Kerzner International Holdings Ltd., a developer and operator of resorts and luxury hotels, has entered into an agreement with private equity fund BK Partners to develop and operate two new resorts on the Pacific Coast of Mexico.
The resorts include One&Only Mandarina, located in Riveria Nayarit, approximately 50 kilometres north of Puerto Vallarta’s airport. Mandarina has 145 luxurious villas as well as private residential estates, world-class farm-to-table dining and original retail options, says Kerzner.
The beachfront resort will maximize the dramatic rain forest location, with each secluded villa. A wide variety of accommodations will include Ocean Cliff Villas, Tree House Villas and Mountain Villas, all placing an emphasis on privacy and beautiful vistas.
Kerzner will also develop One&Only Santa Maria de Xala, which will be part of a new 1200-hectare development located approximately 100 kilometres south of Puerto Vallarta’s international airport. The hacienda resort will command 8 kilometres of impressive beach front. The resort has 75 luxury villas and suites with private pools. The development will include a prestigious One&Only residential component.
“The development of these two One&Only resorts follows BK Partners' investment strategy focused on the acquisition and development of high end flagship hotels and resorts located in Mexico and the Caribbean,” says Francis Muûls, managing director, BK Partners.
