Gold Coast Airport pickup to the Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach resorts is $105 sedan or $135 Kia Carnival; Sanctuary Cove and Hope Island are $145 / $175; Brisbane Airport to the central Gold Coast resorts is $200 / $260 — GST and tolls included, locked at booking. Golf bags travel in the Kia Carnival, which takes up to 7 people and 4 golf bags, with the bags flat in the back — tell us how many when you book so we allocate the right vehicle.

The Gold Coast Golf Circuit
The trip staples are all inside CGC’s fixed zones: RACV Royal Pines at Benowa with its championship 36 holes, Sanctuary Cove’s Palms and Pines behind the gatehouse (access handled on every booking), Links Hope Island, Lakelands’ Nicklaus layout and Palm Meadows. Arrivals at OOL are met in the hall with clubs loaded onto the trolley for you; BNE arrivals coordinate kerbside by SMS. Multi-day itineraries — airport, resort, three courses, airport — price as one fixed figure at booking.
Experience Gold Coast, the city’s official destination body, counts more than 35 courses across the Gold Coast with the public welcome to play at all but two — which is why golf itineraries here hop between Benowa, Merrimac and Hope Island rather than staying put at one resort.

|---|---|---|---|
| Sedan or similar | 1–3 passengers | 2 large cases + 2 carry-on | Couples and solo travellers with standard luggage (no surfboards or golf bags) |

How do we get our golf clubs from the airport to the resort?
In the vehicle with you — no couriers, no extra legs. Golf bags travel in the Kia Carnival, which takes up to 7 people and 4 golf bags — they don’t fit a sedan. Your driver meets you inside the arrivals hall at Gold Coast Airport, helps load the bags, and they stay with you door to door. For larger groups our 12-seat VW Crafter (up to 11 passengers) is priced in the booking form. If your itinerary runs several courses in a day, full-day hire from $750 keeps the same vehicle and driver with your clubs on board all day.
“Four golfers and four travel bags is the booking I see most, and the Carnival takes it with room to spare. The bags ride flat rather than stood on end so the heads don’t take a knock on the M1, and I meet you inside the arrivals hall at Gold Coast Airport rather than circling the pickup lane while you find a trolley.”
FAQs
Can you carry golf clubs?
Yes — flag the club count at booking. The Kia Carnival takes up to 7 people and 4 golf bags; groups of 8–11 with up to 8 bags (more with the luggage trailer) take the 12-seat VW Crafter (up to 11 passengers), priced in the booking form.
Is there a surcharge for golf bags?
No — golf travel bags ride at no surcharge; the fixed figure covers the vehicle, passengers and luggage.
Which courses do you service?
All of them — Royal Pines, Sanctuary Cove, Links Hope Island, Lakelands, Palm Meadows and every other course and resort inside the fixed zones.
Can you run us between courses across a trip?
Yes — multi-day and course-to-course itineraries are quoted as one fixed figure at booking.
Do you pick up on time after the round?
Return legs are pre-booked with the driver positioned for your finish time — and both legs on one reservation takes 5% off the return.
How many golfers fit in one vehicle with their clubs?
Four in the Kia Carnival, which takes up to 7 people and 4 golf bags, so non-golfers can ride along too. Golf bags don’t fit a sedan. Bigger golf groups book a second Kia Carnival or our 12-seat VW Crafter (up to 11 passengers), priced in the booking form.
Can you pick us up from Brisbane Airport and take us straight to the golf resort?
Yes — Brisbane Airport to the central Gold Coast golf resorts is a fixed $200 sedan or $260 Kia Carnival, Gateway toll and GST included, and your driver meets you at arrivals.
Do you transfer to Sanctuary Cove and Hope Island courses?
Yes — Gold Coast Airport pickup to Sanctuary Cove and Hope Island is a fixed $145 sedan or $175 Kia Carnival, met inside the terminal.
Can we book one vehicle for a full day across several courses?
Yes — full-day hire from $750 for the Kia Carnival keeps one vehicle and driver with your group and your clubs all day, ideal for 36-hole days or society trips across multiple courses.
What if our flight lands late in the evening?
Your flight number is tracked, so a delayed arrival moves the pickup with it — the driver watches the actual landing time, not the ticketed one, and the fixed fare does not change.
Do you wait while we finish the round?
On a full-day hire, yes — the vehicle and driver stay with your group for the day. For single transfers we schedule the pickup time you nominate, with a call if the round runs long.
Can we split the group across two vehicles?
Yes — two Kia Carnivals take 8 golfers and their golf bags (4 in each), arriving together. Book both on one reservation and the logistics are coordinated for you.
Is there a discount for booking the return to the airport?
Yes — book both legs on one reservation and the return leg carries a 5% discount. Most golf groups book arrival and departure together.
Which Gold Coast golf courses do you service?
All of them — RACV Royal Pines, Palm Meadows, Lakelands, Links Hope Island, Sanctuary Cove, The Grand, Burleigh and the rest. If there is a clubhouse, we deliver to its door.
Can you stop for supplies on the way to the course?
Short stops are fine on a fixed transfer — mention it when booking. For a round of stops, full-day hire is the better fit.
What happens if it rains and we cancel the trip?
More than 24 hours out you receive a full credit to rebook when the weather clears. Within 24 hours the fare is committed — drivers are already scheduled.
Do you do early tee-time pickups?
Yes — pre-dawn pickups are routine, so a 5:30am hotel pickup for a 7am tee time is a normal job with the same fixed fare, booked the day before.
Can non-golfers ride along?
Of course — the fare covers the vehicle, so partners heading to the spa or the shops ride at no extra cost within the vehicle’s capacity.
How do we get a quote for a golf group?
Run your pickup and drop-off through the online quote for an instant fixed price, or message 0416 131 285 with the group size and courses — group itineraries are priced the same day.
