The attractions of the long sandy beaches, exquisite sunrises and mountain backdrop views, divine dinning, world class experiences and exclusive shops has brought many from far and wide to our popular Burleigh location. To cover all bases, we are now catering to those living more northern with our second facility in Ormeau located just 30 minutes from Brisbane CBD. If you are seeking a quick trip to visit our purple facility or perhaps you aren't too phased about missing out on the Southern beaches and can settle for a family holiday closer to the theme park attractions, discounted Harbour Town shopping and unlimited heavenly dinning options of the northern Gold Coast, Ormeau could be your new visiting location.

And last but of course NOT LEAST! A trip to the beach.
Most beaches on the coast now have beach mats as part of their set up - however the decide on a day-by-day basis as to whether they get put out. I believe this is guided by the "man power" they have available and the surf conditions. We have found calling ahead always helps and most are more than happy to accomodate.
- Tallebudgera Creek is out pick for a dip, with less waves and a short amount of sand to cross before reaching the water.
- Burleigh Heads is our next pick, beautiful views, a surf break and lots of surf watching to be done.
