Overview
If you choose where to slumber while you're on holidays solely based on the amenities, then The Star Gold Coast has just given you a new reason to book in a night away. Levelling up your vacation with swims and cocktails on a sixth-floor pool club will do that — and that's exactly what's now on offer at the Goldie spot.
As first announced in 2021, The Star Gold Coast has launched two new additions: Isoletto Pool Club, which is where all those dips and drinks come in; and Isoletto Privé, an events space with a deck tailor-made for parties. Officially open from Wednesday, April 27, they're located within the resort, within its new $400 million, 53-storey hotel and apartment tower. To make the most of the pool club, though, you'll either need to be a resident or a hotel guest.
A coast holiday it is, then — depending on your budget, of course. The sky-high Isoletto Pool Club features a 12-metre-long pool that boasts views over to Broadbeach, daybeds scattered around the deck and wet lounges in the pool itself.
There's also a restaurant and lounge serving up sushi, oysters, prawn cocktails, fried snapper burgers, grilled chicken BLTs and gelato, plus cocktails such as the Giulietta (made with concoction with gin, Aperol, and Pavan grape and orange blossom liqueur) and the Green Cove (with white rum, orange bitters and mint). Craft beers are on the menu as well, and the wine list spans both local and international tipples — to drink either inside or outdoors by the water.
If you're gathering the gang, guests can opt for poolside packages designed for larger groups, too. Think: bottled champagne, cocktails, seasonal fruit platters and complimentary sunscreen.
Whichever you opt for, you'll be kicking back in a space designed by local architecture and interior design practice Plus Architecture, and that takes its cues from its Gold Coast surroundings. Colour-wise, that means neutral tones with pops of lemon and melon hues, and big tropical vibes.
If it's a party you're after — hosting one, not just feeling like you're having one while you're relaxing by the pool — then Isoletto Privé has that taken care of. It's a new event space for shindigs, events and weddings, and features a lawn, deck and terrace. Also included: views both out over the shoreline and over to the hinterland.
Isoletto Pool Club and Isoletto Privé events space are now open at The Star Gold Coast, 1 Casino Drive, Broadbeach. Isoletto Pool Club operates from 11am–5pm daily. For further information, head to The Star's website.
