Ventana Big Sur, an
Alila Resort, Set to Reopen
in
Fall 2017 Following Multimillion-Dollar Re-imagination
International lifestyle company Two Roads Hospitality today
announced the expansion of Alila Hotels & Resorts in North America.
Singapore-based Alila, which became part of the Two Roads Hospitality portfolio
in June 2015, will open its first North American resort property in
California’s fabled Big Sur in fall 2017. The launch brings the brand’s
commitment to innovative design and luxury, crafted artisanship and
personalized hospitality to the U.S. market.
“The introduction of Alila Hotels & Resorts to the North
American market is a significant milestone in Two Roads’ international growth
strategy,” said Jamie Sabatier, Chief Executive Officer of Two Roads
Hospitality. “As a company that is long synonymous with opening resorts in
spectacular, bucket-list destinations, it couldn’t be more fitting that Alila’s
U.S. debut will be along the iconic Big Sur coastline. This opening will
strengthen the global footprint of the brand and further cement its position as
a luxury leader in the boutique and lifestyle sector.”
The fall 2017 opening of Ventana Big Sur, an Alila Resort,
marks the debut of a re-imagined luxury resort experience. Boasting a
multimillion-dollar comprehensive revitalization, Ventana Big Sur will provide
an intimate, immersive experience with features including 59 refreshed guest
rooms, suites and villas, a full-service Spa Alila, two enhanced outdoor pools
with a new infinity-edge hot tub and outdoor Japanese hot baths. Additionally,
The Sur House restaurant, with a new concept and expanded ocean-view patio,
will offer majestic views of the Pacific Ocean.
“Since the Post family settled in Big Sur at the end of the
19th century, Big Sur has represented the confluence of ocean, forest,
mindfulness and artistry un-paralleled anywhere else in the world. I couldn’t
be more excited for the opening of Ventana Big Sur to once again bring
travelers back to this special part of the world”, said John Pritzker,
co-chairman of Two Roads Hospitality and founding partner and director of Geolo
Capital. “We look forward to shining a bright light on the new Ventana Big Sur
experience that celebrates the mystic beauty of Big Sur.”
Ventana’s resort-wide enhancements also will include a new
Social House with three unique lifestyle spaces for relaxing and connecting;
the new 7,000-square-foot Ocean Meadow Lawn for events and celebrations; a new
Glass House Gallery; a new Alila Experience Program featuring discovery-based
guest activities; and the debut of a luxury camping experience — Redwood Canyon
Glampsites — in the resort’s 20-acre redwood-canopied forest.
Complimentary activities include daily guided walks through
the serene landscape, yoga, Tai Chi and Pilates classes and nightly wine
tastings and cheese pairings. An on-site experience coordinator is available to
arrange further adventures.
“At Alila, we strive to deliver holistic experiences that go
beyond the typical and traditional, combining transformative programming with
world-class service and amenities,” said Frederic Flageat-Simon, Chief
Executive Officer, Two Roads Hospitality Asia. “Unveiling the brand in the U.S.
is an exciting step for our company, and we look forward to introducing Alila’s
innovative hospitality approach to our North American guests.”
