In what has been a difficult year for tourism, The Sebel Yarrawonga has overcome enormous challenges since opening in November, 2020.
Not only did the resort open in the midst of the pandemic it had to work through Victorian lockdown periods throughout 2021 but has emerged as the state’s leading resort style accommodation, bringing a new level of luxury accommodation to the Murray River region.
“The team have done an outstanding job maintaining the vision we had for The Sebel Yarrawonga from the outset,” General Manager The Sebel Yarrawonga Jason Cooley said.
“We aim to set a new standard in accommodation excellence and provide our guests with an unforgettable visit to the Murray region.
“Our hotel has only been operating for a short period compared to many of our industry peers and during one of the most incredibly challenging times we have all faced, so to achieve this accomplishment in such a short period of time is a testament to the commitment of everyone involved.
Forming the centrepiece and heart of Silverwoods is award-winning luxury boutique hotel, Sebel Yarrawonga.
“This award further validates the high-quality standards we deliver at The Sebel Yarrawonga and is a fitting accolade for our amazing hotel.”
Mr Cooley said the hotel has been cleverly designed with a true sense of synergy between space, functionality and quality. Sleek, modern and sophisticated, yet having that beautiful rustic and earthy signature.
“It’s engendering feelings of cosiness and comfort, perfectly fuse practicality with prestige. High end luxury, yet very humble. Our hotel has the very best of all worlds by a country mile,” Mr Cooley added.
The Sebel Yarrawonga will now compete for the same title at the National TAA Awards that will be held in February in Hobart, Tasmania.
Situated an hour from Albury’s town centre and three hours from Melbourne, The Sebel Yarrawonga brings a new prestige level of accommodation and venues for weddings, meetings and events in the Murray River region. The resort offers 63 stylishly appointed studio rooms and additional spacious one, two and three-bedroom apartments overlooking picturesque Lake Mulwala.
The adjacent Black Bull 18 hole Championship Golf Course, is highly regarded as the number one golf course on the Murray and ranked 68 in the top 100 courses in Australia by Golfers Digest. It was also the last golf course designed and completed by the late Peter Thomson, one of Australia’s most revered golfing legends.
The resort also offers casual dining at Stock & Barrel bistro and cocktails and light refreshments at the Sunset Pool Bar. The SOL Health & Wellness Day Spa offers signature treatments for those seeking rest, relaxation and pampering.
