The 5 best gift basket stores on the Gold Coast to make you look like the best gift-giver
As people often say about gifts, “It’s the thought that counts.” They don’t have to be fancy, sparkly, or expensive—just something that shows how much you value the person or people you’re giving it to.
Still, when it’s for someone we love or want to thank, we tend to go all out and think of a gift idea that checks all the boxes. We aim for an item that says, “This reminds me of you,” and feels like it costs half our paycheck.
But have you ever thought of gift baskets filled with the recipient’s needs and favorite things? Gold Coast’s best gift basket stores are ready to help you give with meaning on every occasion—from birthdays and anniversaries to corporate gifting or just-because moments!
| How much do gift baskets cost on the Gold Coast stores? Gift baskets on the Gold Coast stores typically range from $35 for small snack packs to over $250 for premium or custom hampers. Prices vary based on size, contents (e.g. wine, gourmet food, bath products), packaging, and same-day delivery or personalization needs. |
1. Gifts On the Gold Coast
Address: Maudsland Qld
Phone: +61 434 618 936
Business hours: Monday-Sunday, 24 hours
Gifts on the Gold Coast isn’t just loved by locals—it’s also a favorite among gift-givers abroad. People from England and New Zealand have used this store to send gift baskets to their loved ones in the city for birthdays, anniversaries, and Father’s Day.
One of the things customers appreciate most is the speedy and careful delivery. Whether it’s same-day or next-day, the accommodating staff make sure the gift arrives on time and in good condition, while giving updates every step of the way.
Clients often go for The Gilston (wine and cheese), The Snax (crackers and sweets), and The Gardenia (candle, plant, and chocolate). Along with the quality, many say the hampers are surprisingly affordable, with prices starting at just $60.
Despite praise for the presentation, some were let down by the packaging—saying the items simply came in a box, unless you pay an extra $15 for a proper basket. The Create Your Own Gift feature helps, though, letting you choose what goes inside, starting at $80.
Quick delivery and looks beautiful
“The best best best gift company is all I can say thank you so much. The gift pack with vino chockies and treats arrived today in Ashmore. I ordered it late last night from New Zealand was blown away how quickly they received it. It looks beautiful and they were so so happy. Thank you. Highly recommended this company, top notch.”

2. GC Gift Boxes & Hampers
Address: 8/4 Corporation Drive, Ashmore
Phone: +61 7 5535 2879
Business hours: Monday-Friday, 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM
Themes at GC Gift Boxes & Hampers are beer, cider and spirits, gourmet food and wine, and more. That includes two of their most popular picks—the Local Legends Craft Beer Box for $69.95 and the Cheese Is All You Need Gourmet for $210.
The beautiful wrappings and presentation impress not just clients but also their recipients on special occasions. Customers also appreciate GC’s reliable same-day delivery and flexibility with last-minute changes, like address or timing adjustments.
Their customization options are well-loved, too, allowing personal touches to the colors, products, and messaging.
However, packaging has fallen short sometimes—no basket, just chocolates wrapped in cellophane with stickers—which made one customer question the $100 price tag.
Still, it’s clear that many return for the consistently attentive service. And when tech hiccups like checkout errors or delayed confirmations pop up, the staff’s kind gesture of tossing in a few extra sweets for free leaves a good impression on the locals.
Special hampers and easy delivery process
“I have used GC Gift Boxes and Hampers on four different occasions and each time have been blown away by the effort and care that Kim put into the hampers I ordered. Kim has always gone above and beyond to help me make the hampers special and make the delivery process easy! All my friends and family have loved receiving such a beautiful gift. Would definitely recommend supporting this wonderful business!”
No stress and no hassle
“Unbelievable service! This is a true customer experience! The recipient of the birthday gift I was sending, had left before delivery. Once GC Hampers were aware, they provided updates to me and directly to the recipient – they even confirmed a new delivery date no charge and no guilt trip. No stress and no hassle. Was a delight even with the sudden change in plans. Note it also happens to be Valentine’s Day today – this did not hinder the attention to myself or my recipient for the craft beer hamper.”

