Mantra now the Soul operator
Australia’s largest resort operator, Mantra Group, has been appointed to manage apartment letting at the Soul development in Surfers Paradise.
Mantra Group will manage the property as Soul Surfers Paradise.
The change in management will take place in early November.
Bob East, Mantra Group CEO said: "The property is already recognised as an outstanding development and our vision is for Soul to be considered one of the most iconic and successful integrated beachside properties in Australia."
Soul is a 77-level tower located on the corner of Cavill Ave and The Esplanade, Surfers Paradise. Developed by Juniper, the development – including the apartment letting business – was placed into receivership in October 2012.
Mantra Group owns and operates three brands – Peppers, Mantra and BreakFree – with more than 114 properties and 15,000 rooms under management.
It made its first foray into Asia with the opening of Mantra Nusa Dua, Bali in March.
