You will soon discover that South Stradbroke Island Resort is a unique destination. It's perfect for a real island holiday, yet is conveniently situated close to Surfers Paradise and the fabulous Gold Coast, Australia's premier tourism destination.

So close in fact, to combine the two destinations gives you the perfect choice - the relaxation and tranquillity of an island holiday, with the opportunity to still visit all the regional attractions. Many of the visitors to the island actually come to get away from the stresses and strains of a typical Gold Coast vacation.  There's no theme parks here.  Instead, we offer a different type of Paradise.

South Stradbroke is one of Australia's rare and unique sand islands. Undeveloped, and with an unspoilt beauty, it boasts a vigorous diversity of flora and fauna, some of which, like the Golden Wallaby (pictured below) are found nowhere else in the world.
