The Equinox is a very old high rise so if you’re looking for flashy bathrooms and kitchens, this place is not for you. BUT, if you’re looking for a comfortable bed to sleep in, a functional bathroom with a hot shower with full pressure, a basic kitchen with a full sized fridge, a big lounge room with smart tv and sofa bed, then this is the perfect place for you to stay in. Check in was easy and very friendly and informative. The Equinox has million dollar views of both the ocean and canals. We saw pods of dolphins and whales playing from the balcony. It is directly across from Main Beach so has easy access to the beach, it’s an 8 minute, easy stroll from the heart of Surfers Paradise, so perfect if you’re looking to go out on the town and not have to worry about driving home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Equinox and would definitely recommend staying there.

Property was largely occupied by elderly people who lived there. Not that this was an issue, but it did come as a bit of a surprise. I would not class it as a resort. Our apartment was only serviced (towels changed, beds made) once in our 10 day stay and apartment was a bit out dated. On a positive note the apartment was in a quiet area and located right in front of the beach with great view from the balcony. Front reception staff were friendly and helpful.

Great location and view from 7th floor. Lift is annoyingly slow. Notice of linen change would have been helpful as I was a bit startled when guy came in to my room unannounced. Box of tissues and an extra toilet roll would be good for a 9 day stay.

Always hard to review 'accurately' when rooms that are 'individually owned' may vary. For our experience, I would describe the room we were allocated as tired and long overdue for a reno. The Equinox is convenient for public transport, walking, and has lovely views with good facilities eg pool, spa, steam room, bbq's etc.

Hey please do better for long term-ers
Different owners for different rooms with different set-up. The answer I got from reception for balcony chair for 2 rather than 1. Had to ask for missing sink/ bath stoppers, or even a cutting board. I had to bring my own pair of food scissors for kitchen use. We had to improvise where we can move the big microwave so we can use the kitchen bench for food prep. we're hoping we get a better room when we get back, as we've re-booked Equinox again in near future for long term.

Fantastic location!
Fantastic location, directly across the road from the lovely beach. Proximity to cafes, pubs, restaurants and shopping was great - we walked everywhere! The hotel has seen better days but the location and the ocean & canal views from our room definitely made up for it tenfold! Added to that, undercover secure parking was free. Service was great upon check in and again upon check out. We will definitely stay here again.

Nice apart from the reception
We had to book the Equinox resort late around 5.30 pm on the day we arrived. Contacted Equinox switchboard who confirmed our booking and informed us that the property manager will meet us on site. The property managers reception was not nice. We were told off for booking late and how did we inconvenient him because he had to come back after working late that day and had to come back to check us in. The unit was nice with good views , close to entertainment, shopping and transport
