JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort and Spa pool
The best pool on the Gold Coast, this one blows all the others out of the water. In the form of a saltwater lagoon and beach, this pool features hundreds of tropical fish and an artificial coral reef for you to snorkel and explore. You can also scuba dive or swim through waterfalls, rock grottos and spas, or have a drink at the pool bar.
Mantra Sun City Surfer’s Paradise pool
This beautiful lagoon style pool is set in lush tropical gardens and features amazing snake-like slides that weave around the back of the pool to deposit you with a splash. The hotel itself is Aztec-inspired, and this theme is carried throughout the many pools on offer. With a fun whirlpool, several spas and even a pool full of fish, your day out at the Mantra Sun will be heaven.
Paradise Resort pool
With a brand new water park and pool, you can’t go past this hotel for a great day by the pool. There’s a tipping bucket waterfall, water cannons, water slides, and three stories of everything aquatic you can dream of. With a special kids section including mini slippery slides, it’s a great place for all members of the family.
