The first premium accommodation of its size on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, the RACV Cape Schanck Resort which sits on an 18-hole championship golf course, is opening its doors this August.
The new RACV Cape Schanck Resort is the latest addition to the company’s leisure portfolio, which boasts resorts across Victoria, as well as in Noosa, the Gold Coast and Hobart. Executive General Manager of RACV’s Leisure business, Craig Peachey, anticipates the RACV Cape Schanck Resort will entice more visitors to the region and the resort’s positive economic impact will be enjoyed by the Peninsula for years to come.
“The resort is estimated to bring more than $11 million every year to the Mornington Peninsula, acting as a major force of economic activity for the local community by bringing more tourists into the region and creating new jobs.”
“We know Victorians love to travel around our beautiful state, and our members and guests can enjoy a variety of experiences at each of our resorts. All of our properties in Victoria are well located in the different regions of the state, and all RACV members and guests can access and enjoy the very best in accommodation and resort amenities at our properties,” said Mr Peachey.
The resort’s design reflects the surrounding natural landscape, embodying rugged coastlines, rolling dunes and dramatic topography. Guests will experience 180-degree panoramic ocean views, unparalleled anywhere in Victoria.
Cape Schanck Resort’s conference and event facilities are the largest of their kind on the Mornington Peninsula. The diverse spaces can cater for a range of corporate and unique events, for up to 450 guests.
The new RACV Cape Schanck Resort features three premium food and beverage outlets, led by Executive Chef Josh Pelham. The resort’s premier restaurant, Cape, creates cuisine that is stylish, contemporary and each ingredient is carefully sourced to bring together the best produce of Mornington Peninsula and regional Victoria.
Guests and visitors will also be offered two other new food and beverage outlets, Mantellina and Lighthouse Lounge. Mantellina offers a relaxed, family-friendly, café experience with an Italian-influenced menu including light snacks, stone-baked pizza and a la carte all day dining. Lighthouse Lounge is a modern all-day dining space offering a seasonal menu, light snacks and a handpicked selection of local and premium branded beer, wine and spirits.
Facilities include a 25-metre indoor pool, sauna and steam rooms and a fully-equipped gym. The resort’s One Spa, with eight different beauty and wellness treatment rooms, will be open to guests and visitors alike.
The resort sits on an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Trent Jones Jnr, which is accessible to all guests and visitors.
Multi award-winning architectural firm, Wood Marsh, designed the building, with key project engineers Arup and Umow Lai working together to capitalise upon the location’s stunning ocean views.
