Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts has announced its expansion plans for 2022 and beyond and has a total of over 50 new projects under planning or development stages.
The company plans to open four properties this year in Tamarindo (Mexico) and the US cities of Fort Lauderdale, Nashville and Minneapolis. This comes after the opening of properties in Napa Valley, New Orleans and Italy last year.
There is also a strong focus on residential properties with plans to open three standalone Private Residences – these are properties that are not connected to a hotel or a resort. The collection which currently includes properties in London San Francisco and Los Angeles will see new residences in Dubai, Lake Austin and Marrakech.
On the sustainability side, Four Seasons plans to remove all single-use plastic from the guest experience by the end of the year.
There will also be new digital features on the Four Seasons app following a 300 per cent increase in use since 2019. This will include the introduction of a mobile key and mobile payments along with enhancements to the restaurant and bar digital experience.
