A major hotel redevelopment in the Bay of Islands, delivering upgraded guest accommodations and hospitality facilities at the Copthorne Hotel & Resort.
ARCO Group was entrusted with the redevelopment of the Copthorne Hotel in the Bay of Islands — a project that demanded precision, efficiency, and a high standard of finish. Through meticulous planning, streamlined coordination, and disciplined budget control, ARCO successfully delivered the full refurbishment one month ahead of schedule and within the agreed budget.
This 20-week project involved the comprehensive renovation of 36 guest rooms, including full bathroom upgrades, all executed to the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship. The early completion allowed the client to reopen the rooms during peak trading season — realising immediate financial benefits and maximising their return on investment.
ARCO Group’s ability to deliver ahead of programme while maintaining excellence in execution highlights our commitment to adding real value through efficient delivery. The client was extremely satisfied with the outcome and appreciative of the positive commercial impact enabled by our proactive approach. This project stands as a testament to ARCO Group’s expertise in delivering complex hospitality upgrades on time, on budget, and to an exceptional standard.
“The team from Arco Group delivered an outstanding refurbishment for our hotel at Copthorne Bay of Islands. The entire ARCO team demonstrated exceptional coordination, flexibility, and a genuine can-do attitude. We would like to engage them again or to recommend them for any hospitality refurbishment projects.”
