Broadbeach on the Park occupies a very particular corner of Broadbeach: directly across from The Star, with the casino’s restaurants and theatres a pedestrian crossing away and the convention centre a short walk beyond. That draws a distinct mix of guests — show-goers over for a concert weekend, conference delegates with lanyards and laptop bags and holidaymakers who like being one street off the beach rather than on it.
What they share is the airport question and this page answers it in fixed figures: the price to each airport across three vehicle sizes, how the highway-side pickup works, what happens to a delayed arrival and why the inbound leg is quoted on its own. Every number is locked at booking — concert weekends and convention weeks included.

About Mantra Broadbeach on the Park
Mantra Broadbeach on the Park is an apartment-style hotel on the Gold Coast Highway in central Broadbeach, best known for what’s across the road: The Star Gold Coast, with its casino floor, theatres and dining precinct. The convention and exhibition centre sits within an easy walk, Pacific Fair is one tram stop or a stroll away and the beach is about eight minutes on foot through Broadbeach’s dining streets.
Room configurations, facilities and reception hours change over time — confirm current details directly with the hotel when you book your stay.
For the transfer, the highway frontage is the working detail: the pickup happens at the hotel’s highway-side entrance, coordinated with reception. Your room number on the booking keeps the driver, the front desk and your confirmation SMS aligned.
Arriving: How It Works
Whether you’re landing for a conference that starts at nine or a show that starts at eight, the arrival works the same way — pre-arranged, monitored and indifferent to whatever your airline does to the schedule.
Before you land: flight monitoring runs on every airport pickup. The flight number on the booking means the driver tracks the aircraft — an early landing brings the car forward, a delay pushes it back and neither costs you anything.
When you land: an SMS confirms the transfer, the driver’s name, vehicle registration and the exact meet point for your arrivals area. At Gold Coast Airport, meet and greet is included — the driver waits inside. At Brisbane, the SMS gives the precise spot.
Clearing the terminal: waiting isn’t charged — grace runs roughly 30–45 minutes after a domestic landing and 45 minutes to an hour after an international one, enough for bags and a composed exit rather than a sprint.
The drive: from Gold Coast Airport it’s around half an hour up the highway to the Broadbeach doorstep. From Brisbane, the Gateway, Logan Motorway and M1 take a bit over an hour, with the toll already in the fixed price.
How Arrival Pricing Works
Brisbane Airport runs cost the same in both directions — the $200 sedan figure covers a pickup at BNE exactly as it covers the drop-off, Gateway toll included, so a Brisbane arrival needs no separate quote. Gold Coast Airport is the one airport where the directions differ: pickups are $105 sedan and $135 Kia Carnival against the $90 and $120 drop-off, because collecting at OOL carries the airport access fee and includes arrivals-hall meet and greet, with your driver inside the terminal and flight monitoring on every arrival.
Book both legs on one reservation and both figures are confirmed upfront before payment — with the return leg discounted 5%.
Broadbeach on the Park to Gold Coast Airport (OOL)
The Gold Coast Airport run is about 20 km south to Coolangatta, usually 25–35 minutes. The fixed price is $90 sedan, $120 Kia Carnival — GST included, no tolls on this route and the figure holds whatever the highway is doing.
Departures are timed back from your flight: at the terminal 2 hours before domestic, 3 before international, plus the drive. The night-before SMS confirms the pickup time, driver and rego — useful discipline after a late show night, because the morning maths is already done for you.
Gold Coast Airport’s single terminal keeps the drop simple: one building, one kerb, a short walk to check-in.
Broadbeach on the Park to Brisbane Airport (BNE)
The Brisbane run covers about 80 km — the M1 north, then the Logan Motorway and Gateway — usually 65–85 minutes. The fixed price is $200 sedan, $260 Kia Carnival, with the Gateway toll and GST inside the figure. A crawling M1 lengthens the drive, never the bill.
Brisbane requires one answer at booking: the terminal. Domestic and International are separate buildings several minutes apart and your airline confirmation names the right one — the difference between a kerbside drop at your check-in row and an unplanned shuttle ride.
