Booking & rates
These are the booking questions guests ask before they put a card down — rates, room types, weekly stays, and why booking direct is cheaper than a platform.
Why book direct instead of a booking platform?
Booking direct with Burleigh Gold Coast Motel gets you the best price — no platform booking fees and no resort fees added at checkout.

Why stay at a motel instead of a hotel on the Gold Coast?
A motel gives you parking at your door and a rate you can read before you book. Burleigh Gold Coast Motel is family-run in Miami, 200m from Burleigh Beach, with one free parking space per room (subject to availability), an outdoor pool, and doubles from $125/night. There is no resort fee.
How far are you from Surfers Paradise, and is it cheaper to stay here?
Burleigh Gold Coast Motel sits in Miami, between Burleigh Heads and Surfers Paradise, with doubles from $125/night.

Yes — Burleigh Gold Coast Motel offers weekly and extended-stay rates on request. Standard nightly rates start from $125 for a double. Call (07) 5576 3211 for a quote before you book, or book nightly at burleighmotel.com.au/bookyourstay.
