Bummer...you would need a car. I am sure you will have a great time :-) shopping is good maybe head to the casino and see a show? And the buffet dinner there is ace :-)

TBH we are going just as a nice w/end, the two of us without kids to rela and not rush around, we don't really plan to go and spend a day doing certain things i think we will just see how we go.. BUT
it's nice to know there are some ok things to do there - buffet dinner at the casino sounds good
We looked at staying there actually

Cool Luther relax and just stay in your hotel...actually there is a great teppanyaki bar we go to will find out the name :-)

The place we are staying had the revolving restaurant, people say it's a great view but not necessarily worth the price, any reviews?

Cavil Ave has heaps of restaurants, to me, it's basically the hub of Surfers. I love Charlie's, but in saying that, it's been many years since I've been there! We walked from our accomm near the heart of Surfers to Jupiter's Casino, took us forever and it wasn't worth it. If you're used to Crown, then Jupiter's isn't much. If you wanted to do one of the theme parks, they have shuttle buses from most hotels direct to the theme park. When DH and I went, we went to Sea World and Wet and Wild - thoroughly enjoyed both (and Wet and Wild has an awesome river thing that you float around in, goes around the park. Was heaven!)

Have a blast, am so jealous! I love the Gold Coast.