Conference flights out of Brisbane often leave early; a 7am departure works back to a pickup near 2:46am, which sits after-hours with the fee confirmed inside the locked quote. Booked the night the conference dates land, it’s one line of admin instead of a 6am scramble.
Airport Comparison for Broadbeach on the Park Guests
| Factor | Gold Coast Airport (OOL) | Brisbane Airport (BNE) |
|---|---|---|
| Distance from the hotel | ~20 km | ~80 km |
| Typical drive time | 25–35 min | 65–85 min |
| Private sedan, departing | $90 fixed | $200 fixed (toll included) |
| Kia Carnival, departing | $120 fixed | $260 fixed |
| Arriving | $105 fixed — meet and greet included | Same fixed price as departing |
| Terminals | One terminal | Two separate buildings — specify at booking |
| For a tight conference schedule | Half an hour of buffer needed | Budget the full hour and a half |
| Best for | Domestic east-coast flights, New Zealand, some international | Broader international network, more airline choice |
If both airports fly your route, OOL’s half-hour run usually wins — especially against a conference or show schedule where the travel window is fixed. Brisbane earns its longer drive through network: more airlines, more frequencies and sometimes the only direct flight home.
Fleet, Luggage and Fixed Pricing
✓ Prices updated
Pricing is per vehicle, not per person and every figure below is fixed. Slide or tap to compare capacity and both airport prices.
| Vehicle | Capacity | Luggage | To Gold Coast Airport (OOL) | To Brisbane Airport (BNE) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sedan or similar | 1–3 | Up to 2 large suitcases | a fixed $90 | a fixed $200 |
| 7-seat Kia Carnival | Up to 7 | Up to 6 large suitcases | a fixed $120 | a fixed $260 |
Need more than 7 seats? The 12-seat VW Transporter carries 8–11 passengers and up to 8 check-in suitcases plus 4 carry-on — quoted on request: call or message 0416 131 285 with your passenger count.
Every price includes GST and Brisbane runs include the Gateway toll. These are hotel-to-airport figures; Brisbane pickups cost the same in reverse, Gold Coast Airport pickups are $105 sedan / $135 Carnival and booking both legs on one reservation takes 5% off the return leg. Parties larger than 11 travel as multi-vehicle bookings on one reservation. An after-hours fee applies to pickups between 9pm and 6am; the prices shown assume standard-rate hours of 6am to 9pm.
Practical Tips for Your Stay
Name the hotel precisely. Broadbeach has several Mantra properties within a few blocks — “Mantra Broadbeach on the Park, Gold Coast Highway, opposite The Star” plus your room number puts the car at the right door, not a sister property’s.
Conference delegates: book when the dates land. The fixed price is the same early or late, but vehicle availability isn’t — event weeks book out the coast. One reservation covering both legs also gives you two confirmed figures for the expense claim.
Travelling as a show group? A concert crew of six with overnight bags is one Carnival, not three rideshares — one fixed price, everyone on the same kerb afterwards.
Late show, early flight — check the window. Standard hours run 6am–9pm. A pickup before 6am carries the after-hours fee, confirmed inside the quote, so the choice is made with the numbers in front of you.
Both legs, one reservation. Arrival and departure together: both prices confirmed upfront, monitoring on the inbound and 5% off the return leg.
How to Book
The online booking form takes about two minutes. Include the hotel name and room number, the airport and terminal, the flight number and time, passenger count and luggage and children’s ages if seats are needed. Payment is online by card at booking — no in-car payment. Confirmation is immediate and a driver-allocation SMS the night before carries the driver’s name, rego and pickup point.

Mantra Broadbeach on the Park Transfer FAQs
What does a transfer from Broadbeach on the Park to Gold Coast Airport cost?
$90 for a private sedan, $120 for the 7-seat Kia Carnival — fixed prices for the hotel-to-airport direction, GST included, locked at booking.
What does a transfer to Brisbane Airport cost?
$200 sedan, $260 Kia Carnival — fixed, with the Gateway Motorway toll and GST inside the figure. Traffic on the M1 doesn’t move the price.
Is the price fixed and is there a meter?
Fixed — the booked figure is the charged figure. No meter, no surge on event weekends, no fuel levy. The only variations are the after-hours fee for pickups between 9pm and 6am and a higher rate on Christmas Day and Easter Sunday — each confirmed inside the quote before payment.
