ORIGIN & THE FUTURE
Born from the idea that most real estate scarce metropolises require additional hospitality accommodation and event space, thereby, the company founders conceived of the floating yacht hotel to satisfy this demand. With over 200 million euros invested in research and development, the commitment of the company vision is brave and unyielding. Currently comprising of two magnificent first-class properties in London (140 rooms) and Gibraltar (189 rooms), the company is primed for multi-city expansion developments in North America, Europe, Middle East and Asia.
