Gold Coast off the plan apartments

Burgeoning Gold Coast developer Polycell is fast becoming one of the busiest developers in Broadbeach.

Polycell is nearing a sellout of <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-rochester-broadbeach-143-surf-parade-broadbeach">The Rochester</a>, their debut apartment development on the Gold Coast, which they are currently constructing through their newly established construction arm. Just last month, the company <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/news/qld/first-look-polycell-approved-for-next-broadbeach-apartment-development">secured approval</a> for its second project at <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/167-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach">167 Old Burleigh Road</a>.

Now they've submitted plans for what will be their third project, having successfully completed the buyout of the apartment owners at the <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/sandpiper-broadbeach-155-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach">12-level Sandpiper building</a>, also on Old Burleigh Road.

It's the third time they've called on BDA to handle the designs, after the local architecture firm put the plans together for The Rochester and their other approved project.

They said in the design statement the project presents an exciting opportunity to create a landmark residential tower within the vibrant, high-density Broadbeach precinct.

"The proposed fifty two storey residential apartment tower will feature a timeless façade inspired by the surrounding coastal context, establishing it as a unique sculptural addition to the Broadbeach skyline," BDA noted.

"Carefully designed to respect the character of Broadbeach’s high-density precinct, the project addresses key opportunities presented by the site.&nbsp;The design highlights exceptional architecture, thoughtfully designed public edges, boutique communal amenities, and lush subtropical landscaping, making it a valuable and sustainable addition to the Broadbeach area."

<img alt="Polycell" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="65075f78-0815-44ec-a2bc-cc3910ba4ed7" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-05-02%20at%2010.05.47%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=y9KN87EyiDZQgwFqxVZW.z64bviqXB.g" />

They said the spacious apartments&nbsp;are designed to accommodate a range of varying demographics, with an emphasis on maximising natural ventilation and light.

Of the 216 apartments, 146 (or 67 per cent) will be two-bedroom. The plans incorporate 65 three-bedroom apartments, three four-bedroom apartments, and two five-bedroom, full-floor sub-penthouses, each spanning 736 sqm.

The lower portion of the tower will comprise just six apartments per floor, while&nbsp;the upper levels offers a selection of larger apartments.

<img alt="Sandpiper" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="87ca0e97-e014-4224-9a41-80739744b838" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-05-02%20at%209.58.49%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=N.PPsXAs7sa..3Qrjyg0OjcwcIA_ldzD" />

Much like The Rochester, Polycell has proven themselves to be committed to a high-level of resident amenity, and Sandpiper will be no different.

There will be three levels of dedicated facilities, starting from the&nbsp;podium level which will feature a lap pool with floating day beds, a communal kitchen, dining and lounge area, a gym with a yoga room, a games room with a golf simulator, and a wellness area with a spa, hot and cold pluinges and a sauna and steam room.

The 33rd and 34th level of the building will be home to the residents club that will have similar amenity to the podium level, but also meeting rooms, a two-level club lounge with a spiral staricase, a wine room and ajdoining private dining areas, a library, and a cinema.

For years, Michelle and Wade had cruised the Broadwater, often docking at the Main Beach Yacht Club and dreaming of a life closer to what they call their second home.

What started as a holiday habit quickly turned into something more permanent when they discovered <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/drew-group">Drew Group</a>’s dual-tower apartment development, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/lagoon-main-beach-11-23-cronin-avenue-main-beach">Lagoon</a>, in <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/main-beach-qld-4217">Main Beach</a>.

For Michelle and Wade, long-time Broadbeach locals and passionate boating enthusiasts, the decision to downsize wasn’t made overnight. But when the opportunity arose to call Lagoon home, it felt like everything fell perfectly into place.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=221592]

The couple recently secured a three-bedroom plus multipurpose room residence in the Sunrise Tower of Lagoon,&nbsp;with panoramic views and an enviable connection to the Broadwater lifestyle they adore.

“We live on our boat just as much as we live at home,” Michelle said.

“We were spending holidays at the yacht club just around the corner. It was during one of those stays we first came across Lagoon—started looking at the floorplans and just thought, ‘We can really do this.’”

`The couple live in a five-bedroom, two-level home in Broadbeach Waters, but Michelle was ready for a change. She couldn’t convince Wade when they first looked at Lagoon, but they came back a year later when the project began rising from the ground and they could see extensive progress in construction.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=204524]

“Once we saw it in real life, it all just clicked”, Michelle recalled.

