Investment in a portfolio of luxury holiday resorts and hotels. Project proposal Project champion: Charles, Hotels Division Manager
Project summary Acquisition of a portfolio of luxury resorts. Estimated investment: $36m Background: Up until now, our divisional focus has been on hotels. We have a portfolio of hotels in major capital cities throughout Australia and South East Asia but we need to expand. I propose we diversify, both geographically and with our product offerings to include luxury resorts. Of course there will be synergies across the group, but with these proposed resorts, we will have entre into other parts of the globe and offer better services around corporate events, weddings etc. Resort 1 – Philippines ($14.5 million AUD purchase price including start-up costs) Resort 2 – Brazil ($13.5 million AUD purchase price including start-up costs) - private island Resort 3 – Caribbean ($8 million AUD purchase price including start-up costs)
