Four Seasons was the natural choice for us as they share our commitment to elegance, unrivalled service, and luxury. They have a long history, a strong and undiluted brand, and an uncompromising dedication to the highest standards.”

“In Arqaam Capital we have found the ideal partner for our entry into Croatia, one who believes in the culture of Four Seasons and shares our values,” said J. Allen Smith, President and CEO, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts. “Arqaam’s long-term vision, combined with their extensive experience in emerging markets and project development are key to positioning this project for success.”

Continued Smith, “Croatia is one of Europe’s fastest growing tourism markets and a highly sought-after leisure destination for discerning global travellers. We look forward to working together with Arqaam, to create a world class property in Hvar.”

The resort will have its own private bay, multiple swimming pools and private infinity pools, a world-class spa and fitness centre, a selection of restaurants, cafes, bars and retail boutiques, along with conference and banqueting facilities.
