Tourism in Portugal is showing clear signs of recovery with investors
looking towards the hotel market, including Arrow Global Portugal, which
acquired 75% of Details Hotels & Resorts, the group that currently manages
seven hotel units in the areas of Albufeira and Carvoeiro (municipality of
Lagoa).
According to a report by idealista/news this is the first
deal concluded by Arrow in Portugal, with a view to growing its hotel
portfolio.
“This is the moment to take advantage of the opportunity for
aggregation that the Portuguese hotel market offers, similar to what has
happened internationally. The objective is to grow the portfolio under
management, with a planned investment in hospitality that could amount to 500
million euros over the next five years", said Francisco Moser, hospitality
CEO of Arrow Global Portugal.
The hotels that this will apply to in the Algarve include, Vale
da Lapa (Carvoeiro, Lagoa); Vale D’Rei (Carvoeiro, Lagoa); Aqua Pedra dos Bicos
(Albufeira); Hotel Califónia (Albufeira); Topaz Vibe (Albufeira); Velamar
(Albufeira) and Bertolina (Albufeira).
With the conclusion of the acquisition, Arrow Global
Portugal becomes the majority partner of Details Hotels & Resorts (75%),
with the remaining 25% of the group's capital remaining in the hands of the
current partners, keeping João Costa, COO of the hotel group.
