May 2020 Director’s Message
The past month has been full of challenges due to the extraordinary times we are living in. But challenges aside, one of the biggest things I’ve observed over the past several weeks is the tremendous sense of community amongst our homeowners. The extended GemLife family, including our employees, has risen to the challenge, lending a helping hand and supporting each other in more ways than I can count. It’s been truly heart-warming to witness the day-to-day acts of kindness being carried out across all our resorts.
GemLife is lucky to have residents with all kinds of talents and skills and this month members of our extended GemLife family share some tips, pointers and advice on some great things to do while we’re all being encouraged to stay at home. From gardening tips to at-home yoga poses, thank you to all our residents who shared!
One of our biggest initiatives in April was the successful launch of GemLife Eats, a service that delivers free healthy and delicious meals to residents with the aim of reducing trips to the supermarket and aid in social distancing. The feedback from our Bribie, Maroochy Quays, Highfields and Woodend residents has been tremendous and the team is looking forward to delivering more great meals in May.
Construction at all our sites has been powering ahead, with excellent progress across the board.
On the Sunshine Coast, GemLife Pacific Paradise is coming along quickly with construction of homes having begun. Likewise, there was good progress in Stage Two at GemLife Maroochy Quays. This stage offers buyers something very different from other stages with a combination of double-storey, split-level and single-level homes.
Stage Four at GemLife Bribie Island is well underway with the completion of 11 new display homes along with a one-of-a-kind luxe new waterfront villa, The Gem, GemLife’s largest display home to date.
Construction is well underway in Woodend, with Stage Two featuring three new home designs as well as nine new luxe sites. Homes are expected to be completed from June through to the end of the year. Civil works are also progressing well at Stage Three of the resort.
We also had some exciting news about our much-anticipated GemLife Lennox Head development, with the necessary certification being received, allowing us to submit plans for Development Approval and take the project to the next stage. Stay tuned for updates!
From the GemLife family to yours, stay well, take care and happy International Day of Families and Mother’s Day.
