Hilton (NYSE: HLT) has today announced plans to open two new hotels on the Mediterranean island of Sardinia, following an agreement with Westmont Hospitality Group and funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. (“Oaktree”).
Baia di Chia Resort Sardinia, Curio Collection by Hilton will open this summer, with luxury resort Conrad Chia Laguna Sardinia expected to welcome its first guests in 2022. Both properties will be located in southern Sardinia at the Chia Laguna, renowned for its pristine nature, golden sandy beaches and coastline lagoons home to flocks of pink flamingos.
“Conrad Chia Laguna Sardinia and Baia di Chia Resort Sardinia, Curio Collection are welcome additions to Hilton’s growing luxury and resort portfolio, joining upcoming hotels in the Seychelles, Las Vegas and Morocco. We’re pleased to be working with our long-standing partners Westmont Hospitality Group once again,” said Patrick Fitzgibbon, senior vice president, Development, EMEA, Hilton. “As restrictions ease around the world, guests are dreaming of international trips, and with 40 new Hilton openings planned this year in Europe alone, we are looking forward to welcoming them.”
Hilton joins a strong consortium with Westmont Hospitality Group and Oaktree.
The project is held by a newly established real estate investment fund managed by Milan-based Castello SGR, one of Italy’s premier real estate management companies.
Conrad Chia Laguna Sardinia – Opening 2022
As the brand’s debut hotel in Italy, Conrad Chia Laguna Sardinia will be the latest addition to a growing collection of nearly 40 Conrad Hotels & Resorts around the world, including existing hotels in the Algarve, Abu Dhabi, London, Washington, D.C. and Singapore.
Conrad Chia Laguna Sardinia will be a family-friendly resort inspired by Sardinia’s local history and culture.
The hotel will undergo an extensive renovation that will update and enhance all guest rooms, common areas, restaurants and bars to be in line with Conrad’s refined yet contemporary brand aesthetic. The refurbishment will pay homage to Sardinia with each space featuring its own distinct design while remaining connected to one another through the use of natural materials and colours.
The hotel will have 107 guest rooms, all featuring a private garden or terrace, with the majority offering panoramic views of the entire Chia lagoon.
There will be two restaurants, a lounge and a poolside bar.
La Terrazza restaurant will feature outdoor panoramic terrace seating with an iconic view of Chia Laguna and will offer a daily breakfast buffet with a hot bar, local artisan products, an organic corner and local Sardinian specialities.
Sa Mesa, meaning “the table” in local Sardinian dialect, will be the hotel’s signature restaurant offering authentic Sardinian cuisine and an extensive selection of local wines from small local producers in an informal trattoria style setting.
Bar Bollicine will serve as the hotel’s all-day bar and lounge, where guests can enjoy an extensive collection of Champagnes and Proseccos, as well as cocktails with a modern twist.
The bar will also serve afternoon tea as well as light dishes and snacks throughout the day and will feature live evening entertainment. The hotel will also offer substantial meeting space, making it the perfect location for an exclusive meeting, special celebration or inspirational wedding.
In addition to the beach, guests can relax by the hotel’s serene pool. At the Bioaquam poolside bar, guests can enjoy light and healthy fare, freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juices or delicious summer cocktails.
The hotel’s vast Conrad Spa will span over 1,000 square meters and will include six treatment rooms, a spa bar, a yoga studio and a state-of-the-art gym.
“We’re thrilled to launch our Conrad Hotels & Resorts presence in Italy with what will be a stunning property and fantastic addition to our growing resort portfolio,” said Nils-Arne Schroeder, global brand head, Conrad Hotels & Resorts. “I have every confidence that the hotel’s bold yet locally-inspired design, extensive culinary offerings and commitment to purposeful service will create truly memorable experiences for each and every guest we welcome from next year.”
