Some travelers love temporarily waving goodbye to self-sufficiency and indulging in a full-blown hotel experience -- dining out, daily maid and turndown services, the whole shebang. Others are happy to forgo typical hotel services and big-resort features and stay in an apartment-like accommodation where they can cook and even do laundry. Queensland-bound travelers who are okay with (or even prefer) a self-catering stay will do well at these eight aparthotels in Broadbeach, Cairns, Surfers Paradise, and Port Douglas.
