Rezidor to Enter Brazil with Hotel Missoni Ilha de Cajaíba

The Rezidor Hotel Group has signed the fifth Hotel Missoni in the world. The Hotel Missoni Ilha de Cajaíba, Brazil, will feature 118 guest rooms and suites and 32 villas. It is scheduled to open in early 2012.

The first Hotel Missoni opened in Edinburgh last month and further properties are scheduled to open in Kuwait, Cape Town and Oman.

Hotel Missoni is developed in co-operation with the iconic Italian fashion house Missoni as a new and distinctively different kind of lifestyle hotel.

“I’m delighted to add another unique Hotel Missoni to our portfolio with the interior design once again being led by Rosita Missoni herself,” said Kurt Ritter, President & CEO of Rezidor. “At the same time I’m proud to enter a new country – Brazil is the 59th nation where Rezidor is present and the first country outside our core region Europe, Middle East and Africa.”

Hotel Missoni Ilha de Cajaíba will be part of a luxurious, eco-friendly resort development on the island of Cajaíba, within the Bahia de Todos os Santos (All Saints’ Bay).

It is located 40 km from the international airport and the city of Salvador, which has been Brazil’s first capital city and is today the capital city of Bahia – a beautiful tropical region also know as “Heart of Brazil”.

Besides 118 rooms including 48 suites, Hotel Missoni will offer two restaurants including the signature Missoni Cucina and a Bar Missoni too.

Additionally, 32 luxurious Missoni villas with golf and sea views will be operated by the hotel.

Leisure facilities will include a private beach and swimming pool.

Guests will also have access to the island’s other facilities which will comprise a signature golf course, five other luxury hotels, a conference centre, sports centre, a marina, spas, retail shops, water sports and yacht club, and a heliport.
