The Gold Coast absolutely explodes at Indy and accommodation, especially on track accommodation or apartments with track views, should be booked some time in advance to secure. Booking in advance can sometimes save some cash as everything seems to go up prior to the event. For apartments on track you will require special passes to access your accommodation, so be sure to aquire these. If Surfers or Main Beach is booked out, or outside your budget take a look at Broadbeach and Mermaid Beach which are still close, by transport, to the track.
