Details:

Twin Waters is a four-star golf resort complex catering for families. The central private lagoon with sandy beaches is the focus of the hotel and provides an extensive range of water activities. The accommodation facilities are nestled around the lagoon in a tropical landscape setting which is sensitive to the coastal environment. A strong water theme with entry ponds and internal water cascades provides a peaceful entry ambiance to the resort. A significant design initiative of the project was the use of plants from expo 88, which were transplanted to a holding nursery prior to installation into the resort landscape design.
