Spread the love

If you’re looking for a bit of love on the Gold Coast, this three-day romantic itinerary ticks all the right boxes, taking in blissful beaches, delectable dining and height-defying activities.

Day One

Check in like royalty at The Langham Gold Coast

Nestled between Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach, The Langham Gold Coast is the first new beachfront luxury hotel to open here in more than 30 years.

A heady mix of sophisticated style meets coastal charm within its 169 hotel rooms. We recommend you and your love book an Executive Ocean Suite boasting a stunning panorama of the sparkling Pacific. Beyond the rooms are six dining options, including the refined yet casual plates at Akoya and fine-dining Cantonese cuisine at T’ang Court. Talk to your concierge about reserving a table for your final night.

Lunch

Enjoy an intimate lunch with farm-fresh flair at The North Room at Mermaid Beach.

Seats are a hot commodity at The North Room, making your dining experience even more special. Plus, the intimate dining room has space for just 16 guests, it’s the perfect place for a romantic date. The degustation menu is four or five courses, and it changes daily depending on what the kitchen team can source fresh from local farmers, makers, bakers and fishermen. The restaurant is open for lunch every Friday and Saturday (and dinner Thursday to Saturday) so reservations are essential.

Afternoon sailing

Sailing in Paradise will show you the coast from another angle. Recline on the trampoline-style foredeck of your luxe catamaran, drinking in unobstructed horizon views over Broadwater, South Stradbroke and Wavebreak Islands.

Choose a private charter and take to the seas at twilight for the ultimate date night. You’ll get to watch the sun sink behind the Gold Coast Hinterland, drink in hand. Or, if time is on your side, take a longer day sail of three to six hours. You’ll be able to indulge in a seafood barbecue and have a seasoned crew to tender to your every whim.