3. Byron Bay Gifts
Address: 22/73 Centennial Cct
Phone: +61 2 7204 0633
Business hours: Monday-Friday, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM
At Byron Bay Gifts, you can shop by occasion—like baby showers, birthdays, anniversaries, and Christmas—or by content, such as vegan, coffee & biscuit, and champagne & sparkling. Prices typically range from $50 to $99 or $100 and above.
What most clients notice first in the hampers are the stylish packaging and high quality of the items inside. One even said that there’s a luxurious feeling when opening the box, while others are all for the fact that each product is locally made.
Byron Bay’s corporate hampers are also a hit, by the way—especially the staff and real estate options. Better yet, many online customers find their website easy to navigate, even when making bulk orders or adding custom notes.
On the downside, delivery hasn’t always been great for everyone. Despite opting for express service and being assured of a set delivery date, a handful of clients still experienced delays, which understandably caused frustration.
Delicious food and luxurious feeling
“I have ordered multiple hampers for many friends and Clients from Byron Bay Gifts. The response from them has been amazing!! The quality of the goodies inside, the delicious food, the luxurious feeling when they open the special box. They have been gifts so preciously received.”

4. Coast and Banks
Address: 806/43 Peerless Ave
Phone: +61 418 751 217
Business hours: Monday-Sunday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Exquisite and gorgeous are some of the words clients use to describe Coast and Banks’ wrapping. Add to that the unique gift items inside, from personalized wine glasses and ceramic coffee cups to delicious chocolates and white wines—all sourced locally.
Many of their gift boxes have been given to bridesmaids, best friends, and family. Thanks to the team’s attention to detail and quick, efficient Australia-wide delivery, they all turn out to be well-received—sometimes even displayed at home long after the occasion.
While most consider the $99 to $175 price range worth it, others are held back by the higher cost, noting that it’s a bit beyond what they’re willing to spend. It helps that the website is user-friendly, making the ordering process hassle-free.
Moreover, Coast and Banks’ Taste of the Coast Hamper, Coast and Luxe Indulgence Gift Box, Flavors in Fusion, and The Bar Cart Experience consistently impress. One was even reluctant to unbox them, saying it looked too elegant to touch.
Exceptional, personalized, and exquisite gift boxes
“I purchased personalised gift boxes for my mother and mother in-law. Belinda’s attention to detail was immaculate and the gift boxes she created were exceptional. Personalising them to suit the individual, and the products she included were the best on the Gold Coast. Thank you for the time you took to make the most exquisite gifts for my family, which they absolutely loved.”
- Michelle Cummings, Google Reviews
Gorgeous wrapping and ordering was super easy
“I purchased 5 of the calm and collected gift boxes for my bridesmaids for my wedding. They were blown away by the uniqueness of the gif products and the gorgeous wrapping. The ordering was super easy and they arrived quickly. The ceramic coffee cups were a hit. And the essential oils and diffuser make your house smell divine. Will definitely continue supporting local businesses through this company.”

5. Flowers and Gifts GC
Address: 152 Scarborough St
Phone: +61 400 623 723
Business hours:
- Monday-Friday, 6:00 AM to 5:00 PM
- Saturday – 6:30 AM to 11:00 AM
- Sunday – 6:30 AM to 9:30 AM
Like its name suggests, this store adds flowers to its gift hampers. Whether it be for a pamper treat, a new baby surprise, or a gourmet box, clients are always delighted by the fresh blooms and the warm, responsive service that comes with it.
What’s more is that, aside from the free delivery in the Gold Coast area, you can shop inside their store and see the items for yourself. There’s also curbside pickup, an easy way to grab your order without leaving the car—perfect for busy days or last-minute gifting.
With prices ranging from $89 to $199, most say the hampers are worth it for the fast delivery and quality. Still, some felt the cost was a bit steep, especially when the flowers didn’t always arrive fresh or well arranged.
On the bright side, no one has so far gone wrong with their Sunflower Garden, Suzie, Enlightenment, and Cassie flower bouquets. They even let you add personal notes or dedications, whether it’s for spouses and friends or a beloved pet who passed away.
Beautiful bouquet and delivered within two hours
“Julie organised a beautiful bouquet of flowers and had them delivered for me within two hours of taking my call. She wrote out a beautiful card, messaged me to let me know it had been done, and ensured that any requirements I have going forward will definitely be though Flowers & Gifts GC! Thanks again!”
