Rent influencer Troy Candy's ultimate party house for $11k/week

A grand Gold Coast mansion and scene of a wild bash complete with red carpet, onsite tattoos, a jet ski stunt show and fireworks is up for rent at an eye-popping price. Named Bellagio, the waterfront property was recently promoted as a luxury getaway and location for lavish events, but is now available to lease long-term at $11,000 a week plus $50,000 bond. It's Queensland's priciest rental listing and third nationwide, just behind two prestige estates in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs at $12,500 and $12,000 a week. The five-bedroom Venetian-inspired estate has a resort-style pool and spa flanked by pavilions and tennis court, while inside a plush cinema, commercial kitchen and bars make for an entertainer's dream. Entrepreneur and social media influencer Troy 'Candy' Williams hosted the most recent major event at the property, installing a red carpet and more than 60m of balloons to celebrate the launch of the latest flavour of his alco-pop range, Gee Up. Entertainment included a pop-up tattoo stall, circus performers, and a high-octane jet ski display.

Portelli just announced his own TV show My Reno Rules on rival network Channel 7. The pair share a passion for luxury cars and together head up a vodka company and energy drink brand, while Williams also works for Portelli's LMCT Plus — the company launched its latest giveaway of all five homes from the last season of The Block. Race car driver Craig Scutella and partner Iryna Mulligan bought the Hope Island property for $5.51m in a fire sale in 2020 after the previous owner defaulted on a mortgage. Located on a private peninsula parcel of 4982 sqm, it had previously sold for $9m in 2009. 'Seeking its inspiration from the Mediterranean, this residence occupies the largest block within the estate and exudes a commanding presence,' the rental listing by Mr Scutella said. 'Striking columns, dome ceilings, marble tiles and an ornate staircase immediately capture your attention upon arrival before leading you through to the formal dining and lounge. '[The house is] capable of hosting intimate soirees or large-scale functions. Gather your guests by the pool for cocktails, host garden parties by the canal or soak in the breezes from the upper balconies – your entertaining options are endless.' The home's master bedroom was described as 'presidential', including a spacious walk-in robe and dressing room as well as an ensuite with gold-plated finishes complete with his and hers toilets and bidets, showers and a spa. PropTrack data shows a typical house in Hope Island rents for $1,200 a week, up 14.3 per cent over the past 12 months.
