A five-star apartment hotel in inner Sydney, best known for accommodating Married At First Sight couples during filming, has closed its luxury amenities amid a dispute over an unpaid strata bill.
Property developer Iwan Sunito has been drawn into the escalating conflict, after strata records obtained by the Daily Mail alleged that about $320,000 in unpaid levies had been referred to debt collectors.
Guests and residents at One Global Resorts in Zetland’s upscale Green Square precinct have been unable to use the infinity pool, jacuzzi, sauna and gym since October 26.
The facilities were still closed 17 days later. The disruption is understood to have forced the hotel to reject potential bookings from high-profile guests and sporting teams.
Documents seen by the Mail indicate the latest closure is part of a wider dispute at the complex. Committee records detail disagreements over shared costs, an expensive air-conditioning repair and the hotel’s alleged use of a residents’ bicycle room to store housekeeping supplies.
The most recent minutes reviewed by the Daily Mail, dated September 16, 2026, state that the strata committee was informed the hotel owner had not paid levies since April.

Property developer Iwan Sunito has been caught up in an escalating dispute after leaked strata records revealed about $320,000 in unpaid hotel levies had been referred to debt collectors
According to the minutes, the arrears were nearing $320,000 and continued to increase.
The debt was referred to collectors, while the building management committee gave the owner’s representative 14 days to explain the missed payments and put forward an acceptable repayment plan.
The records also warned of potential consequences for the building if the dispute remained unresolved.
If payment or a satisfactory repayment arrangement was not secured before November, the building management committee could have been required to consider cutting certain non-essential services involving personnel.
Several weeks after the strata meeting, residents and hotel guests were told that access to the leisure facilities had been suspended.
A notice published on the hotel’s website attributes the closure to maintenance and provides no reopening date.
‘Our jacuzzi, outdoor pool, sauna and gym are currently closed for maintenance until further notice. We apologise for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding,’ the notice says.
The Daily Mail understands the amenities were closed in connection with the unpaid levy dispute.

The September minutes do not document a decision to shut the pool or gym. They do, however, show the financial strain facing the complex before access was restricted.
For Sunito, the dispute has put renewed attention on a property whose facilities are familiar to audiences of one of Australia’s biggest reality television shows.
One Global Resorts houses Married At First Sight participants during production, and scenes from the controversial Channel Nine series have featured its pool and sauna.
The amenities are also an important attraction for paying guests, meaning the extended closure presents a commercial problem for the hotel.
The leaked records point to a broader disagreement over how expenses should be shared between the residential and commercial sections of the development.
In September, the residential owners corporation was still engaged in a dispute resolution process over the building management committee’s method for allocating costs.
The minutes say owners were negotiating to limit expenses and achieve a fairer division of shared costs affecting Residential One.
Earlier records show the scale of those concerns.
Minutes dated June 2, 2025, refer to a faulty chiller plant that primarily served the retail and hotel areas. Repairs were estimated to cost about $400,000.
Under a proposed new strata management statement, the residential committee said its share would be about 1 per cent.
However, the minutes record that non-residential members planned to proceed with the repair under the existing allocation, leaving Residential One responsible for about 40 per cent of the bill.
The same meeting also recorded a $122,000 compensation claim by Residential One over allegedly inaccurate gross floor area figures.
Another source of tension involved a room intended for residents to store their bicycles.
The June 2025 minutes allege that One Global Hotels had used the bike room to store linen and housekeeping supplies without the owners corporation’s consent since 2023.
The committee commissioned a valuation and resolved to seek compensation after receiving the final report.
The minutes state that the arrangement had deprived residents of access to the amenity without approval from the owners corporation.
Taken together, the records show a complex dispute involving both the cost of operating the development and control of its shared facilities.

TBA Strata declined to comment on the report when approached by the Daily Mail.
‘TBA Strata does not comment on, confirm or discuss the contents of reports prepared for its clients,’ the company said in a statement.
For residents and hotel guests, the immediate concern is when the pool, sauna and gym will become available again.
The hotel’s public notice says the amenities will remain closed until further notice.
This is not the first time Sunito has attracted headlines.
He previously made news after a bitter split with former Crown Group business partner Paul Sathio, a dispute that unexpectedly became a social media sensation.
Sunito posted a video captioned ‘CAUGHT RED-HANDED’, appearing to show him confronting two employees in an office. One of the employees was seen removing stacks of documents from a drawer.
The footage drew millions of views and renewed attention on the collapse of the property empire the pair had built over more than two decades.
In posts accompanying the video, Sunito alleged that documents had gone missing and accounting records had been deleted during the breakdown of the partnership. Those claims remain contested, and the Daily Mail makes no suggestion of wrongdoing by Sathio or the employees shown.
The corporate fallout also involved the Green Square hotel, formerly known as Skye Suites, which was later transferred to Sunito’s ownership and incorporated into his One Global business.
Sunito has described the property as a key part of his recovery following the collapse of Crown Group.
In an Instagram post, he said regaining control of Green Square in 2024 had provided ‘the foundation for a new beginning’.
Responding to questions from the Daily Mail, Sunito said the hotel was continuing to perform strongly, with occupancy close to capacity.
‘One Global Resorts Green Square continues to perform exceptionally well, with occupancy surging above 95 per cent,’ he said.
‘Our guests love the peaceful, double-glazed accommodation, direct access to Green Square Station, just one stop from Central and two stops from Sydney Domestic Airport, as well as the vibrant addition of One Muse café, bar and gallery.’
His statement did not respond to the $320,000 in levy arrears recorded in the September minutes, the reason the facilities were closed or when they would reopen.
