What is the easiest way of finding board on the Gold Coast and are there any requirements for me to do so?

Australian customs likes to see that you have an address on your incoming passenger form when you arrive, but this can just be for your first night of stay in Australia, and the address of the hostel or other place you are staying at. There are a number of ways to find board on the Gold Coast: Through classified sites like Gumtree, temporary accommodation websites and via hostels.
