Burleigh Heads Car Rentals

Family Car Rentals guarantees the Gold Coast’s best car hire packages; Australia’s most “Consumer Friendly” rental contract terms & conditions and a genuine zero insurance excess. This gives you complete peace of mind when you select your Burleigh Heads based rental car.

Originally the Gold Coast geographic centre, Burleigh Heads is still the heart and soul of a greatly expanded City of the Gold Coast, approximately halfway between Coolangatta and Southport, and just 12Klm north of the Gold Coast Airport.

Famous for its iconic pine tree lined beach, regarded by many as the best on the Gold Coast and in the top 10 for Australia, the village atmosphere comes through as a comfortable blend of the old and the new. The Burleigh Head National Park (Australia’s smallest) dominates the landscape, providing an excellent opportunity to see indigenous flora and fauna and wonderful views of the whole Gold Coast skyline.

Take a walk around the headland to Tallebudgera Creek estuary, one of the best picnic spots you will find anywhere in Australia. The lagoon has a beach patrol in school holidays and both Burleigh Beach and Tallebudgera Beach have a beach patrol.

Visit the wonderful Jellurgal Aboriginal Cultural Centre , or get some stand up paddle board lessons.

There are many accommodation options in Burleigh Heads, high rise beachfront towers, smaller boutique apartment buildings, tourist parks and houses or units that you can find on Expedia ; Airbnb; Gumtree or a local real estate agent.

You can find the top 20 of them on our favourite accommodation guide Expedia , or you can take a tip from some of our customers who have told us about the resorts that have made them feel happy:

Dining at Burleigh Heads seems to get better and better, with everything from fish and chips takeaways to upmarket fine dining (and plenty in between).

Perhaps Burleigh is best served with café culture precincts such as James and Connor St areas with The Pantry, Social Brew , and others, and with the Lower Gold Coast Highway precinct with the Little Plate , Street Corner, Willow Dining Room, and others, or the Paddock Bakery & Burleigh Co-op a bit further north.

If you like markets, the Burleigh Art and Craft Markets are at the beach on the last Sunday of every month and The Village Markets are held at Burleigh Heads State School on the 1^st and 3^rd Sundays of every month which also houses the Burleigh Farmer’s Market every Saturday.

Whether you are a Burleigh Heads local or a visitor from elsewhere, if you need to rent a car, you can get complete peace of mind from your truly local car hire company, Family Car Rentals.
