Family-friendly vacation rentals in Varsity Lakes

I will be back again . the view was excellent

Kim was an excellent host. It was nice and clean and had good restaurants around it. Also within walking distance of public transport and the beach which was really what we look for in accomodation. Host was also incredibly kind and responsive. Would stay again! Thanks Kim :)

Wonderful location and a thoughtfully presented unit with everything you needed for a comfortable stay

The apartment is great, in a great location, with an incredible view. I simply loved it and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to go to the Gold Coast.

We will miss the incredible views! None of our subsequent accommodations will ever be as good! The unit was spacious and comfortable. Having the tram just outside - for 50 cents! - was so convenient. Bed and furniture were very comfortable. Shaleah was quick to provide helpful suggestions. We loved the hop on hop off ferry! And don't miss the night market along the waterfront three nights per week. Thank you, Shaleah!

Great stay! The apartment is in a fantastic location and was clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

The accommodation, was amazing!! close to everything and a quick tram ride if not walkable. It was lovely and the views were incredible.

fantastic host fantastic location the unit was well equipped and so homely would highly recommend to everyone 🥰🥰

Amazing location and beautiful property. My partner and I had a wonderful and relaxing stay with our two dogs

A beautiful place to stay. Very happy and would highly recommend.

My stay here was great! It was very clean and tidy and lots of little extra things were provided to help make my stay more comfortable. The place looks exactly like the pictures. It’s not a far walk to the beach and lots of restaurants and things to do close by. Clear instructions were also provided on how to access the place! Would definitely recommend staying here!

This gem of a Queenslander affords the quintessential Australian experience. From the beautiful polished hardwood floors, the high ceilings, the large dining room table separated from the ample living space to the back patio with a table to seat 8, this house has it all. There are plenty of towels, pillows and blankets and ample closet space to unpack and store your luggage out of sight. The kitchen is well appointed- including enough wine glasses for any sized celebration!! - and Fiona has thought of all the daily items that you need. We really appreciated the large bottle of water already chilling in the fridge after our long day of travel as well as the Tim Tams that provided a quick pick me up. For American travelers, you will need to Google French press as there is no drip coffee maker but that just adds to the charm of the house. Easy access to the M1, in a quiet street with a coffee place and a service station within walking distance, Main Beach and Surfers' Paradise <15min.

Sparklingly clean place, excellent location, very dog friendly with the treats and accessories, baby friendly too with the cot provided. Good place to stay for our family of four + 1 baby + 1 dog!

Best air b n b I’ve ever stayed in! Check in was so easy and communication with the hosts was so quick. Perfect location next to the tram and the beach as well 🙌 The place was stunning, immaculately clean and decorated so nicely

Accommodation had everything we needed, was clean and easy to use. Instructions were clear and way to follow. Keryn was very responsive to a minor issue we encountered. Location is optimal. We took our own cappuccino maker but there is a French Press pot or kettle for making coffee.

Suited us perfectly. We just needed a comfortable place to stay as we were out the majority of the time. would recommend for sure.

Nicks place was perfect for us and the kids and Nick was a great host, very helpful and accomodating. We can’t wait to get back there.

We really enjoyed our stay! A lovely view and great use of the space downstairs. Awesome hosts made for a great experience from reservation to checkout!

Had a great stay close to Carrara Sports centre

Our group of 10 stayed at Michelle’s property which was absolutely fantastic! The space was impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything a large group needed for a comfortable 2 night stay. Michelle was incredibly accommodating and very responsive, making sure we had all the information we needed and checking in to ensure everything was perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this place for family/larger groups visiting the area.

We had a wonderful stay at Glen & Keryn’s. The property has a beautiful Bali-inspired feel and is in a great location, just a short walk to the beach and close to plenty of dining options. The pool looked amazing, though the weather didn’t allow us to use it. The atmosphere was relaxing, and Glen was incredibly welcoming and great to chat with. Highly recommend!

We had an incredible stay at Judy’s place! As newcomers to the town, we were truly touched by her kindness and generosity. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, even taking us to places we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. She didn’t have to do any of it, but she did—with such warmth and care. The property itself was fantastic—clean, comfortable, and in a great location. But what truly made our stay special was the hospitality we received. We are so glad we chose this place and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful Airbnb experience. Thank you, Judy, for making our stay unforgettable! 💕✨

Very easy process. Quick responses. Great location. Value for money. Highly recommend Martin and the apartment.

A Perfect Getaway – Absolutely Loved It! Our stay at Karen’s Tiny House was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we arrived, Karen greeted us with a smile, making us feel instantly at home. Her kindness and attention to detail set the tone for an incredible stay where we didn't want for anything. The one-bedroom unit itself was simply stunning! Filled with natural light, beautifully furnished, and thoughtfully designed, every inch of the space was both stylish and comfortable. It truly felt like a luxurious retreat in a cozy setting, and we felt special being there. Beyond the home, the property itself was wonderful—peaceful, scenic, and the perfect place to unwind. Karen has truly created a gem of an Airbnb, and we couldn’t recommend it highly enough! If you're looking for a charming, comfortable, and beautifully curated place to stay, this is it. If ever in the area again we wouldn't hesitate to return. Thanks so much :-) Shannon & Lucy
