BWH Hotels (BWH) announces the signing of South Harbour Hervey Bay with Place Property Group to add to the pipeline of hotels opening in 2025. This new-build development is due to open in 24 months under BWH’s soft brand offering, BW Signature Collection. Situated on The Esplanade, South Harbour is in the heart of Hervey Bay Queensland, within walking distance to cafes, restaurants and the famous Urangan Pier South.
Constructed by Brisbane based developers, Place Property Group, South Harbour will be made up of a variety of coastal style terraces and homes that all feature easy access to the beach and are surrounded by beautiful scenery. A total of four houses, 10 villa style homes, plus eight duplexes are included in the project, all boasting luxurious and modern architectural designs with a community and family focus. The property includes interconnected walking trails, a community garden and outdoor access from each villa. South Harbour will be the perfect escape for families, with a pristine and calm beach at your doorstep accompanied by a myriad of local parks that surround the area.
Graham Perry, BWH Hotel’s Managing Director Australasia said, “We’re delighted to add this property to the BW Signature Collection. The partnership with Place Property Group is an excellent opportunity to achieve a white label brand that’ll stand out amongst BWH’s soft brand offerings. This new-build property will exude a unique design and provide an exceptional stay worthy of the destination its established in”.
The location is one of a kind. A two-hour scenic drive from the Sunshine Coast, a three-and-a-half-hour drive north of Brisbane, with its own domestic airport, Hervey Bay has become one of Queensland’s most desirable locations. Hervey Bay is the gateway to the world heritage listed “Kgari” Fraser Island, the world’s largest sand island known for its magnificent rainforest, lakes, dingoes, 75 Mile Beach and must-see shipwreck, fishing, four-wheel driving and camping for the adventurous.
BW Signature Collection is one of BWH Hotel’s soft brands that offers an exclusive collection of unique and versatile hotels, distinguished by their originality and individual personas. South Harbour will be the third property in Australia to launch under this brand alongside Garden City Hotel and Lincoln Downs Resort – and will debut an exceptional design and magnificent experiences for its guests. BW Signature Collection exhibits a sense of creativity and locality in every space and South Harbour will be no exception. The property integrates seamlessly into its surrounds, finding that perfect combination of modern and contemporary design whilst embracing the natural scenery.
South Harbour amenities includes individual outdoor patios and pools for each villa, full size kitchens/ kitchenettes with cooktop, dishwasher, sink, microwave and refrigerator, free high-speed Wi-Fi, dedicated zones for dining, work and living plus separate bedrooms. The villas and duplexes are designed to fit families and groups of friends that come in all shapes and sizes.
South Harbour will be an exciting addition to BWH Hotels and sits at the heart of destination experience – the perfect home away from home.
