Main Beach · Gold Coast
The quiet end
of the Gold Coast.
Two waters,
one address.
Beach mornings, river-and-marina afternoons. The cosmopolitan strip of Tedder Avenue
at one end of the street, surf and sand at the other.
Contessa sits at 1
Serisier Avenue, on the river side of Main Beach. Pacific Ocean across the road, the
river at the back gate.
Two waters, one address
Beach mornings,
river afternoons.
Cross the road for the Pacific. Walk through the back gate for the river. Main Beach is patrolled in season, leafy in shoulder months, quieter than the Cavill Avenue stretch even at the height of summer; the deck above the marina is the quietest spot in the building.
Around Main Beach
Tedder Avenue one way.
Surfers the other.
Getting here
Easy to reach,
easy to get around.
Half an hour from the airport.
Fifteen minutes on foot to the tram.
Gold Coast Airport is around 22 km, 30 minutes by car. Brisbane Airport is 82 km,
around 75 minutes, easier in the long run for international arrivals.
The
G:Link light rail at Florida Gardens is a fifteen-minute walk on the way home and
runs the length of the coast through Surfers, Broadbeach and beyond. Most guests do
not bother with a car at all.
