Rottnest Island is well known to Australia and even more to western aussies, the problem is the island can't cope with the amount of tourists during spring and summer time and as we all know that's the best time for enjoy rotto.
Every yr rottnest has an average of 360,000 visitors to the island and with a 7.5% increase in visitors in the 05/06 period and a 5% increase in the 07/08 period there has never been a more important time for rottnest to capitalise on these figures to boost revenue and profits.
There are a few things the island has come up with in its new management plan. One of those includes a new 120 room hotel at Mt Herschel. The island management has a developed site ready but talks have stalled. Management still says there will be a hotel built on rottnest its just a matter of getting through paperwork. The other thing the island will be receiving would be new accomodation for staff living on the island to free up the units for tourits and would receive their own section of island.
Currently on school holidays, public holidays and summertime Rottnest visitors have to enter a ballot to be eligable to enter the island, ofcourse you still have to be selected. This ballot has been going on for as long as i can remember and its time the island built more units and camping grounds to acommodate tourists.
