IHG Hotels & Resorts (IHG) has partnered with Felix Capital to launch Holiday Inn & Suites Caloundra Sunshine Coast in Australia.
Scheduled to open in early 2028, the new hotel will form part of a mixed-use development in the heart of the Sunshine Coast.
The 160-room hotel will include 33 suites, an open lobby, all-day dining restaurant and lobby café, rooftop restaurant and sky bar, meeting spaces, fitness centre, outdoor pool and kids’ club.
Located on Bulcock Street, Caloundra, the property is a 90-minutes’ drive from Brisbane, and just 35-minutes from Maroochydore Airport. Plus, a light rail with connectivity from Brisbane Airport was recently announced by Queensland State Government, to be completed in advance of the 2032 Summer Olympics in Brisbane.
Cameron Burke, director of development, Australasia & Pacific, IHG said: “Balancing a desired location and outstanding aspect, with convenient accessibility to a myriad of diverse recreational activities, we expect Holiday Inn & Suites Caloundra Sunshine Coast to be a popular destination for leisure and business travellers alike, particularly with families.”
“Sunshine Coast boasts an abundance of opportunity for the community, and we are proud to be making our mark in Caloundra. Our vision aligns with the Holiday Inn brand as we bring to market the area’s first international hotel, offering an accommodation, dining, leisure and business precinct that is modern, affordable and convenient… while creating hundreds of new jobs and showing Queensland, Australia and the world the beauty of the Sunshine Coast,” added Michael Maroun, CEO and founder, Felix Capital.
