Why Burleigh is the Best Base on the Gold Coast

Burleigh Heads is the real Gold Coast. No high-rise towers, no tourist traps. Just a great beach, excellent food, and a relaxed vibe that keeps people coming back.

Burleigh Beach is one of Australia's best, and it is 100 metres from our door. The headland walking track offers ocean views without the crowds. James Street has the best cafes and restaurants on the Coast. Miami Marketta has street food and live music every weekend.