For the couple, Main Beach and Lagoon offers everything they need.

“We feel like we’re not losing anything by downsizing, in both the space offered at Lagoon as well as the facilities like a lagoon style swimming pool and a top-tier gym.”

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=221590]

Their new home at Lagoon offers a low-maintenance, lock-and-leave lifestyle that supports both relaxation and activity. “When we’re home, I want to be on the boat, and not mowing lawns,” Wade said. “Lagoon gives us that freedom.”

They liked the peace and quiet of Main Beach compared to neighbouring suburbs, but also loved the fact it still has significant waterside amenities on The Spit and an increasingly thriving hospitality and retail precinct on Tedder Avenue and at Marina Mirage.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=284864]

One of the main drivers in purchasing off the plan was what friends and locals said about those behind the project.

“Everyone knows Hutchies as a builder,” Michelle said. “Drew Group was a new name to us, but everyone we’ve spoken to in the local community has nothing but praise for Jon Drew. Friends who know people in the industry spoke very highly of him and we value their opinion.”

Hutchinson Builders is approaching topping out of the two towers. Drew Group expects Lagoon residents to move in over the summer.

Michelle and Wade took part in Urban's Buyer Q&amp;A series which focuses on the driving factors behind buying off the plan property in Australia

From Broadbeach to Main Beach: Why local downsizers are making the move to Drew Group’s Lagoon Main Beach

The small Gold Coast suburb of <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/palm-beach-qld-4221">Palm Beach</a> has been one of Australia’s most in-demand locations for new apartments since 2020. Much of the suburb’s development has taken place— and continues to take place—along the Gold Coast Highway and just off the beachfront, where apartments are now achieving prices that would have seemed unthinkable just five years ago.

When Sydney-based developer <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/abadeen-group">Abadeen</a>&nbsp;decided to introduce its luxury brand to the Gold Coast, it took a different approach. The group secured an amalgamated site on Mawarra Street, toward the northern end of Palm Beach and on the western side of the Gold Coast Highway. While not directly on the sand, the site is just 400 metres from the beach, allowing Abadeen to offer a broader mix of apartment configurations and price points—something rarely seen in a market where new apartments often start from $3 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=336441]

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/villea-palm-beach">Villea</a>, Abadeen’s debut Gold Coast project, comprises just 69 two and three-bedroom apartments, priced from $995,000 to $2,715,000. Residents will enjoy the laid-back Palm Beach lifestyle—without the beachfront premium.

Now well advanced in construction and on track for completion before Christmas, Villea is located less than 400 metres from Palm Beach’s northern sands. Its position also places residents just a 10-minute walk from Tallebudgera Creek, the natural waterway dividing Palm Beach from Burleigh Heads.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=336449]

Affectionately known by locals as Tally Creek, this lifeguard-patrolled inlet is one of the Gold Coast’s most beloved family-friendly beaches. The calm, bay-like waters are ideal for swimming and paddleboarding, and there’s even a section of the sand designated as an off-leash dog area.

Just 600 metres from Villea is Canvas Palm Beach, one of the Gold Coast’s most popular cafés. Doubling as a boutique homewares store, Canvas serves breakfast, lunch, and drinks until 3pm daily.

While Palm Beach’s wider lifestyle offerings are a major drawcard, Abadeen has also prioritised on-site convenience. Villea will feature a ground-floor retail precinct, including a café and several yet-to-be-announced boutique retail tenancies, delivering everyday amenity right at residents’ doorstep.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=336445]

Connectivity will soon be another key advantage. The proposed Nineteenth Avenue light rail stop—part of the $4.4 billion G:Link extension—will be located just 650 metres from Villea’s entrance. Once complete, it will provide direct links south to Coolangatta and north through Broadbeach and Surfers Paradise, all the way to Helensvale.

Families are also showing strong interest in the project, thanks in part to Villea’s close proximity to Palm Beach State School, located just 300 metres away, as well as the large floorplans that range in size up to 163 sqm.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=336442]

Villea will also feature several resident-only facilities, from a resort-style swimming pool to a fully-equipped gym.

Builder Emicon is soon to top out the eight-level structure which was designed by local architecture firm BDA.

