“Location, location, location!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 February 2012

Gemini Court is ideally located as it is far enough away from the noise and bright lights of Surfer's Paradise, but is still directly located on the beach and next to the nearby national park. Many restaurants and a premier surfing beach are within easy reach. (I would caution, however, that there is not much shopping within walking distance and the nearby "grocery store" is overpriced.)

When we arrived, we received an upgrade to a 2 bedroom which was enormous and well appointed. The 2-bedroom units are more expensive, but would likely be worth the price difference. One does get the feeling that this is indeed an apartment, not a hotel room, so there is likely some difference in quality of decor between units (I understand that some of them are were recently renovated). We were in unit 97 of the north tower which had a SPECTACULAR view from EVERY room and after our week-long stay it was indeed very difficult to leave this unbelievable view behind. Our unit was also appointed with a (new) dishwasher and (older) washer/dryer, both of which came in very handy. All other kitchen amenties are provided as well (dishes, silverware, etc). I will say that the decor of the unit was quite out of date and this was reflected in the shabbiness of the carpet and living room furniture. Because we spent so little time in the room, this was not much of a concern, but merely a reminder that we were not in a hotel. Regardless, this would not deter me from staying in this particular unit again. The patios/balconies are very spacious and plenty of outdoor chairs were provided so this is where we ate most of our meals.

The service provided by staff, and Anna in particular, was stellar. They provided us with invaluable assistance in working out some of our logistical issues while traveling and I have no doubt that we will stay with them again in the future!

Room Tip: The North tower appears to be closer to the beach, but all floors in both buildings provide an excel...

Dear NAW,

Thanks for your lovely review. Gemini Court Holiday Apartments are a jewel along the Burleigh Headlands and the apartments are great for people to see another side of the Gold Coast - away from hotels and busy tourist areas. We love that our owners open up their second homes for people to visit. It really makes a difference when traveling that you can have a full kitchen, laundry and living area in which to relax. As you said, the views are breathtaking and we are so pleased that you enjoyed them so much! See you on your next trip down under!

Kindest regards
Anna

“Perfect position, lovely room and friendly staff.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

Just returned back from an amazing week's holiday at Gemini Court. We were upgraded to a lovely renovated 2 bedroom apartment with the most stunning views of the ocean from lounge room, kitchen and bedrooms. Close to shops, beach, national park and when you get tired of being out an about you've got full foxtel with movies and aircon to relax to! Never bored once! By far the best gold coast holiday my husband and I have been on and would definately go back for another holiday there. Staff were very relaxed and friendly which made it even more enjoyable. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel and I look forward to returning.

“very good stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

We stayed in Gemini Court in January.
The place has a good family atmosphere and staff were friendly and unobtrusive.
The apartments are in good condition and a well stocked for self catering.
The location is excellent with only a short walk to Burleigh beach. It is also conveniently located to get onto the freeway to visit the theme parks.

Very happy with the location and would stay again.

“Beautiful Burleigh, Perfect the next......Thanks to Gemini!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

person found this review helpful

I have stayed at Gemini many times over the last 15 years with the family and always had a wonderful time. We have also stayed in many other Burleigh apartments but keep coming back to Gemini. My friend and I enjoyed a fabulous week this year too. We stayed in the South Tower for a change and found it just as good even though many prefer the North Tower. The view is magnificent, the apartment clean, spacious and well appointed.

The staff have always been professional, friendly, courteous and knowledgeable and made our stay perfect as always.

We love the beach, the shops, the cafes and restaurants and need the hill for a little extra exercise; as if beach walking, national park walking, swimming and body boarding is not enough.

We cant wait to return. Thanks Kris, Anna and Anastasia.

“Disappointing...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

We recently stayed for 7 nights and while it was peak season, I had still hoped to get a reasonable unit for our $2000+ for 7 nights. To say I was disappointed with the standard of the unit and the ocean view would be a massive understatement. We were on a low floor in the North Tower and the while the unit was large, it looked like it had not been renovated within the past 20 years. The ocean view could only be seen from the balcony and was partially blocked by trees.

Room Tip: Avoid unit 75

Hi Tassieheart,

Thanks for your review. You did travel in peak season - which is why prices are a little more expensive. The price of a standard apartment are only $149 per night during low season. Every apartment does have an ocean view - I live on the ground floor and can see 40km up the beach. They are great views of the ocean and the beach - I am surprised to hear you say you couldn't see the ocean from the 3rd floor.
The standard apartments have had moderate renovations to them, are spacious and very clean. If you do require a fully renovated apartment you should book a superior apartment next time.
We do hope to see you another time.

Regards
Anna
