I wonder how many points it will cost per night. Probably more than I have.

EK had stopped points redemption for Wolgan Valley some years ago. Maybe they will allow this again with the new opening. Maybe Marriott will allow it?

Wow - good news - we went there a couple of times years ago - it looks like the road will not be re-opened which could be a challenge - given access will be via 4WD on the Donkey Steps (just read about this recently reopened track) or helicopter so poor weather conditions could see access in/out closed.

It was pretty expensive before closing so I presume it will be in the +$3000 range (similar to Baillie lodges).

Wonder why Emirates wanted Ritz-Carlton's involvement?

I still remember a former poster's trip report of the resort, it sounds wonderful but I don't think it'll ever be in my budget.

The name..

Ritz Carlton sounds far far better than anything else
