# Main Beach, *quietly so.*

Two acres of garden between you and the rest of the Gold Coast. The Pacific across the road, the river at the back gate, Tedder Avenue five minutes on foot.

## A boutique address *on the river side of Main Beach.*

Contessa sits on Serisier Avenue, a single block back from the sand on the river side of Main Beach. Pacific Ocean on one side, the river on the other.

## A walkable strip, *at the quiet end of the coast.*

Tedder Avenue at one end of the street. Surf and sand at the other.

## Main Beach, _quietly_ so.

The quiet end
of the Gold Coast.

Surfers Paradise is close enough for a night out. Far enough not to hear it.

The G:Link tram runs the full length of the coast from Florida Gardens, fifteen minutes on foot. Most guests do not bother with a car.

*Tedder Avenue* one way. *Surf and sand* the other.

### Groundwater 2026: a free Broadbeach festival, a quiet Main Beach base

### Winter on the Gold Coast from Main Beach

June through August is the Gold Coast's quiet season, and the one Contessa is built for. A large indoor heated pool, an indoor spa and sauna, dry winter light, whales offshore, and the largest events on the Coast calendar.

### Gold Coast 500 2026: a balcony that looks down on the track

The Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500 runs 23 to 25 October 2026. The southern hairpin of the street circuit sweeps past the end of our street – which means a wraparound balcony with a working view of race day.
