We all know the disappointment of going home after holidaying at a luxury resort.

Think a stress-free holiday atmosphere – a carefree and relaxed way of life – qualities we all want to package up for our own enjoyment.

But imagine if your home is a place to rest with the birds in the verdant midst of a highly maintained botanical garden environment. The location provides breathtaking views – never to be built out - of the rolling greens of the Gold Coast’s top ranked golf course (Golf Australia Magazine January 2006).

The only intruders on this tranquillity are the graceful swans cruising the waterways or the swing of a golf club as enthusiasts take to the 96 tranquil hectares of the internationally renowned 18-hole Greg Norman designed Glades resort course.

This idyllic resort lifestyle is so sought after that today’s golf course communities have evolved from the earlier models and now only 30 per cent of residents actually play golf.

They come for the peace and quiet and facilities including the Glades Clubhouse with Boardwalk Bar & Grill for long lunches with friends and neighbours, the resort swimming pool for leisurely laps, the Balinese-inspired Day Spa with the latest in treatments to relax the mind, body and soul, mini gymnasium, tennis and beach volleyball courts.

This is where friendliness and community spirit are the norm, where friends and neighbours look out for each other and a welcoming smile or friendly wave lets you know you've arrived home.

It is a vibrant and dynamic lifestyle in the heart of everything the Gold Coast has to offer….It is on the doorstep of major infrastructure and services including the Robina Town Centre shopping destination, Robina Rail Station and the Pacific Motorway, Gold Coast Hospital – Robina campus with new emergency services facilities due to open, the new NRL Stadium where the Gold Coast Titans will play from 2008, the region's finest private schools and world famous Bond University.

You are only 10-15 minutes drive from the Coast’s world famous surfing beaches of Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach, Burleigh Heads as well as Gold Coast Airport . Drive an hour north and you are in the buzz of Brisbane ’s CBD. Or a leisurely drive south into picturesque Northern New South Wales puts you in the lifestyle hub of Byron Bay . The Gold Coast’s world heritage listed Hinterland with its country hospitality and emerging wine industry is even closer.

The Glades offers the sort of lifestyle and layout that says this is a world-class development.
