Calile Noosa

Bruce Highway is being progressively enhanced, and proposals for an extension of the railway
line from Brisbane to Maroochydore is under serious discussion in the lead up to the Sunshine
Coast being a co-host of the 2032 Olympic Games.

These initiatives will provide outstanding opportunities for the region to continue growing the
region’s $5billion visitor economy (includes $1.6 billion for Noosa), which is the principal driver
of income and jobs for the local community. However, future growth in tourism – especially
high-yielding, longer-stay interstate and international growth – may be constrained without
adequate new tourism accommodation infrastructure.

Visit Sunshine Coast evaluates new accommodation proposals using the following
considerations to identify priority projects:
    • Upscale – 5-star accommodation
    • Large scale
    • Strong branding
    • Substantial conference and events facilities
    • Prime location
    • Established funding
    • Environmentally and Community conscious

Our assessment is that the Calile Noosa hotel proposal fulfils these considerations and
represents a compelling high-quality tourism accommodation facility that will positively
contribute to the region’s tourism industry.

Recognising the positive economic impact the project would have on the region, Visit Sunshine
Coast would like to add its support for the Calile Noosa hotel project, if it fulfills the Noosa
Council development guidelines, and we would look forward to being involved in the project
from a tourism perspective.

We are available to discuss any of these matters further with Council representatives.

Sunny regards
