About this property

Rainbow Retreat - 3 Bed Ocean Views, SPA on Roof Terrace

Welcome to RAINBOW RETREAT @ THE BAY.

A beautiful 3-bedroom top floor apartment located in the very popular family beach resort, The Bay Apartments. 

Designed for comfort and relaxation, this modern coastal retreat is the perfect place to unwind after a day exploring the coastline between the world-famous surf break Snapper Rocks and Coolangatta.

Ocean views of Rainbow Bay Beach and sweeping views across the ocean through to the Surfers Paradise skyline can be seen from the rooftop terrace with private hot tub/spa.

Set on the top floor, the apartment is light filled, modern and spacious with relaxed beach aesthetic throughout. The open plan living and dining area flows beautifully to the rooftop balcony, creating the perfect space to enjoy the sea breeze.

The apartment sleeps 6 and comprises 3 stylish bedrooms, with the oversized master bedroom, walk in robe and ensuite situated on the upstairs level.

The modern kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook and entertain, while the generous living space is perfect for relaxing after a day at the beach.



A lagoon style pool surrounded by palm trees, modern- & comfortable-day beds & a communal hot tub/spa are available for guests to use. As is a fully equipped BBQ and shaded eating areas for those lazy days around the pool. Rainbow Bay’s Little Mali beach cafe, Switchfoot Cafe & Black Dingo Cafe are all a short stroll away & offer amazing coffee and delicious & nutritious breakfast & lunch options. There are 3 Surf Clubs & Twin Towns Services club is also a short walk away and offers an array of dining & entertainment options.

Snorkelling at the famous Mini D’Bar Beach is also within walking distance & a must when visiting this beautiful area.

Guests are welcome to access the entire apartment, the private hot tub/spa on the rooftop terrace and also the communal hot tub/spa and lagoon swimming pool.

There is also a communal BBQ for guests to use, located within the pool area.

Rainbow Bay beach is within 100 metres and is widely regarded as one of the Gold Coast's most beautiful beaches, a tranquil and picturesque cove nestled between two rocky outcrops, Greenmount and Snapper Rocks. Gentle rolling surf, safe swimming conditions and all year-round surf patrol ensure it is a popular choice for families.



It is imperative that guests understand that they are booking the 3rd Level Rooftop Apartment 32 on the basis that there is NO LIFT access in The Bay Apartments - only stairs. However, it should not impact negatively on your stay. In fact, the benefit of subconscious daily exercise and the stunning rooftop terrace views that await vastly outweigh any case of tired legs :):) As you will see from the reviews, the stairs are not an issue for guests.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a flat-screen TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Simply beautiful

This apartment was simply beautiful. It is stylish and clean and the host added so many personal touches to make our stay truly memorable. The location is handy to everything as well. I highly recommend this place. The only down factor is that there is no lift and the 3 flights of stairs was the daily exercise. But if you dont mind this once you enter the apartment a lovely tranquil oasis awaits you.

The unit I stayed in was magnificent. The host didn't miss any detail and provided many little extras and comforts. It’s a great location. The only thing was it has no lift so I got my daily exercise but otherwise could’t fault it. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay

A delightful holiday getaway with lots of creature comforts.

This property is delightful in every possible way. It's spacious and well-appointed as a 'home-away-from-home' but decorated to reflect the beach holiday atmosphere. Everything is within walking distance - beach, lots of restaurants and shops. The very private hot spa on the deck is a special treat! This property is ear-marked for a future stay!

Bliss at the Bay!

Very comfortable accommodation that worked beautifully for my adult family. There was ample space for the four of us and everything is perfect! Even a small hamper full of goodies! The location is wonderful! I have enjoyed getting a lot of exercise daily with close proximity to beautiful daily walks and swims. Was able to catch the bus up to Surfers as well. A wonderful break, hopefully we can return some time soon! Thank you to a wonderful host Juanita.

Cooly Rocks accommodation

The townhouse apartment is located a short walk to Rainbow bay beach and Twin Towns Services Club. The living area is spacious and kitchen is well equipped. I was very please to find a large fridge/freezer to accommodate groceries for large families if needed. The upper level bedroom area is huge with a full size bathroom and a balcony/deck with a spa and outdoor furniture to accommodate a small gathering of friends. Our small group enjoyed the beautiful sunsets and views through to the ocean. The 2nd bedroom on the lower level was a good size, but the 3rd bedroom with twin beds was quite compact with minimal storage. The complex does not contain a lift, so the 3 flights of stairs improved our fitness on a daily basis.
