Published position in the index

The Star Gold Coast is listed at 1 Casino Drive, Broadbeach QLD 4218, with Dorsett Gold Coast on site at 5 The Darling Avenue. The address is marked medium confidence in the roster because the precinct uses more than one on-site hotel address.

The operator note is time-sensitive. The Star Entertainment Group owns and operates The Star Gold Coast and owns Broadbeach Island on which the property is located. The casino licence is recorded as suspended, with suspension deferred, since 9 December 2022. A Special Manager was appointed, and the Queensland Government on 25 September 2025 extended the Special Manager to 30 September 2026. The roster notes that this date has passed and no later fetched decision was found.

The profile should be read with the method and weights, because missing values are not estimated. For a wider comparison, use the 30-parameter table or the scores by group. Other Queensland profiles include The Star Brisbane, Reef Hotel Casino and The Ville.

Hotel and leisure parameters

The roster lists four accommodation components for the precinct. The Star Grand is recorded with 592 rooms, by secondary source, with a note that third-party listings say 596. The Darling is described as an all-suite hotel, but the roster treats its suite count as unverified because sources conflict. Dorsett Gold Coast is recorded with 313 rooms from the Dorsett site, high confidence, and is described as part of The Star Gold Coast precinct with a 2-minute walk via internal access. The Star Residences, Epsilon tower, is recorded by secondary source with 210 hotel rooms and 457 residential apartments.

Room categories for the precinct are not published in the roster. Fixed check-in and check-out times are also not printed. The only check-in note is for Dorsett: a “26-hour Stay” with “Flexible check-in time”, and members’ “Guaranteed late check-out (up to 4 additional hours)”. Pets and accessibility are not published.

Leisure publication is partial. Dorsett publishes an “Outdoor heated infinity pool with poolside bar” and Isoletto Pool Club. Star Grand and Darling pool details were not available on a fetchable page. Azure Spa & Fitness is published for both spa and gym. The setting is Broadbeach Island, next to the Nerang River, by secondary source.

Dining, entertainment and access

Dining is one of the less complete groups for this property. The roster has a Dorsett entry for Jin Cafe & Bar on level 1 and in-room dining from The Star restaurants through “Dorsett Dash”. It also records, by medium-confidence sources, that Wikipedia lists seven restaurants and eight bars. Star venue names were not fetchable, and bars are not otherwise published in the roster.

Theatre data is stronger, though secondary. The theatre, listed by Wikipedia as Jupiters Theatre, has 2,000 seated capacity and 2,300 general admission capacity, with a balcony added for up to 300 seats. Convention capacity is not scored as an on-site published-capacity figure: the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre is adjacent, managed by The Star on behalf of the Queensland Government, but is not on site in the roster.

Access data is limited. The airport parameter records Gold Coast Airport at the southern end of the Gold Coast, Bilinga, approximately 90 km south of Brisbane; the distance from the airport to Broadbeach is not stated. Public transport, parking and casino opening hours are not published. The city-distance parameter uses secondary Gold Coast-to-Brisbane figures, not a local Broadbeach distance.

Regulatory and change notes

The Queensland state rule line applies to this profile. The regulator is the Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation, Queensland Government. The state note records The Star Gold Coast casino licence as suspended, with suspension deferred, since 9 December 2022, with a Special Manager appointed on the same date. The same Queensland facts note says the 30 September 2026 date is time-sensitive and has passed, with no later fetched Queensland decision found.

The change list records a 12 August 2025 binding agreement with CTFE/FEC. The note says Star exits Destination Brisbane Consortium and “consolidate[s] The Star’s Gold Coast position”, with Star to take joint-venture partners’ Gold Coast interests. Stage 2 includes DGCC. The roster also records the 25 September 2025 Queensland Government decision deferring licence suspension and extending the Special Manager to 30 September 2026. Wikipedia notes the Epsilon tower, Star Residences, as due 2025; that is secondary.

Under the country rules, Australia bans online casino play under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001. This profile concerns a physical venue only. The site does not offer gambling.
