Hi...has anyone stayed here before? Looks nice.
Hey all! I'm 28M and have spent a few years living overseas where I loved how active my friendship circle was (hiking, skiing, camping, live music, board games etc). I miss this feeling a lot and wanted to see if there were like minded people about (the life's too short to sit around type).
I have a wide range of hobbies ranging from hiking, learning to surf, photography, board games, learning to skate and always keen to learn new hobbies too.
Looking to build a community of genuine and fun friends that hopefully see the world in a similar way.
M28 F25 Looking for some hiking buddies for mid week and weekend adventures. Dm :)
I (25F) am looking for girly friends to ride bikes with, drink wine while sitting in the sofa gossiping, go on picnics at the beach, enjoys little crafts.
Where can I find this.
Hi all, I'm surprising my partner to a week long getaway to the Gold Coast. I have tentatively booked a self contained apt on Cavill Ave. However the Sebel in Coolangatta looks amazing and has a great deal at the moment. I have a 7yo and 5yo coming and we'll be doing most of the theme parks. Hiring a car. Anyway, question is...would Cooley be too far away for daily travels to theme parks etc and is it much of a sacrifice missing the vibes of Surfers etc? Help me decide please!
Hey everyone,
My twins are turning three and I am organising their birthday party (Expecting 20 people).
Any ideas what would be the best park. We live in Carrara but don’t think the botanic gardens will work as it’s too open and the park is a bit too grown up.
Looking for shade, a park and hopefully a fence around the lot
Welcome your thoughts
I've had good bao at Marketta..... Keen to try Light Speeds and Mr Bao. Need more bao places....
Hey Everyone!
I've got a 10 week old puppy I'm looking to properly socialise is there any puppy play groups around?
Thank you!!
Humans of the Gold Coast. Specifically those who grew up here and still live here. What are the thoughts on your 'home' is it changing? For those who did, are you happy you 'grew up' on the Gold Coast and would you bring up your kids here now? Are there any challenges that are specific to the Gold Coast? Wondering how y'all feel lol.
We have a group of 10 or so heading to the gold coast for a Bucks party. Looking for recommendations for a place for a BYO dinner. We wont be getting wild but also was to enjoy ourselves. Any suggestions?
I’ve done it once before and homeless man threw lighter at me.. it was fine, I just ignored him ..being a female with a kid singing, is it more dangerous?
Hi guys! Just in case you’ve lost or found something. I've been working on this passion project for a couple months now. I created a lost and found website for the Gold Coast called Fyndly (https://fyndlys.com). You can use it to post items you've found or stuff you've lost as well as message each other. Thank you and hope you’ll find it useful!
Hey guys,
So I'm looking at Spanish restaurants on the Gold Coast, and it really warms my heart to see so many options. I don't live near the Gold Coast, so I haven't been to any of these before (visiting the Gold Coast for a weekend soon). So I wanted to ask you guys who live on the Gold Coast (or at least visit very frequently), does anyone know any Spanish restaurants that actually have Spanish speaking staff? Or is it a Spanish speaking country only thing.
Thanks!
Just wondering if anyone could suggest a good physio for runners?
Thanks!
Thinking for a large event to charter a boat from Broadbeach down to tweed, is this possible in the canal/ river system or in the ocean?
Around Varsity Lakes or close by, 2 or more meetings a week.
Inspired by the similar post on the Brisbane sub!
Make me laugh please. I’m sick right now!
I'm a guy from Colombia and I haven't been here for a long time but I would like to meet a girl for something casual, the one interested here. If you know anything about sexual or swinger/single type meetings, I'm curious about that, please let me know.
Anyone have any restaurant recommendations for a special birthday dinner? Happy to travel anywhere from tallai to Broadbeach! Tia!
Currently only international flights to NZ or Bali (temp. flights to HK for Chinese new year)
I was in Bangkok trying to get home and flights were mostly sold out or over $2000, unless you wanted a 3 flight 33 hour journey for a bit less. I had to spend $2300 to get back just to Brisbane, followed by train and uber.
WTF, people are travalling in droves outside Aus. and a holiday destination like GC has basically only Bali direct access (NZ doesnt count ;)) We at least need direct flights to a transit hub like KL, singapore or Bangkok.
Theres been a few threads in the last year about the dire flight options for direct to/from OOL and the state of the GC airport costs.
Is there any good news on the horizon?
If the management of OOL are so bad, can't QLD gov. step in or something to improve things?
Who do I need to write an letter to about improving this?
Just wanting to know if there's any frenchie owners out there who have any tips or tricks to stop their dogs from barking, my girlfriend has one and she can't leave the house for no longer than 2 minutes cause he starts barking when she isn't with him, she's tried using a barking monitor and tried using calming drops and neither of them seem to work, she's pretty much tried most solutions and not having much luck.
Coming back from work today i saw bloody footprints all around where the westpac branch is in southport. I did not saw any ambulance or police there and the footprints were also of someone bare feet. They were all over the place and felt like maybe someone injured was running away. I tried to search that on google but nothing came up.
Just wondering if someone knows anything about this or what happened there ?
Hi Community! I am looking for a recommendation for a Plungie pool installer on the Gold Coast - any ideas? We're looking to install the "Original" - we've had one quotation but looking to compare as this quote came in at about $55k.
Been stuck in this for an hour, good luck to everyone trying to go north.