Abadeen finds untapped Palm Beach pocket for debut Gold Coast apartment development, Villea

A few days after confirming their $70 million purchase of an unrepeatable development site in Miami, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/monaco-property-group">Monaco Property Group</a> has submitted plans for their luxury tower in Miami.

They're sticking with the name Nalu, which is the name of the current holiday block that was developed as Nobby's Outlook in the 1970s. It currently&nbsp;comprises four connected two-level buildings with 46 two and three-bedroom apartments, most recently operated as long-term rentals.&nbsp;

Monaco Property Group, directed by Jonathan Grasso and businessman Jay McPhee, has had <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/koichi-takada-architects">Koichi Takada Architects</a>&nbsp;work with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/bda-architecture">BDA Architecture</a>&nbsp;to create 46 apartments across a striking curved tower at 122 Marine Parade.

The two architecture firms shared in their design statement submitted to the Gold Coast City Council that Nalu "embraces the Miami context of lush landscape, open architecture, beachfront living and active lifestyle."

<img alt="Nalu, Miami" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="50b74b21-c3ea-42c3-ba65-6f1b7fd3c56e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Nalu%20perspective.png?VersionId=n8P7qlmWIDksyPI5W1nu3dzH8gghR8g5" />

They said the building has&nbsp;been positioned to open out to the ocean, but also blend with the mountain behind.

The mostly four-level building, with a partial fifth level for private rooftop terraces in the more premium apartments, has been designed in a U-shape so the communal spaces face the ocean. Residents will have access to a central resort-style pool, lounge,&nbsp;gym, yoga area, hammam, steam rooms, and hot and cold plunge pools.

<img alt="Nalu" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="385f9b8c-758b-4e01-b559-d6ed4a8c3862" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-04-28%20at%203.37.34%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=PPq9s1gOeBH_h4g6mwMWEkIzt1cv6FSP" />

The 46 two, three, four and five-bedroom apartments have been designed to maximise views, ventilation, and solar protections, while also protecting the privacy of the residents.&nbsp;Each apartment features expansive wrap-around balconies that serve as outdoor living areas.

One basement level will provide parking for 139 residential vehicles and eight visitor vehicles, which will access Nalu from porte-cochère entrance on Fraser Avenue.

<img alt="Nalu" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="dea65c52-f139-43e3-b569-f7ed6c5eadcc" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-04-28%20at%203.37.29%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=.PiTs6LGsPeYvXNOcMfx09t3pPJUA.ad" />

On the site acquisition, Grasso said the site was one of the&nbsp;best beachfront development sites on the eastern seaboard of Australia.

“The site is not only one of the largest beachfront development sites on the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/gold-coast-qld" target="">Gold Coast</a>, but its position overlooking&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/buildings/the-beachfront-buddina-84-85-pacific-boulevard-buddina-qld-4575" target="">the beachfront</a>&nbsp;and close proximity to the heart of Nobby Beach provides a truly unique opportunity for our team to create an incredible residential development that will be a legacy for years to come.”

Approaching a sell-out of its debut Gold Coast apartment development The Rochester, developer Polycell has its eyes firmly set on its next project.

They've secured approval for a 59-level tower which will be a redevelopment of the&nbsp;the landmark Voyager Resort&nbsp;at <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/167-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach">167 Old Burleigh Road</a>. Polycell acquired the timeshare building, and its valuable 2,076 sqm corner block that also fronts Elizabeth Avenue, for nearly $45 million in 2022.

They had Gold Coast firm <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/bda-architecture">BDA Architecture</a>&nbsp;design the tower which will feature&nbsp;glazed façades and coastal-inspired curves to reflect the surrounding Gold Coast landscape.

One of the standout features of the approved design is its emphasis on preserving the site’s existing natural elements, particularly the iconic Norfolk pines lining the street front.&nbsp;

<img alt="First look exclusive: Polycell set sights on new Broadbeach apartment development" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/f_auto,c_limit,w_1440,q_auto/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/field/image/Screenshot%202024-11-25%20at%203.01.52%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=4YWlAMLRDSdyWaSlcEH0907f3FGkDH5v" />

BDA Architecture described the design as “coastal tactility infused with a sub-tropical vernacular,” echoing the organic textures of the local landscape.

The podium will reflect a layered material palette and gently undulating forms that complement the surrounding urban and natural environments.

