THAI hospitality brand Dusit International has joined hands with Springfield Land Corporation, World Group UK and Maxsen Capital Hong Kong to launch the Dusit Thani Brookwater Golf & Spa Resort at First Residence in Australia’s Queensland.
Located in Springfield, about 20 minutes from Brisbane’s CBD and 30 minutes from the Gold Coast, and with two international airports within easy reach, the resort marks Dusit International’s first property on Australian soil.
In its A$110 million (US$96 million) first phase, the resort will offer 168 luxury resort apartments with private plunge pools overlooking the Greg Norman-designed Brookwater Golf Course.
In addition, there will be a recreation club with beach-style lagoon pools, lap pools, water slides, a gymnasium, a bridal centre and a wedding chapel; a resort clubhouse boasting four signature restaurants; a lobby lounge; 24-hour concierge services; an executive club; the brand’s own Devarana Spa, al fresco restaurants and food markets, plus extensive meetings and events facilities.
Upon full completion, the innovative resort will feature a total of 520 apartments, a tennis stadium, a water park, a retail emporium, an aquatic centre designed to Commonwealth Games standards and a convention centre, amounting to a total investment in excess of A$550 million.
“The Dusit Thani Brookwater Golf & Spa Resort at First Residence is perfectly placed to serve rising visitor demand to Australia and Queensland, from both local and overseas markets,” said David Shackleton, COO of Dusit International.
“The resort’s location between the two high demand markets of Brisbane and the Gold Coast and its proximity to the up-and-coming business district of Springfield is a huge advantage, and we have every confidence in the resort’s future success.”
