Tivoli will make Spanish debut at ex-Sheraton site

by | 10 Oct 2022 | Hotel Projects, Projects, Refurbishments

Minor Hotels brand Tivoli Hotels & Resorts is to appear in Spain for the first time with the overhaul of a former Sheraton property in the Canary Islands.

The luxury La Caleta Resort, located in Tenerife’s Costa Adeje is scheduled to relaunch as Tivoli La Caleta Resort in spring next year.

Resort refurbishment

The resort, which is currently closed and undergoing refurbishment, will reopen with 284 guestrooms, including 20 suites, four restaurants, two bars and 10 meeting rooms, as well as three swimming pools, a fitness centre, plus tennis and paddle tennis courts.

The property will also be home to a luxurious Anantara Spa, a space where ancient spa and wellness traditions are combined with modern techniques.

Grand gastronomy

Following the renovation, the resort will relaunch offering service to Tivoli’s standards, where gastronomy will play a key role. The brand will continue its collaboration with well-known Portuguese chef Olivier da Costa for the development and implementation of new concepts through the restaurants the hotel will offer.

The first of them, Yakuza, specialises in fusion food between East and West. It proposes exclusive creations that combine Mediterranean flavours with the oriental tradition of sushi and sashimi. Guilty will be another of the restaurants, presenting a ‘casual food’ offer in a young and cosmopolitan space. The last of the concepts will be the classic Beach Club, which will incorporate dishes of the island’s gastronomy in its menu.

Luxury benchmark

Currently with a portfolio of 16 properties in four countries, Tivoli is owned by Minor Hotels and managed by the NH Hotel Group division in Europe. Tivoli La Caleta Resort is aimed at becoming the new benchmark for luxury tourism in Tenerife and as part of Minor Hotels’ global portfolio of over 530 properties.

The brand’s pipeline includes two Asian sites: Tivoli Hangzhou in China, adding 166 keys to the portfolio by the end of this year; and the 110-room Tivoli Bilaj Al Jazayer Bahrain Resort coming to the Middle Eastern island nation in Q1 2024.

Strategic step

Ramón Aragonés, CEO of NH Hotel Group, commented: “During this year, the combined and simultaneous commitment to leisure destinations and business travel destinations has strengthened the recovery capacity of NH Hotel Group.

“The entry of Tivoli Hotels & Resorts into Spain, with such a characteristic resort as La Caleta in Tenerife, allows us to take a strategic step forward, adding this destination to those already existing for the brand in Portugal, Brazil, Qatar and China. Going forward, expanding the footprint of this brand through top quality resorts will be a priority for us.”
