Mariner Shores Resort Information

We have enjoyed fun and memorable family holidays at Mariner Shores now since we purchased this time share back in January 1998. That is just over 13 years of fun memories and vacations with our family.

We no longer need Mariner Shores as we have found that we are busy with other pursuits and hence we have it up for sale.

Mariner Shores is a Luxury family Resort that offers designer kitchens in each unit as well as many other features. There are a total of 60 units in the complex that is built around a free-form outdoor swimming pool with tropical rainforest-type plants and a small waterfall.

The 2 bedroom unit that we are selling has a Queen size bed in the main bedroom with a large spa bath in the en-suite off the main bedroom.

The second bedroom has two single beds and a closet for clothes.

Each unit has a balcony so you can sit outside, relax and enjoy the view. The higher floors have a view of the glistening blue ocean at North Burleigh beach and the lower floors have a view of the lush tropical gardens and swimming pool.

In addition to the outside pool there is also are also spas spread around the garden, an indoor heated pool, which is perfect for swimming during the winter months, and an indoor gym for when you want to exercise.

You can view a photo gallery here of some of the features that Mariner Shores has to offer.

Here you can see a list of Facilities that you can enjoy at this fun family resort.

If you are interested in purchasing this time share week at this well-known and well-respected Gold Coast Resort then please contact Leanne via email Leanne [AT] ezy7 [DOT] com

It will be much easier for the sales process to proceed if you are in Australia. Contact me and we will see the best way to proceed.

We are currently asking $2,390 AUD for the Floating week at Mariner Shores and want to sell it as soon as possible. This is a great price for this Luxury Resort!

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Fun Family Cruise on P&O Pacific Dawn
Monday, December 20th, 2010

We have just returned from a week at sea on the Pacific Dawn cruise liner. This was our first ever cruise and was a personal dream of mine for over 30 years now!

Six family members were on this holiday. We had two cabins each with 3 people in. In one cabin was our 19 year old daughter, my husband and myself. The second cabin had our 21 year old son and two of my brothers.

It was funny because both cabins were on level 9 of the Pacific Dawn and on the same side of the ship, but our son’s cabin was at the front of the ship and my cabin was at the back of the ship. It was about 200 meters between the two cabins. Looking down the narrow corridor we could not even see the other cabin at the far end of the ship!

We left the port of Brisbane on Saturday 11th December 2010 in the pouring rain. I stood up on the jogging track on the top of the ship with a towel over my head with my video camera in hand ready to start our video journal of our fun trip.

I got absolutely drenched in the rain, but the video camera stayed dry (thank the Lord!) and we started off on our journey!

Over the coming week we had an absolutely wonderful time. We stopped at 3 ports, Noumea, New Caledonia, Lifou and Port Vila in Vanuatu. We went snorkeling in each of these ports and saw beautiful fish, star fish, coral and even a bull shark.

I was so grateful that none of us got sea sick at all! What a blessing!

The range of food was fantastic. The service and friendly on-board staff was great.

I have now lived one of my dreams. After 30 long years, I have been able to go on a wonderful cruise, seen beautiful coral and fish, enjoyed lovely food, and enjoyed precious time having fun with my family.

I would highly recommend cruising to each of you. It is a perfect opportunity to spend quality family time doing a variety of different activities, from swimming, snorkeling, watching movies or live shows, playing games and much more.

Enjoy the photos and have a Happy, Safe and Blessed Christmas and New Year!

I look forward to continuing sharing our life’s journey with you in 2011!

All the best

Leanne and Family :-)

Welcome to the blog on the second week of our honeymoon. We would like to take you with us as we continue to share our experiences on Magnetic Island in Qld, Australia.

We left Noosa on the Sunshine Coast and drove early in the morning to the Brisbane airport. From here we caught a flight to Townsville, a shuttle bus to the port and then a Ferry across to Magnetic Island.

The colours of the water were absolutely beautiful. We were blessed to stay in the One Bright Point – Mantra on Magnetic Island, right next to where the ferry arrives.

We hired a small car so that we were free to explore all of the different parts of the island. There are some dirt roads, which are off limits to the popular Mokes that a lot of people hire and so we chose a car that had no limits to it.

We explored down every road and walked down many of the tracks throughout the island. We swam in each of the little bays that we saw.

The colours, the wildlife and the reef were amazing! We went out on a reef cruise and got to swim with the beautiful coloured fish and to see the stunningly different types, colours and sizes of coral!

We also were excited to be able to snorkel around the Island itself and to enjoy many types of colourful fish and corals within walking distance from the beaches! Amazing!!!

We have included some photos below for you to see some of what we enjoyed. Magnetic Island is somewhere that we hope to go back to regularly and a place that we would highly recommend to everyone to go to!

Until next time.

To your success and fulfilment in life!

More soon!

Our honeymoon in Noosa Qld
Wednesday, June 18th, 2008

Welcome to our first blog for the iLifeStyleClub. We would like to take you on the journey with us over the coming weeks, months and years as we move together towards fulfilling our hopes and dreams and getting the most out of this wonderful gift of life! May we be able to learn from each other as we each move towards our goals and our ultimate lifestyle!

Life goes by so very quickly and each day I am learning the importance of slowing down and enjoying the journey. Life is so much more than just rushing towards some destination and goal. The real meaning in life is found by learning to enjoy the journey and those that we are blessed to do life with!

I recently had the honour of marrying my best friend, Greg. (You will also be blessed to hear from Greg sometimes.) We are still enjoying getting to really know each other and loving each other more every day.
I thought that we could share with you part of our honeymoon….

We enjoyed the first week of our honeymoon in Noosa on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia.
You can see us in the photos below. We devoured scrumptious mushy pea, meat pies.
We relaxed and soaked in the hot spa.
We had a lovely day at Australia Zoo (the home of Steve Irwin). You can see me feeding the elephant (that was fun!) and Greg and I jumping next to the photo of Steve!

We had relaxing walks along the beach and through the national parks. We even enjoyed a New Zealand Natural smoothie first thing in the morning…. Yum!

We will continue the story of our honeymoon next time. So be sure to return and find out where we went for our second week of our honeymoon!

The best part of life is the journey. So pause today, remember to smile at a stranger, to tell someone that you love them and to enjoy being YOU!

To your success in life!
Chat soon.
