Q1 Resort & Spa is located just meters from the energy and excitement of Surfers Paradise.

This chic seaside resort provides unprecedented access to some 40 kilometers of surf beach coastline. Tempting, as it is, to admire the deluxe interior, even more alluring is the stunning Gold Coast itself. Holidaying in the tallest residential and hotel tower in the world, you’ll enjoy unspoiled panoramas of the beautiful blue ocean and surrounding hinterland.

Truly inspirational architecture is reflected in the world's tallest residential building. With its stunning glass encased structure, Q1 Resort & Spa Surfers Paradise Apartments Gold Coast is the most striking urban designed building ever to appear on the Gold Coast skyline. Magnificent beach location, panoramic views from the surf to the hinterland and beyond.

Q1’s expansive, crystalline structure melds spaces seamlessly over 80 perpetually iridescent levels of luxury, while the sleek and contemporary design of this lavish architectural creation provides state-of-the-art, styled opulence in this lively Queensland region.

Over 150 elite one, two and three-bedroom apartments deliver an elegant sense of liberty and comfort. And coupled with their smooth, cutting-edge sensibilities, serve to enhance the breathtaking natural scenery of the hinterland to the West, Pacific Ocean to the East and even the Sunshine Coast
to the North.

And at its peak – Australia’s only beachside observation deck where guests can experience the rare and spectacular 360° vistas of rainforest, surf and a shimmering sunset.

When you’re ready to come back down to earth, Q1 Resort & Spa offers two lagoon swimming pools, an indoor heated lap pool and Q1 Spa for timeless aquatic calm.

Between working on your tan and taking a dip to cool off, you can enjoy modern, fresh cuisine in the alfresco Poolside Beach Club for breakfast or lunch.

And when the mood strikes to hit the town, an abundance of great restaurants and bars boasting fine Australian cuisine awaits in the vibrant Surfers Paradise dining precinct, along with cosmopolitan cafés to suit the tastes of budding baristas.
