Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa in Australia features 40 individual secluded suites, surrounded by private verandahs |
The much-anticipated Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa, Australia's first luxury conservation-based resort property and Emirates Hotels & Resorts' first development outside Dubai, has welcomed its first guests. The A$125 million project, built on the same principles as Emirates' acclaimed Al Maha Desert Resort & Spa, combines the expectations of the high-end traveler with a commitment to broader social, ecological and environmental sustainability.
HH Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al-Maktoum, Chairman & Chief Executive, Emirates Airline and Group, said, "Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa's combination of iconic location, understated luxury, privacy and outstanding conservation values is unparalleled in Australia. Heralding a new era of luxury travel in the country, the resort actively protects its surrounding habitat and indigenous wildlife species while delivering the first-class standards and quality expected from luxury resorts.
Located between two of Australia's most prominent national parks and bordering the Blue Mountains World Heritage Area, Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa property features 40 individual secluded suites, and is fully integrated into its environment, supporting wide-ranging conservation practices. The resort occupies only 2 per cent of its 4,000 acre land, while the remaining area is dedicated as a wildlife reserve. Wolgan Valley was selected by Dubai-based Emirates after an extensive research for a location that lent itself to excellent conservation-based practices. Australia is an important destination for Emirates, and Wolgan Valley is an outstanding example of the Dubai-based airline's long term commitment to the country.
