No head office, no franchise manual, no hidden fees at checkout. Just a family that has run this motel for more than ten years and cares how it looks the morning after a full house.
Coastal Mile Motel sits at 1908–1910 Gold Coast Highway in Miami, right between Burleigh Heads and Miami Beach. Thirty-six rooms, more than 975 Google reviews averaging 4.7 stars, and an editorial mention from Virgin Australia as one of the better budget picks in Burleigh Heads.
Nobody here is checking a compliance manual before cleaning your room. The people who run the place are the same people who answer the phone — which tends to change how a business is run.
Every room is properly turned over between stays — fresh linen, a spotless ensuite, air conditioning that works, and a shower with genuine pressure. It sounds like the basics, because it is. We just don’t treat it as optional.
There’s no upselling at check-in and no surprise line-item at checkout. What you see on this site is the rate you pay.
Reception is staffed 9:00am to 7:30pm every day, and calling (07) 5576 3211 gets you a person, not a menu. Room request, access question, or you just want to know where the locals actually get breakfast — ask. We live here.
An editorial pick, not a paid placement. Virgin’s travel team included us in their Gold Coast where-to-stay guide on the strength of guest reviews, location, and genuine value. We work to keep earning it.
“Cleaner than I expected for the price.”
“Easy walk to the beach, cafes and the bus.”
“Staff actually answer the phone.”
“Free parking felt like a bonus these days.”
We’re on the Gold Coast Highway in Miami — one of the better-placed budget stays on the southern Coast if beach access matters more than a Surfers Paradise price tag.
Sunset walks, headland views, and rooftop bars a short drive away. Doubles from $125/night.
Family rooms sleep five from $195; interconnecting rooms sleep six from $295. Pool for the kids, parks within 32 minutes.
Clean, safe, and easy to navigate car-free — the bus stop 300m away covers the whole Coast.
Weekly rates on request and free parking for utes, subject to availability.
Quad and family rooms, plus interconnecting rooms for larger crews.
Free Wi-Fi, free parking, and a quiet room to work from. Midweek rates on direct bookings.
The Christine Avenue interchange for Gold Coast Light Rail Stage 3 opens on our corner mid-2026 — tram access to Broadbeach and Surfers Paradise, plus the existing bus routes, all a few steps from reception. Expect some roadworks noise along the highway until then.
Clean rooms, honest prices, and a beach 200 metres down the road. That’s the whole pitch.