The development will house 130 apartments, ranging from two to five bedrooms. The approved mix includes 32 two-bedroom, 79 three-bedroom, 15 four-bedroom, and four five-bedroom apartments.&nbsp;

The four sub-penthouses and the sprawling two-level penthouse will feature a private cinema, a state-of-the-art gym with plunge pools, and a 14-metre lap pool.

Each level will be home to no more than three residences, ensuring privacy and exclusivity.&nbsp;

<img alt="First look exclusive: Polycell set sights on new Broadbeach apartment development" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,dpr_2.0,q_auto:good/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/3.png?VersionId=LypE2LoIU.Bp5kZCqi0BGdK_ME3CVAPI" />

The development will also feature extensive resort-style amenities across both the podium and upper levels. These include two swimming pools on the podium, daybeds, barbecues, a yoga and Peloton room, sauna and spa facilities, a games room, and a suite of wellness areas.

On levels 38 and 39, residents will enjoy a members-only ‘Club Lounge,’ complete with a zen lounge, tea bar, library, cinema, personal training gym, wine storage, private dining rooms, and more.

The new project is similar in density to <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-rochester-broadbeach-143-surf-parade-broadbeach">The Rochester</a>, which is nearly sold out of its 182 apartments on Surf Parade.&nbsp;

Monaco Property Group has acquired the Miami holiday destination Nalu for $70 million in one of the biggest residential deals on the Gold Coast in 2025.

The acquisition by Monaco Property Group, a Gold Coast company associated with seasoned developer Jonathan Grasso and Australian businessman Jay McPhee, positions the group to create a landmark beachfront project on a site that has been a popular drawcard for locals and holidaymakers for decades.

Formerly known as Nobby’s Outlook and originally developed in the early 1970s,&nbsp;Nalu comprises 46 two and three-bedroom apartments that are currently offered as long-term rentals.

It consists of four connected two-level buildings in a square configuration that includes a central recreation area with two swimming pools, and underwent a major refurbishment in 2019 after which it was renamed Nalu – a Hawaiian word that translates to ‘wave’.

The property benefits from an idyllic location fronting Thorn Park and Miami North Beach while offering 80 metres of uninterrupted ocean frontage and a central location which is just a short stroll from the popular Nobby Beach retail and dining precinct.

Monaco Property Group is leveraging its extensive development expertise to reimagine the expansive 7,238 sqm site, with the company currently laying plans for an ultra-luxury new residential development that takes advantage of its unique location in one of the most sought-after coastal enclaves on the Gold Coast.

Among the latest high-profile developments undertaken by Monaco Property Group is the $114 million award-winning Capri Villas, a collection of 48 architecturally designed villas at Isle of&nbsp;Capri on the central Gold Coast, which are due for completion in Q3 of this year.

“We’re extremely excited to have secured Nalu, one the best beachfront development sites on the eastern seaboard of Australia,” Grasso said.

“The site is not only one of the largest beachfront development sites on the Gold Coast, but its position overlooking the beachfront and close proximity to the heart of Nobby Beach provides a truly unique opportunity for our team to create an incredible residential development that will be a legacy for years to come.”

Nalu was secured by Monaco Property Group through an off-market deal in which the company dealt directly with the vendor. Monaco Property Group plans to lodge a development application for the site with the Gold Coast City Council.

“We are very excited to be working up plans for a truly world class project on such a unique site with an incredible 80 metres of beach frontage, which is certainly a rarity on the eastern seaboard of Australia,” Grasso added.

“It’s a property that locals know well, which is why we have decided to retain the name Nalu as it reflects the vision we have for this property. It’s very rare to have a site bound by two natural assets, being the pristine beach frontage and the lush elevation of Nobbys Hill and Lions Head Park. In line with our founding philosophy, our plans for Nalu will be defined by a commitment to quality, legacy, incredible landscape, world-class amenity and wellness, and an architectural statement of excellence.”

Located at 122-130 Marine Parade, Nalu backs onto Nobbys Hill and the untouched natural beauty of Lions Head Park to the west, while offering ocean views to the Miami North beachfront and south to Coolangatta and Rainbow Bay.

