Directions

The Sovereign Islands in Australia’s Gold Coast are 6 exclusive residential islands in the middle of the northern part of the Broadwater.

The islands are linked to the Paradise Point by a bridge.

The exclusive community is home to many of the Gold Coast finest houses and some fabulous luxury motor boats and yachts!

Many different architectural styles but one common theme - accommodation  designed specifically for the Gold Coast lifestyle!
 
Sovereign Islands have no public amenities, shops or attractions, so it is purely a place to stay.

A limited number of the private homes are available for exclusive holiday lets or rentals.  

It’s a great place to base your holiday. Some of these luxury holiday homes even come complete with personal assistant and access to all the toys including the cruiser, jet skis and Mercedes!

Ephraim Island is another exclusive island community right next door in the Broadwater. Also linked to Paradise Point by bridge.

Ephraim Island is quite different with apartments, villas and penthouses.
