s beautifully lit for night swimming too.
A giant jumping pillow & kids playground
In addition to the pool, in the extensive grounds you’ll also find a giant jumping pillow, a basketball court, a large children’s playground with a flying fox, go karts for hire and there’s even a video games arcade!
A safe, good quality holiday park
The park itself is very well run and cared for. There’s a large reception building upon entry, and good park security thanks to code operated boom gates and Staff present around the park.
The speed-limited interior roads are sealed, lined with mowed lawn and beautifully kept decorative gardens.

Camping facilities
If you are bringing your RV or caravan, there are plenty of concrete sites, some with ensuites. There’s a pay laundry with washing machines and dryers and some great camping facilities too – such as a large and elegant camp kitchen and also toilet and shower amenities decorated with beautiful aquariums!
