Global developer MRCB International’s debut Queensland project, 26 Vista, will have the highest residential pool on the Gold Coast when it's complete in 2026.

The amenity, on level 51 of the Vista Street building just off the beach in Surfers Paradise, will be reserved for the residents of the three and four-bedroom apartments from level 33 and up.

Dubbed the Alto Private Lounge, the rooftop will feature a sky pool, as well as a private dining space, kitchen, and a bar with cocktail-style seating.

Also forming part of the rooftop is ‘Stratos 168’, which is accessible to all residents. That offers an indoor and outdoor lounge, fire pits, garden beds, and an outdoor workspace.

Level 4 is home to ‘Club Vista’, comprising a large pool and yoga sun deck, as well as a cycle-room and gym offering world class equipment open to all residents.

MRCB International CEO Ravi Krishnan is confident that the extensive range of wellness amenities will allow residents of 26 Vista to enjoy a lifestyle that mimics staying in contemporary hotels.

“The Gold Coast is one of Australia’s favourite holiday destinations, and our aim is to debut in the hotly contested Queensland market with a project that allows our residents to live like they are on a permanent vacation, through an amenity rich, convenience driven gamut of initiatives," Krishnan says.

“Taking advantage of Queensland’s incredible weather, we have introduced numerous outdoor living and socialising zones that offer views, but with the type of seclusion experienced in suburban homes.

Krishnan says the sky pool "totally disconnects you from the world."

"It'll be very special to look out of the pool and only see the sky above you.

26 Vista is a visionary masterpiece that aims to fuel the imagination of residents by curating distinctive identities that elevate amenity spaces to unprecedented heights, evoking the essence of renowned luxury like other amenities worldwide."

26 Vista’s amenity focus extends to its location; sitting along the Gold Coast’s much lauded tram line, which is currently in the next stage of extension.

Urban Activation Director Matthew George believes that amenity rich towers such as 26 Vista also need to offer the convenience and the immediacy typically experienced with inner city living, or hotels.

26 Vista introduces a list of amenities that are competitive within the metropolis that is Surfers Paradise market, and also offers initiatives that make day to day living a little less stressful.

“Convenience aspects such as being situated within multiple public transport hubs, electric car charging facilities, a full service concierge, and a wide range of wellness and exercise facilities help to elevate the lifestyle of those calling 26 Vista home.

“Projects like this are shaping the Gold Coast market because through introducing a hotel-like lifestyle, they are able to dramatically elevate the quality of life of the residents,” he said.

26 Vista, designed by DBI, is set to be one of the Gold Coast's greenest towers, with a range of sustainability features future-proofing the project.
