From bars on the roof to private pontons: Inside Runaway Bay’s newest villas on the water

At the Gold Coast, renders often promise more than the end product delivers.

At Ocean Suites on Jennifer in Runaway Bay, the opposite is true.

The completed houses exceed the expectations and set a new standard for Broadwater Living.

Runaway Bay’s turnout as a prestige address

As the question spreads further than the paradise of Broadbeach and surfers, Runaway Bay is on the rise as one of the most desired enclaves of the Gold Coast.

Buyers are attracted to access to sailing, boutique cafés, quality schools and leaf parks – all framed by the sparkling waters of the Broadwater.

Ocean Suites captures this lifestyle with only seven boutique on the water.

Only three remain for sale after four successful early sales, and the research was strong prior to completion this summer.

According to realestate.com.au, the median house price of Runaway Bay has risen by 12.7% – the average of 4.3% in the capitals of Australia for the past 12 months.

Yet it remains more affordable than blue chip neighbors such as sovereign islands and Broadbeach.

Runaway Bay is a relaxed, lifestyle -oriented neighborhood that the locals and buyers love.