Monaco Property Group pays $70m for Miami site, plots luxury apartment development

Sydney-based P&amp;N Sleiman Group is the latest developer to descend on the booming Sunset Boulevard riverfront in Surfers Paradise.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/builders/pn-sleiman-group">P&amp;N Sleiman Group</a>, who was recently approved for a trio of towers in Burwood in Sydney's west, has filed for a 29-level tower at 52 Sunset Boulevard, one of four new towers to be submitted on the street in the last 12 months.

They're proposing 62 apartments, above four levels of basement parking.

<img alt="52 Sunset Boulevarde pool" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="16e27978-c828-46f1-bed5-aaa554c23ed3" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/52%20Sunset%20Boulevarde%20pool.png?VersionId=HnIMUQbncxNaSzDKB1hZ8_eWlWsVjrmS" />

The apartment mix features two, three, and four-bedroom configurations, as well as two double-level penthouses, each boasting private rooftop terraces with plunge pools.

There will be a gym, lounge, barbecue area, and infinity-edge pool on the third level for residents.

DBI designed the tower with a&nbsp;recessed central core and soft material palette, which they say "creates a building that is as elegant as it is bold." They said it would have a "refined presence on a street that’s quickly becoming a showcase for architectural ambition."

Sunset Boulevard has been in vogue since Roy Skaf's Macquarie York filed, and secured approval, for Sunset Residences, next door to the new plans at 50 Sunset Boulevard. Sunset Residences will have 43 apartments across a 17-level tower.

Another Sydney-based developer, YHY Group, filed plans a few doors down for a 33-level tower with 74 apartments, one being the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/news/qld/first-look-the-gold-coasts-largest-penthouse-pitched-for-new-surfers-paradise-tower">Gold Coast's largest ever penthouse</a>.

“Every development we take on is selected with intention — where location, design, and quality lead the way. Our ambition is that anyone who buys a MAYD-built product can genuinely feel the care, craftsmanship and commitment we bring to every detail.”

MAYD kicks off construction of ultra-luxury ONE Burleigh apartment development in Burleigh Heads

Following the strong sales success of the first tower, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/morris-property-group">Morris Property Group</a>&nbsp;has now released the apartments in the second tower of its new Broadbeach development, Crest Broadbeach.

The second tower introduces a fresh collection of two and three-bedroom apartments, which have already generated strong interest. Prices start from just under $1.2 million.

The first tower, which launched just over 12 months ago, is now more than 75 per cent sold.

Morris' in-house construction team is delivering both towers simultaneously. Construction is well underway, with the tower crane already installed on-site and excavation nearing completion on the fifth basement level. Both towers are scheduled for completion by mid-2027.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/crest-broadbeach-13-armrick-avenue-broadbeach">Crest</a> is ideally positioned on the highly sought-after Armrick Avenue, a tightly held street that has seen surprisingly little apartment development despite the recent boom across Broadbeach. No developer has successfully delivered a high-rise on this exclusive street—until now.

Armrick Avenue offers two major advantages to both investors and owner-occupiers due to its proximity to Broadbeach Park, one of the suburb’s most cherished green spaces.

The park, across the road is home to the iconic Broadbeach Bowls Club, a community institution since the mid-1950s, and the long-standing Broadbeach Surf Life Saving Club, giving Crest residents doorstep amenity at two of Broadbeach's most popular social venues.

The proximity to the park also means Crest residents will enjoy protected, uninterrupted southern views, with the government-owned land of the park never to be built upon.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112024 project_image_fid=343113]

In addition to the prime location and surrounding amenity, Crest will also offer residents an impressive suite of on-site facilities. These include a fully equipped gym, a resort-style pool, and a barbecue and alfresco entertaining area.

According to data from MatterFact, Urban.com.au’s data partner, Crest has appealed to both investors and owner-occupiers alike. While the majority of enquiries have come from Queenslanders, interstate interest has remained consistently strong. In fact, enquiries from New South Wales have made up between 20 to 30 per cent of total enquiries since the beginning of 2024.

Crest marks Morris Property Group’s ninth apartment development in Broadbeach since entering the market in 2006 with their flagship project, Verve.

They recently completed their eighth project, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/buildings/malo-broadbeach-8-jubilee-avenue-broadbeach-qld-4218">Malo Broadbeach</a>, nearby on Jubilee Avenue. Construction is also underway on their tenth Broadbeach project, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/maison-broadbeach-22-chelsea-avenue-broadbeach">Maison Broadbeach</a>, located just across Broadbeach Park on Chelsea Avenue.
