“Great location, cannot be beaten”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 April 2013

Stayed here many times, and simply can't fault the location and ambience of Rainbow Bay, very quiet at night compared to its rowdy neighbour at Coolangatta. The apartment is easy to live in and the carport downstairs is a bonus. Vicky and Mark are very welcoming and always remember your name and are very helpful with directions and shop locations....

“I saw a Rainbow.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 April 2013

Stayed at Rainbow Place in February in a top floor apartment which was spotlessly clean, large and comfortable. The view was absolutely fantastic with apartments directly opposite the beach.The location is the best in Rainbow Bay. Short walk to Griffith Street shops, movies and restaurants.

Hi Guys, thank you for your review. We really appreciate positive and ecouraging comments. Like yourself many of our guests see Rainbow Place Apartments as their home away from home. It is true that it is difficult to find any other location to holiday like Rainbow Bay. We too have difficulty in finding a holiday location that matches Rainbow Bay.... More

We stayed there for two weeks over New Year on the ground floor and loved every minute of our two weeks. As Queenslanders, we love holidaying in Queensland and have booked the same unit for three weeks next Dec/ Jan. Thanks to Vicky and Mark for keeping up up the good work. See you next year.
