Further experience was then gained In 1996, Dineen Tourism Management (DTM) was contracted by the former Bond owned Cockatoo Island Resort in the remote but breathtaking Buccaneer Archipelago region of Western Australia to bring this property back to its former 5 star glory and regain its airline packaging stature. In 9 months, John Dineen re commissioned this island including its restaurant and the refurbishment and restoration of its 20 original, heritage miner’s villas to 4.5 standard.
