The Mondrian.

Burleigh, Gold Coast

Just steps from Burleigh Beach, Mondrian Gold Coast gives RARA the kind of setting the work deserves: considered, sensory, coastal and alive.

This is not a conference centre with better branding. It is part of the design.

Between sessions, take coffee at Lito, sit by the pool, cross the road to the ocean, or find the corner of the hotel where the conversation changes.
