[markis10]

Not even a sod turned and it’s growing!

IHG Hotels and Resorts and Felix Capital have revised plans for a Sunshine Coast hotel, to meet increasing demand for quality conference and event (C&E) facilities in the region.

Initially intended as a Voco hotel, the Ocean Street development has been reconceptualised under the Crowne Plaza brand.

Crowne Plaza Maroochydore will feature an expanded key count of 180 guest rooms, up from 153, and more than 770 square metres of meeting and event space – including a 600sqm ballroom.

The food and beverage offering will include a 210-seat all-day restaurant, a 160-seat signature dining venue, an outdoor pool bar and lounge, alongside a lobby bar.

There will also be a 30-metre pool and spa, wellness retreat, gym, sauna, and secure basement parking across two levels.

Construction is expected to commence in early 2026 with a targeted opening in 2028.
