Hayman is set to introduce new levels of international resort excellence with the unveiling of an exclusive collection of  Beach Villas at the premier Great Barrier Reef private island destination.

Opening in December 2010, eight absolute beachfront Villas, on the shores of Hayman, will offer  uninterrupted views of the sparkling Coral Sea and beyond with unsurpassed interior appointments.

The luxury villas at Hayman are set to open in Decmeber 2010.

Hayman owning company, Mulpha Australia has engaged internationally renowned architect, Kerry Hill, to design each Villa, which will provide 120 square metres of sheer luxury, including a stunning private pool.

This significant project for Hayman is part of a major upgrade program throughout the resort which includes the scheduled completion and delivery in 2010 of the first Kerry Hill-designed Hayman Private Residence, which is being anticipated to redefine lifestyle home ownership.

Mulpha head of hotel investment and Hayman managing director, Lloyd Donaldson, who is overseeing the current projects, said the eagerly awaited opening of the new Beach Villas was evidence of a commitment to ensure Hayman maintained its position as one of the most celebrated private island resorts in a competitive world market.

“This is a milestone period as Hayman celebrates 60 years as a leading tourism destination welcoming guests to enjoy a unique and memorable resort and reef experience.” Donaldson said.

“The opening of our Beach Villas and ongoing upgrades affirm our intention to deliver new standards of product and service and position Hayman as a benchmark for resort excellence in Australia and internationally.”
