How we report developments
We distinguish planning records from developer announcements. An environmental decision does not automatically mean a hotel has final planning approval, construction has started or reservations are available.
This page reflects the sources checked on the date shown. New information is reviewed before a status changes; we do not invent opening dates.
What the resort proposal includes
The project developer describes The Westin Margaret River Resort & Spa as a 121-room, full-service five-star resort with a function centre, multiple food and beverage facilities, a fitness centre and day spa. These are proposed facilities, not current bookable amenities.
The wider Gnarabup project
The resort sits within a broader Gnarabup tourism proposal. The project website describes Gnarabup Village as 51 beach houses, 25 apartments, four townhouses and a local general-store café. The village and resort should not be assumed to open, sell or accept bookings at the same time.
Project status and booking searches
Westin Gnarabup remains a proposed project and is not approved for construction or bookings. It is included so visitors searching for the proposed Westin Margaret River Resort & Spa can find a dated, source-led status update. No opening date or reservations are confirmed.
