Reviews of Robina, QLD

"PERFECT BALANCE"

Robina offers the best lifestyle balance and is such a desirable place to live. I've lived in Robina for several years and then moved all over Australia and chose to come back to Robina. It's perfect for young families with the new Green Heart precinct and offers everything from close proximity to beaches, schools, stadiums, shops, hospitals, trains etc. It ticks every box for raising a young family.

"GREAT SUBURB!"

Robina is a great suburb for location and lifestyle. One of the best shopping facilities on the Gold Coast with Robina Town Centre, 5-10 minute drive to Burleigh Beach, M1 motorway and great schools are also within easy reach. If you want to know more about living here, contact Matt Micallef and his team, Robina's Leading Agent.

"Robina is the perfect place to live!"

Robina has great diversity, there are so many things to love, but I do feel that a huge bonus is you are literally within a 5-min round trip & I really mean 3 to 5 mins of everything you need. Robina public & Private Hospital, CBUS Stadium for sporting events & concerts. Train station & great bus routes, primary & high schools, a huge shopping centre with all the brands you need. But then you also have your smaller community villages, lots of green space & all a 10-15 min drive to the beach.

"Not what it seems"

Robina seems like a great option but beware it is not. Evergreen View is the worst place I have ever lived. If you want your home vandalised, children screaming 10+ hours a day, drug deals and neighbours who love to harass and bully you then Robina is the place for you!

Wow you must be in a bad area as I have never experienced any of your issues. I have lived here for over 4 years having moved up from down South and really love it. We have two kids and they love Robina. We live overlooking a golf course and at most times during the day and night you could hear a pin drop.
There is so much to love. Robina shopping Centre is fantastic, great walks, cafes and restaurants, family friendly and just great facilities in general. It is just so close to everywhere- 10 mins drive to Burleigh or Broadbeach and a 10 minute walk to Varsity from our place. Very happy resident.

This is not reflective of my 10+ years in Robina. The suburb is very safe - look at the crime stats which show it.

"Arguably the best suburb for families on the Gold Coast!"

As a real estate agent agent working in Robina, I meet residents of Robina on a daily basis. These are very often families who have lived in the suburb in excess of 20 years and is testament to how wonderful the suburb is.

Robina is a great suburb for families, with a fantastic infrastructure and a good choice of state and private schools. There are lots of wonderful parks and it’s a short drive to the beach and hinterland. It’s really very difficult to beat as far as lifestyle goes and hence the reluctance of residents to leave the suburb.

This does make it a little difficult for new families wanting to buy in the suburb, however, for this very reason it is a great investment to own a property in the suburb and the price of houses has grown steadily and consistently over many years.

A recent trend in the area is the renovation of older homes and there are some beautifully renovated homes that have come onto the market recently.

There is rarely new homes available to purchase, however, every once in a while a home will be demolished and a new one built in its place. This is the case at 1 Bilgola Place, Robina and the block has been cleared and subdivided and there will be 2 new 4 bedroom homes built and ready for sale in April 2019.

I expect this to become a trend in the suburb as the value of the blocks continue to rise due to the suburb being so sought after.

To see more on the development at 1 Bilgola Place have a look at https://orrentopolansky.com.au/1-bilgola-place-robina-1/

I think a common comment I hear from interstate migrants says it all, when they say that the only mistake they made about moving to Robina was that they didn’t move sooner!

Robina is scattered with beautiful areas that will suit every lifestyle. It is close to the stunning Gold Coast beaches and only a stones throw to the serentity of the hinterland.

Personally my kids attend Kings Christian College, and I am over the moon about everything the school offers. There is also a number of excellant schools scattered around Robina and surrounding suburbs.

"So central, but expensive for smaller, older houses"

Expensive homes for the size, small blocks than many other suburbs, but the centrality to shopping, train, footy stadium, hospital is all great. If you’re thinking of moving here and you’re not from the Coast, don’t expect the beach!

Great for

  • Shopping, dining, entertainment

Not great for

  • Expensive housing
  • Too much thru traffic
