Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Varsity Lakes

Fantastic place, spacious, clean and great outdoor decking and pool areas. House has all needed amenities including good laundry and is very private. Access was easy and plenty of parking available. Perfect for families. Location is 3 mins from Benowa Village shopping centre which is very convenient. Support and communication from Janett was also great. We had a wonderful stay!

We had an incredible stay at Waterfall Drive, Wongawallan. The property is an absolute haven — tucked away in the scenic Gold Coast hinterland, yet still close enough to shops and coastal attractions. The home itself is spacious, beautifully maintained, and designed to make the most of the surrounding natural beauty. Waking up each morning to the sounds of nature and expansive views of the rolling hills was a true highlight. The outdoor areas are stunning, perfect for relaxing with a coffee or wine, and the peaceful atmosphere makes it feel like your own private retreat. Inside, the layout is both functional and luxurious — ideal for families or couples looking for space, comfort, and privacy. The kitchen was well-equiped.

Matt’s property is amazing! The house is very spacious and has everything you need for an enjoyable and comfortable stay. Being right on the water is delightful, the kayaks and SUPs are great fun. Unfortunately it was too cold for us to try the pool but it looked fantastic. Stayed with our two small children and there was lots to keep them entertained, and everything we needed for an easy stay with toddlers. Thanks again Matt!

Second stay at this amazing place! Kynan was very responsive to our queries and the house is set up so well. Love the location on the water with beautiful morning and evening views.

Staying at Karen’s place was an absolute pleasure. The location was perfect, the home was cozy and sparkling clean, and Karen was always available to answer our questions. Highly recommended!

I loved dealing with Deirdre. She was so easy to communicate with, and we loved the home. It worked really well for us. We would like to come back again.

Karen was a lovely host and very responsive with anything we needed. Would recommend

We had a great two night stay here. Great location, big secure backyard for the dogs and the beach and local bars and restaurants on your doorstep.

Had a lovely stay at Lincoln’s place. The house was exactly as described and extremely clean and neat. Beautiful home!

Thanks for a wonderful weekend! Rare to find a place with plenty of bedrooms and beds for a group getaway in such a central location, close to beach, breweries, coles, restaurants and more. Pool was lovely, living areas well presented, and in a very quiet neighborhood.

Our stay was amazing!! The location was very central to everything and came with a bit of noise - as expected when you are in the heart of everything. Oxy’s communication was five star all the way!! The beds were comfortable, pillows great, kitchen well equipped and plenty of basic supplies to see us through. I would highly recommend and would stay again. Just to note the car park was a bit tight but certainly manageable. We had an SUV and just had to be careful when parking. Thanks for the Tim Tams too!

Christine & Andy were wonderful hosts! They responded quickly and clearly to all of our questions and were very welcoming ☺️ We will definitely recommend their place to friends and family and will likely come back ourselves 💕

Cannot recommend this place enough, it’s so clean and cute. Perfect location, beautiful property and the host is beyond accommodating. She went out of her way to help us, was so responsive and kind. So friendly and welcoming. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would!

Lana was super lovely, very accommodating and easy to communicate with. The place was very clean on arrival and great location. Pet friendly which was amazing for us as we are traveling with our cat!

Nice and clean. It was so great that Estelle let us early which is so great. Love the bathroom bath and wash stuff smells amazing. amazing apartments would love to go back. My dogs had the best time going to the beach which is walking distance. Thank you

Excellent host, excellent location, and excellent place! Truly an incredible experience - my partner and I stayed here and we will definitely be staying here again! The host is amazing and responds fast, check in/out was easy, and the apartment is super clean, nice, and cozy! Right across from the beach, too! :)

Excellent value for a place that’s a few mins walk from world class beaches. I really appreciated being able to stay there with my dog. Even though it is an older building, inside was great and welcoming. I didn’t mind the stairs up as I’m used to them. Everything you need and Chris was friendly and helpful.

We really enjoyed our stay in Varsity Lakes! The house was spacious, clean and was a great place for us to stay while we were on the Gold Coast to participate in the Gold Coast running festival. It's only a short drive to a number of restaurants, cafes etc. and also not far from Burleigh Heads, so a good location to make the most of our stay. Larissa was a great host! very responsive and clear on messages. Check in and out was super easy, and we were even able to bring our little dog along with us, which was very much appreciated. I would definitely recommend this place if staying on the Gold Coast!

We had a nice 2 night stay at Natalie's apartment in Burleigh Heads. the place was very clean and spacious. The only downside (totally out of Natalie's control) was the works on the main road out the front of the apartment and the bright lights from the building across the park (an eye mask would help with that). Natalie had fantastic communication and very friendly to communicate with. Nice and close to 3 breweries, a distillery and Coles and Aldi just 450m walk down the road. We would highly recommend staying at this accommodation.

Barnaby was truly amazing! He was very accommodating to me and my little family from beginning to end. He checked in to see if we needed new sheets, which was great. I think the only things that were a tiny downfall was not having a spare clothes rack to dry our clothes and a few bathmats to change over (I used one of our own towels and alternated) and some face washes to wash our daughters face in the shower before bed. Otherwise we had a wonderful stay!!

By far best place i’ve stayed in. Beautiful location, beautiful views, and Ryan was very easy & friendly to talk too. Will be back.

We had such a lovely stay, the guest house is very spacious and modern. The bathroom is huge (always a winner) and its very private. There is a fabulous outlook and a lovely outdoor area. The kitchen is big and very well stocked, the bed and linen was very comfortable. The property is fully fenced so the fur babies were safe and there's a pool! The entire guest house is very spacious. Easy street parking and good WIFI. Hayley was a pleasure to deal with, very responsive and helpful. Not sure about public transport so you do need a car but there are plenty of spots to shop, eat and drink a 2-minute drive down the road and the beach is very close. Would happily stay again.

lovely town house. walking distance to everything we needed. extremely good value.

Scott and Karla were great, very helpful and pleasant to talk to.
