Expect this year’s ANZAC Day, the 104th remembrance since the first ANZAC Day in 1916, to be different, but equally special, as the nation unites over the internet and by standing at our driveway or balcony to commemorate the brave Australian and New Zealand Army Corps who served, and sacrificed their lives, at Gallipoli in World War I.

While the parades and services we are used to attending will be no longer be carried out this year, the National Memorial Service at the Australian War Memorial will go ahead with TV and radio coverage to watch and listen to in the comfort of indoors or live on your device, and we invite you to join us in paying respects to this special day of remembrance

Join our essential guests and residents to commemorate here in Broadbeach on the Gold Coast, where we’re offering Queenslanders essential affordable short-term accommodation that’s fully furnished and complete with relaxing private balconies facing the beach and ocean.
