Marriott International has signed a deal with the Makris Group to expand its portfolio of luxury hotels with the Marina Mirage Gold Coast.
Expected to feature 122-keys, the new-build resort is planned for the Marina Mirage mixed-use precinct.
The family-owned Makris Group is spearheading the development of the resort on the site they have owned since 2013.
The property will also feature a signature restaurant, expansive function and event spaces, a rooftop bar and pool, jacuzzi, garden, wellness and beauty centre and a day spa.
“The destination’s resilience during and post pandemic has been remarkable and we are very confident that proven demand for high-quality hotel experiences will be a strong foundation for the success of our first Luxury Collection property on mainland Australia,” said Richard Crawford, Vice President of Hotel Development for Australia, New Zealand and Pacific, Marriott International.
The Gold Coast hotel will be the second Luxury Collection property in Australia, joining The Tasman in Hobart which has won numerous prestigious awards since opening in 2021.
“Along with its excellence achieved in architectural design, we are confident that our unique property will quickly reinvigorate its environment, while delivering a world-class destination for the Gold Coast, Queensland, and our economy,” said Jason Makris, Chief Executive Officer of the Makris Group.
Marina Mirage Gold Coast will join other Marriott International properties on the Gold Coast, operating alongside JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort & Spa and Sheraton Grand Mirage Gold Coast.
