Marriott Vacation Club is proud to announce the opening of Marriott Vacation Club at Surfers Paradise, in Gold Coast, a top vacation spot in Australia. The new resort — and its mix of spacious deluxe guestrooms and deluxe one-bedroom suites — is located at the iconic and award-winning Surfers Paradise Marriott Resort & Spa.

“Our Owners, Members and guests can now enjoy incredible stays at one of the world’s finest beach destinations,” said Stephen P. Weisz, president and chief executive officer of Marriott Vacations Worldwide. “We’ve redefined the Australian vacation experience by matching the unique amenities and activities of the famous Surfers Paradise Marriott Resort and Spa with the signature hospitality and service of Marriott Vacation Club. Our guests will be immersed in the best of Australia’s Gold Coast, enhanced with Marriott quality and attention to detail.”

Marriott Vacation Club is thoroughly remodeling the 88 rooms, some of which can be turned into deluxe two-bedroom suites to accommodate larger families. All rooms have balconies that overlook Gold Coast’s Surfers Paradise, an area of Australia known for its pure white sand, challenging surf breaks, lush green rainforests and blue Pacific waters. Each room at Marriott Vacation Club at Surfers Paradise offers complimentary Wi-Fi, flat-screen televisions and daily housekeeping service.

Owners, Members and guests staying at Marriott Vacation Club at Surfers Paradise enjoy all the world-class amenities and activities featured by Surfers Paradise Marriott Resort & Spa, including fresh and saltwater lagoons where they can swim through cascading waterfalls, snorkel among colorful fish or relax in aquatic quiet zones. Guests will discover delicious, eclectic food — and stunning views of the lagoon and tropical gardens —at the resort’s many dining and cocktail experiences. Top-to-toe pampering is available at the full-service Ruby Spa and a fitness center keeps guests in shape. Youngsters will stay busy at the activities center or playing on the multipurpose sport court. Bike rentals and tennis are available and four challenging golf courses are just a short drive away.
