Rental Property & Holiday Accommodation

Brisbane City

Brisbane, Australia, is a relaxed and friendly sub-tropical city with a great lifestyle. Brisbane is a river city making full use of its enviable environment. The Brisbane River winds gently through the city and serves as a delightful way to explore the area. And there is so much to explore. A day in Brisbane might include international standard shopping in the Queen Street Mall; a swim, rainforest walk and lunch at South Bank Parklands; feeding dolphins at Tangalooma, then in the evening dine in world class restaurants and finish with a late night river cruise. But there's more! Take some time to discover the Botanical Gardens, take an enchanting stroll through Fortitude Valley and Chinatown and a cruise out to the Bay Islands. With so much to do you may need to stay a while longer!

Brisbane has shucked its reputation as a backwater and emerged as one of the country's most progressive centres. It has several interesting districts, a good street cafe scene, a great riverside park, a busy cultural calendar and a thriving nightlife.

Brisbane, the capital city of Queensland, is midway up the east coast of Australia - 27.5oS, 153oE. With the Gold Coast to the south and the Sunshine Coast to the north, domestic and international airports, Brisbane is an ideal headquarters for an Australian holiday. Brisbane, indeed all Queensland, operates on Eastern Standard Time which is 10 hours ahead of GMT all year round - Summertime or Daylight Saving is not practiced in Queensland.

Residents and visitors to Brisbane enjoy a wide range of landscapes and lifestyles. The inner-city, metropolitan Brisbane is surrounded by leafy, sometimes very hilly, suburbs. Further out in the suburbs, the traditional Australian house on a large block or even acreage dominates.

The fabulous beaches and the more upmarket accommodation and services available from the larger population centres in the Illawarra offer a mixture of comfort and typical Australian summer pursuits to make your visit a memorable one. Moreton Bay and its islands provide water sports, sailing and sea-side suburbs. The Pacific Highway leads south to the Gold Coast and its well-known surf beaches. North is the seaside town of Redcliffe, the rainforest and picturesque countryside of Pine Rivers, Caboolture and the Glasshouse Mountains. Bribie Island offers the first surf beach to the north. The Sunshine Coast towns and hinterland are popular holiday spots. Travelling west of Brisbane, past Ipswich, you soon climb the Great Dividing Range to Toowoomba and the rich plains of the Darling Downs.

Known locally as Bris Vegas, the city is renowned for its sun and the brash, glitzy hordes that follow it, but it's also a thriving arts capital, with dozens of theatres, cinemas, concert halls, galleries and museums. A climate this good and culture too? It must be paradise.

The Brisbane City Council encourages Brisbane residents and visitors to enjoy all our city has to offer. The Council supports an active and healthy lifestyle for all residents with recreation and learning programs, a range of facilities, regular events and festivals.

As Queensland's capital, Brisbane has its very own savvy downtown precinct, which serves as a destination in its own right or as the perfect hub for exploring spectacular Moreton Bay, beaches, or many regional hinterland attractions located inside a leisurely 60 minute drive. Brisbane's active yet relaxed way of life fits perfectly with the plethora of things to see and do in and around the city.

There's simply no better place in Queensland to indulge in some serious retail therapy. Start in the Queen Street Mall - almost a kilometre of shoppers' paradise. Then stroll along to the City's chic shopping strips and arcades before heading to The Valley where you'll find the edgiest young designs around. South Bank's new Arbour on Grey should be next on your shopping list. Downtown's outdoor markets are a weekend pleasure not to be missed. If you can't find what you're shopping for in downtown Brisbane, it simply doesn't exist!

You'll need at least a month to check out all of downtown's nightlife options, from bars and pubs to nightclubs and live music venues. The city isn't known as 'Brisvegas' for nothing!

And while there's plenty to keep you going in downtown Brisbane, you should also spread your wings a little. Within 60 minutes, so much is so close: from beaches and islands, to hinterland and country, to parks and wildlife just to name a few.
