The resort is approximately 22 km from Gold Coast Airport (Coolangatta) and the drive typically takes between 20 and 30 minutes depending on traffic conditions. School holiday periods can see heavier traffic on the Gold Coast Highway, so we recommend scheduling your transfer with a comfortable buffer after your flight lands.
