Preferred Hotel Group[/b] is delighted to announce two new members in the scenic Kimberley region of Western Australia, offering quintessential Australian experiences within spectacular landscapes. The award-winning Pinctada Cable Beach Spa Resort is joining the Preferred Boutique portfolio, while [b]Pinctada Kimberley Grande, Kununurra is the newest member of Summit Hotels & Resorts.
Pinctada Cable Beach Spa Resort in Broome offers 72 guestrooms and suites, plus an asymmetrical pool with spa nooks, a cascading water feature, and a 25-meter lap lane. This five-star luxury resort was named Australia's Best Resort-Style Accommodation at the 2010 Australian Hotels Association National Awards for Excellence, and the signature restaurant Selene Brasserie set a new benchmark as Best Country Restaurant of the Year at The West Australian Good Food Guide Awards. The resort is just a five-minute walk to the 22-km Cable Beach, one of the world's most beautiful beaches.
The Pinctada Spa is Australia's only LI'TYA concept spa with an extensive treatment menu based on Australia's native botanicals and Aboriginal wisdom and holistic healing. Specialty sea and earth treatments include the indigenous mother of pearl shell – Pinctada maxima – from the Indian Ocean off Broome's coast, and stones gathered in nearby Kununurra. The spa also offers Vichy shower treatment rooms, mineral bath, hydrotherapy for scalp and feet, and an infrared dry float.
In Kununurra, renowned for its outback hospitality and magnificent landscapes, the homestead-style Pinctada Kimberley Grande offers 72 guestrooms, including five oversized spa suites. Home to cast and crew during the filming of Baz Luhrmann's epic film Australia , the hotel is well-positioned to take advantage of scenic flights over the World Heritage Bungle Bungle Range and Lake Argyle, spectacular Ord River cruises, and a multitude of activities such as canoeing, fishing, hiking, and bird-watching. The hotel also offers a 25-meter swimming pool with spa, three restaurants and bars, and conference facilities for up to 260 persons.
"Pinctada Cable Beach Spa Resort perfectly complements our award-winning Preferred Boutique portfolio regionally, setting a new standard within Broome," said Lynne Ireland, area managing director – Australia, New Zealand & the Pacific – for Preferred Hotel Group. "Together with Pinctada Kimberley Grande, we are able to offer bespoke experiences that capture the essence of the Kimberley region."
"I think Pinctada Hotels & Resorts and Preferred Hotel Group are a perfect match," said Marilynne Paspaley AM, founder and managing director of Pinctada Hotels & Resorts. "We share a belief that the new era of luxury travel is about offering travellers a distinctive and individual experience that connects them with a special destination. Backed by sound business principles and an impressive global network, Preferred is also an innovative and creative company that demands consistent commitment to excellence. I am pleased that Preferred Hotel Group recognises similar values in Pinctada Hotels & Resorts, and I am looking forward to working with the Preferred team."
