Surfers Paradise Tourist Traps: 3 reviews and 0 photos

Watch out for people in Surfers Paradise (particularly at Chevron Renaissance) who offer you prizes for nothing. These are just scams to get you in to there time share seminars. You have to sit through a 2 hour session with a salesman trying his best to suck you into handing over alot of money, before they will give you your prize, which is not worth it. Trust me, I've been there and done it!!

Unique Suggestions: If you don't mind wasting 2 hours for a bottle of wine or some dodgy holiday, go for it.

Fun Alternatives: I suggest to just say no to the prize, and just keep walking.

Review Helpfulness: 2.5 out of 5 stars
