A tribute to architectural excellence and refined living, Marina Residences is not just a place to live – it’s a bold statement of luxury and comfort.
Designed by internationally acclaimed architect Bureau Proberts and developed by Maidment Group, this iconic project blends modern elegance with a timeless appeal to create a luxury living experience that is yet to be seen in North Queensland.
Residents will enjoy an unrivalled lifestyle with access to resort-style amenities, including a gym, a private meeting room, a private dining room, and a rooftop pool and sundeck, offering uninterrupted views across the waterfront and east to Magnetic Island.
“Marina Residences is destined to become a landmark project that redefines luxury living in North Queensland,” said Mr Maidment.
