The racecourse was nothing out of the ordinary, reminded me of country Victoria racetracks. Although every was in easy distance. By staying at Paradise Isles got free entry into the track.

Love Love Love the GCTC!!! Skyline Restaurant is absolutely fantastic. The food is bordering on 6 Star and the service is unbelievable. Service is really lacking on the Gold Coast so a day of racing in paradise at the Skyline Restaurant restores your confidence in hospitality. The staff were not obtuse but were plentiful and attentive. Could not fault any... More

Needs a massive overhaul as the facilities are very out dated. The air conditioning wasn't working in the Members Bar or couldn't keep up with the crowd and a basic lack of member facilities. Still a rreat day at Magic Millions though.

Always a fun day out at the Gold Coast Turf Club. I have been going to race meetings there since I was a child. Fun day out with mates or family.

I like the racing there, the upstairs general public area was big and plenty of seating. The bar staff were friendly and helpful. Food could have been better
