"The Star, a luxury 596-room hotel that has been part of the Gold Coast scene for decades, has had a 75 million Australian Dollar facelift as part of a major redevelopment of Queensland's first casino complex, adding extra sparkle to an already glamorous property."

"Despite the new outdoor seating, the best spot at this modern Australian eatery is at the counter, where you can sit, eat and watch the chefs as they instinctively reach across to salt each others' dishes, turn thick medallions of beef on the smoky grill and patiently shape arancini into perfect golden spheres. The food here is meant for progressive sharing, from the fat discs of seared scallops doused in seaweed butter to the signature lamb shoulder roasted in sheep's milk yoghurt. The specials are always worth a look and the chefs are happy to go off-piste for those with dietary requirements."

"The glamorous and up-market eatery Social Eating House + Bar could always attribute part of its charm to the gorgeous venue and buzzing atmosphere, but there’s no doubt that the real show stopper is the food itself. This wonderful restaurant is now offering delivery on its delicious food, so you can enjoy it all at home!. The perfect place to order from if you are celebrating the end of the week after working from home or if you feel like dining with a touch of class, Social Eating House + Bar has you covered."

"Held every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 5pm until late, the Miami Market offers a laneway dining experience with 25 food vendors of all nationalities. From decadent cannoli and the thickest, plumpest lamingtons I have ever seen with my own two eyes to tender brisket, Mexican and Japanese fare, tasty yiros and so much more!. There’s also a great rotation of events including Drag Queen Bingo, live music and the ever-popular rummage sale."

"Shared tables, funky bars and talented local artists make Miami Marketta the place to be on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights. This live music venue, creative hub and outdoor dining venue has plenty of tasty street food and seating for 450 people. Disclosure: The writer loves the Gold Coast’s markets and spends way too much money each time she visits one."

"This open-air street food market is only eight-minutes from Broadbeach, offering the most mouthwatering eats around. Take your family down on any Wednesday, Friday or Saturday of the month to experience this cultural dining hub with a difference. While you devour food from around the world, try locally brewed beer for parents and listen to the local talent."

"It seems sea foam-misted waterfront dining does not come without risk, but we’re stoked the charming lads of Rick Shores took the challenge head on and re-surfaced with grace after the #bigwet. With a carefully-curated Asian fusion menu of next-level taste-bud busters from Vietnam, Thailand, and further afield, this Burleigh Beach favourite not only offers lust-worthy views across the table but some of the most delish dishes we’ve tucked our knife and fork into. Firstly, quality over quantity is the name of the game here, but you will not leave disappointed after the likes of soft shell crab on betel leaf, Rick’s fried (Moreton Bay) bug roll, egg net salad with pork belly and cuttlefish, and king prawn yellow curry."

"Boasting quite possibly the best view in Queensland, Rick Shores is quite literally beachfront – should you walk out the front doors your toes will touch sand. The laid-back share-style menu here features a heavy Asian twist, and has fast become a firm favourite in the state (reaching number two on the recent delicious. 100)."

Besides that, they also excel at what they do – being a bar."

This spot offers up some really gorgeous views of the coastline and, best of all, there’s a nice grassy spot on the hill to sit and watch. I love visiting this place for great photos of the green and blue contrast, with the waves rolling in behind it all."

Rock climbing faces, rainforests, waterfalls, and gorges of the McPherson Range dominate the park. A popular attraction here is the Natural Arch Bridge, where a waterfall plunges into a cave through a natural basalt arch."

"Nature lovers heading to the gorgeous coastal area of the Gold Coast will be happy to know that the area houses some of the most amazing forests and pristine national parks. Come here and explore the famous Springbrook..."
