Just a two-minute stroll from Hastings Street, the resort has received numerous design and landscaping awards, with some of the eco-friendly features including rainwater harvesting systems, sustainable building design and materials, gas and solar powered hot water systems, gas heated pools and energy efficient in-room facilities.
Outrigger Little Hastings Street contains 197 luxurious suites, villas and penthouses together with full resort facilities and a luxurious day spa to be operated by one of Queensland’s most respected operators, Stephanies, of Brisbane’s Sofitel Hotel acclaim.
