or a city that has achieved a global reputation as a brilliant tourist destination, Gold Coast
sure has come a long way in just six decades. It was in 1959 that we were officially named City of Gold Coast so this is our Diamond Jubilee year. And I reckon we have a lot to celebrate. Our magnificent beaches, World Surfing Reserves and fabulous hinterland rainforest attract visitors from all around the world. But we offer so much more these days to both residents and visitors. Our public open spaces like the magnificent Broadwater Parklands are a real pleasure to enjoy
Today, Gold Coast has three university campuses, 200 accredited education providers and a thriving Health & Knowledge Precinct attracting the best and brightest minds to live here, expanding our new jobs growth potential. The new Gold Coast University Hospital and a rapidly growing array of specialist medical services and health providers all offer us a safer and better way of life. We have a lot to be proud of and a lot to be grateful for. We are a city on the move. We are a city that’s Way Ahead – and we’re going to stay that way. A
and they allow us to live an active and healthy lifestyle that is second to none. Our cultural life has also come alive with festivals like Blues on Broadbeach, Bleach*, Cooly Rocks On and many others. The Home Of The Arts offers a new outdoor stage catering for audiences of up to 5,000 with construction now well underway on our new City Gallery that will be the largest regional gallery in the nation.

LADY ELLIOT ISLAND Home of the Manta Ray
LADY ELLIOT IS A CORAL CAY LOCATED ON THE SOUTHERN TIP OF AUSTRALIA’S ICONIC GREAT BARRIER REEF, 80KMS NORTH-EAST OF BUNDABERG, NESTLED BETWEEN FRASER ISLAND AND LADY MUSGRAVE ISLAND.
T
he Island is situated within a highly protected ’Green Zone’ of the Marine National Park and is a sanctuary for over 1,200 species of marine life. Lady Elliot Island is regarded as one of the best snorkelling and diving locations on the Great Barrier Reef and is renowned for its healthy coral reef and abundance of turtles, manta rays, reef sharks and the entire cast of Finding Nemo. Guests can snorkel straight off the beach and they don’t have to worry about stingers. There is so much to discover on Lady Elliot Island and there are plenty of complimentary activities on offer to help guests learn more about the Island and it’s unique history, flora, fauna and incredible marine life. Lady Elliot Island is one of the most significant seabird breeding sites on the Great Barrier Reef and large numbers of seabirds frequent the island between October and April each year. Green and Loggerhead turtles nest on Lady Elliot Island from November to March and hatchlings emerge between February and April. The peak Manta Ray season is May to August and Humpback whales migrate past the island from June to October. The unpretentious 43 room Eco Resort on Lady Elliot Island strives to provide guests with a genuine eco-tourism experience. Lady Elliot Island Eco Resort offers a range of comfortable accommodation options, with each unit, tent and cabin designed to minimise impact on the Island while enriching guest’s experience of the seasonal wildlife. The main goal is to provide guests with life changing moments and world class experiences through natural encounters both above and below the water.
The PADI Dive Shop offers courses to cater to all levels of experience and a full range of scuba equipment is available for hire. Operating an island resort 80km out to sea presents a multitude of challenges on a daily basis. Managing Director Peter Gash and his passionate team have introduced a range of innovative and sustainable environmental practices to ensure that the Island and its surrounding reef area remain in pristine condition. The island generates its own power, desalinates seawater for drinking purposes, maintains a wastewater treatment plant and recycles the majority of its rubbish. The Resort also has a very impressive solar array and the goal is to run the resort on 100% renewable energy by 2020. You can enjoy a day-trip or stay for a few days to explore this incredible marine eco-system. Scenic flights to Lady Elliot Island depart daily from the Gold Coast, Brisbane (Redcliffe), Hervey Bay/Fraser Coast or Bundaberg.

ARDY MAULANA TESTIMONIAL
“Luke & Isabel’s Sales Team are amazing, especially Ardy. I had dealings with this agency via Ardy for over 6 months going back and forth due to my changing circumstances putting me into different market segments on the Gold Coast and at no time did it phase Ardy to find something different and at every opportunity he showed me apartments for investment in every segment. Their service is amazing, professional and more than 110% was given to me from Crown! I ended up purchasing through them and have recommended Crown to anyone I think is looking to buy on the Gold Coast or in Brisbane. Thanks again for an experience in real estate that is foreign to most....my interactions with agents normally isn’t positive, but at Crown Realty International it won’t just be positive...it ill be truly amazing! “
