Sanctuary Cove, Queensland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sanctuary Cove is a gated community, in the suburb of Hope Island in the Gold Coast area of Queensland, Australia. It was the first of such developments in Australia and is notable for its impact in planning legislation in Queensland which had to be altered to allow it to proceed, due to the privatisation of such large areas of urban land.
Sanctuary Cove provides a completely self-contained residential environment with its own shopping centre and entertainment facilities, with the addition of many of the facilities of a holiday resort, such as boating marinas and golf courses. Members of the public are only allowed to enter by prior arrangement with the management.
Sanctuary Cove continues to grow as remaining land is developed. The latest parcel released in early 2007 is known as "Tristania"
