Thai hospitality brand Dusit International is expanding globally with properties launching in the US, Africa and Australia.

Dusit opened the dusitD2 Constance Pasadena hotel in Pasadena’s downtown area, Los Angeles in September 2014. The 136-bedroom hotel has been remodelled and a second phase of the property’s development – set for completion in 2016 – will add 25 club level guest rooms, a rooftop pool with outdoor sundeck and pool bar, a fitness centre, two boardrooms and a selection of retail and dining outlets.

One month later, the 101-bedroom dusitD2 Nairobi soft-opened in Kenya. Located in Riverside, the signature Devarana Spa features six single treatment rooms and one double suite. There is also an outdoor swimming pool a DFiT health club and a range of meeting rooms at the property. Dusit International has indicated it expects to increase its African portfolio in years to come.

Investors Springfield Land Corporation, World Group UK and Maxsen Capital Hong Kong gathered recently at the Brookwater Golf Club in Queensland to announce the Dusit Thani Brookwater Golf Club and Spa Resort at First Residence. The first project for Dusit on Australian soil will see the construction of 168 resort apartments in its first phase, with private plunge pools overlooking the Greg Norman-designed Brookwater Golf Course.

Also included in the first phase of development will be a recreation club with beach-style lagoon pools, lap pools, water slides, a gym, a bridal centre and a wedding chapel. There will also be a resort clubhouse with four signature restaurants, a Devarana Spa, extensive meeting and events facilities. This first phase is set to cost AU$110m (US$95m, €76m, £61m).

Upon full completion, the resort will feature a total of 520 resort apartments, a tennis stadium, a water park, a retail emporium, an aquatic centre designed to Commonwealth Games standards and a convention centre. The total investment for the project is more than AU$550m (US£474m, €382m, £303m).

Chanin Donavanik, chief executive officer of Dusit International commented: "We are very proud of our company heritage – of exporting the very best of Thai culture to different areas of the world including Nairobi, California and the Maldives. We hope the Australian community will also embrace our unique offering."
