Avani’s development pipeline includes Avani+ Lanexang Vientiane in Laos and Avani Kota Kinabalu Hotel in Malaysia, both opening in Q2 2026, as well as Avani Mooloolaba Beach Hotel in Australia, which will also launch in Q2 2026. Avani Queenstown in New Zealand is scheduled for Q3 2026, and Avani Wollongong in Australia is set to open in 2027.
