I have stayed at Rainbow Place Apartments on a few occasions over the past 6 or 7 years. Initially I stayed at another apartment complex - I now wouldn't stay anywhere but Rainbow Place Apartments. The apartments are within easy walking distance of the town centre, shops, Surf and RSL clubs, restaurants, public transport, shopping mall, supermarkets and across the... More

We have stayed here many times over the past 6 year period. Beautifully positioned right across the road from Rainbow Bay, which is a great beach for smaller children, walking distance to shops but also very private. We love this place as it is not overly commercialised but still convienent to everything. The last time we stayed in March 2010... More

Yes Rainbow Bay is becoming more and more popular for holiday makers for it's locality to restaurants, cafes, shopping centres, cinemas etc. You simply park the car and walk everywhere.

“Great spot, best place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 May 2012

Rainbow Beach is perfectly positioned for beach and shops and has all things that make for a great holiday by the sea. I stayed in late spring last year but, before I left, booked a further 3 weeks for mid-winter this year. As the beach is north-facing, I could not imagine a better place to catch the winter sun to...

Hi Lorna, Thank you for spending the time to write a review for your favourite place (Rainbow Place Apartments) in Rainbow Bay. We agree that this is a great spot for escaping the winter chills. It is difficult to find a holiday destination that would rival Rainbow Bay with it's pristine beach and locality to the clubs, restaurants, shopping centres,... More

“Great apartments, Great area, Great holiday!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 February 2012

We stayed with our extended family, the heated pool in winter was a hit with the kids along with the adventure playground just outside on the beach front, great for skate boards. The apartments clean, the managers were great and our holiday was relaxing and enjoyed by all. Coolangatta and Rainbow Bay has all we needed, No theme parks for... More

I absolutely love this place. I stay here with the family for two weeks each summer and hope to do so forever.

This is the second time we have been at this apartment block. All apartments face rainbow bay which is one of the best surfing beaches in the world. It's also good for sun baking and playing with the kids. Why did we come back? 1. Close to the beach and one of the best positions in Rainbow Bay 2. Close... More

Stayed in unit number one which is just a walk of 15 seconds to the beach. Ground floor so no need for lift etc to walk back to your own apartment. Will definitely be returning. Heaps of amenities and everything you can need in walking distance. Try it and you will love it too i'm sure!!!

Thankyou for your favourable comment.. We have just 2 one bedroom apartments on the ground floor. They are popular with people who don't like heights and travelling in lifts. We'll see you next time. Mark & Vicky Gregory Resident Managers. More

I have stayed all over Coolangatta in different rental apartments in the past ten years. A few years ago I stayed at Rainbow Place, never looked back and have been staying there ever since. Super clean and well kept building thanks to the meticulous nature of the property managers.

We so appreciate your comments. We take a lot of pride in how our apartments are presented and are very particular on the cleaners we employ. We know what it is like to arrive at an and find a dirty and badly equiped apartment. We know people are happy with the price of our modern renovated apartments. Thanks once again... More
