Some of the best inspiration for independent operators isn't in a case study, it's in a proper renovation.

The team behind Surf Hotel Torquay, Jack Davis and George Robinson's Blackwood, has just finished their second project: The Roy in Rainbow Beach, a refresh of the much-loved '90s Rainbow Sands Resort.

Interiors are again by Pasquale Cook, with coral, sand, burnt orange and sky blue tones, custom tessellated tiles and a new pool with daybeds. The layout, motel rooms, family suites and a bungalow across three levels, stayed largely as-is. The look didn't.

"Being honest to the building's history was important to us," says Davis.

If you're weighing up a renovation over a rebuild, this is exactly the kind of project worth studying. More from Blackwood at NoVacancy 2026, ICC Sydney, 23 and 24 September.
