Positives:

  • Romantic sunset views: Sunset casts golden light over the beaches, creating a perfect backdrop for couples.
  • Fast elevator ride: Reaches the 77th floor in just 43 seconds, minimizing wait time.

Challenges:

  • Weekend crowds: Longer queues and crowded viewing areas on Friday and Saturday nights.
  • Limited café seating: Window tables fill up quickly during peak hours, so reservations help.

The views are incredible! I would have paid $44 just to look at the views, but for $44 you get entry to the observation deck, plus a buffet breakfast.

We visited in the morning and discovered they offer a breakfast buffet. It's a thoughtful idea to allow guests to enjoy breakfast with the view.

If you have a dreamworld annual pass you can visit without...