Is there a discount for booking both legs?
Yes — book the arrival and departure on one reservation and the return leg is discounted 5%, with both figures confirmed before you pay.
How do I find the driver when I land at Gold Coast Airport?
Meet and greet is included at Gold Coast Airport — the driver is inside the terminal as you come through and the SMS carries their name, rego and meet point regardless.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
Nothing on your end. Flight monitoring runs on every airport pickup, the driver’s schedule follows the actual landing and waiting isn’t charged.
What does the airport pickup cost?
Brisbane Airport pickups are the same fixed price as the drop-off — $200 sedan, $260 Kia Carnival, Gateway toll included. Gold Coast Airport pickups are $105 sedan and $135 Kia Carnival, a little above the $90 and $120 drop-off, because collecting at OOL includes the airport access fee and arrivals-hall meet and greet — with flight monitoring on every arrival and no charge for waiting.
Which terminal do I tell you for Brisbane?
Domestic or International, straight off your airline confirmation — they’re separate buildings several minutes apart and the booking must name one.
Where exactly do I meet the driver at Brisbane?
The SMS you receive around landing names the meet point for your arrivals area, plus the driver’s name and vehicle registration — no kerb-scanning required.
Should I book the arrival before I fly and on the day?
Before — it loads the flight into monitoring, locks the fixed price and readies the meet-point SMS. Same-day is sometimes possible, subject to availability, but event weeks make it a gamble.
What if my mobile doesn’t work in Australia?
Tell us at booking and the meet instructions are sent before you depart, saved offline — and at Gold Coast Airport the driver’s inside on meet and greet anyway.
Which airport should I fly into for Broadbeach?
Gold Coast Airport when it serves your route — half an hour versus well over an hour from Brisbane. BNE earns the drive through its wider network, more frequencies and sometimes the only direct option.
How long are the drives to each airport?
Gold Coast Airport: about 20 km, usually 25–35 minutes. If you’re travelling in peak periods, allow up to 2 hours for the run. Brisbane Airport: about 80 km, usually 65–85 minutes via the M1, Logan Motorway and Gateway.
Where does the driver collect me for the departure?
At the hotel’s highway-side entrance, coordinated with reception — with your room number on the booking so the driver, front desk and SMS all match.
What time will I be collected for my flight?
Worked back from the flight: at the airport 2 hours before domestic or 3 before international, plus the drive and a traffic margin. The night-before SMS confirms it.
Do you provide child seats?
Yes. Queensland’s booked-hire exemption means restraints aren’t legally required in our vehicles, but Australian-Standards seats and boosters are provided and fitted on request at $35 per seat, itemised in the quote. In New South Wales there’s no equivalent exemption — children under 7 must be in an approved restraint for any NSW pickup or drop-off.
Do the arrival and departure vehicles have to be the same?
No — book each leg to its load. Arriving solo and departing with colleagues after the conference is a normal pattern; mix the sizes freely.
How much luggage can each vehicle take?
Sedan: up to 2 large suitcases plus carry-on. Kia Carnival: up to 6 large suitcases. Transporter: up to 10. Banners, AV cases and oversized items are fine — flag them at booking.
Can I book a very early or late pickup?
Yes — pre-booked pickups outside the standard 6am–9pm window carry an after-hours fee confirmed inside the locked quote. Early Brisbane departures are the usual case.
Do you charge more on show and event weekends?
No — this address lives on event weekends and the fixed price holds through all of them. No surge, ever; only Christmas Day and Easter Sunday carry a higher rate.
How is payment handled?
Online by card at booking, nothing in the car. Corporate accounts — useful for conference travel — run by prior arrangement.
What are the cancellation terms?
More than 24 hours before pickup: full credit. Within 24 hours: none. Flight cancelled: full credit over 4 hours out, 50% between 1.5 and 4 hours, none under 1.5. Credits apply to a future booking and aren’t refundable — full terms on the about page.
Do you cover the other Mantra properties in Broadbeach?
Yes — Sierra Grand and the rest of the precinct’s towers and hotels, plus every other Broadbeach address and private homes across the Gold Coast and Northern NSW.
