In 2000, Cyclone Rosita tore through Broome, Western Australia, wiping out the world-famous Eco Beach Resort – but not the steely resolve of its owner, Karl Plunkett. Amidst the rubble and ruins, Karl conceived a vision to redesign and rebuild a completely new resort concept fusing glamorous eco design with extreme weather structural integrity.
In 2009, Eco Beach Resort was reborn as a thriving tourism ‘village’ of lightweight, demountable structures, ranging from tents, to modules and gazebos. It was a grand accomplishment – but it was just the beginning.
Fuelled by his burning desire to innovate and revolutionise, Karl launched Eco Structures Australia to change the way travellers interact with the people and places. Based in Perth, Western Australian, this team of passionate progressives would soon become a leading worldwide manufacturer of luxury glamping tents and eco cabins.
With the trend of glamping, staycations, ecotourism and wellness tourism growing rapidly, Eco Structures Australia is leading the way by helping resort owners and operators capitalise on the modern traveller’s demand for luxurious, one-of-a-kind experiences.
