HOTEL VENTURES

Brazil is entering an exciting chapter in tourism with growing demand for affordable stays and boutique experiences that reflect the country’s culture and energy. I see this as a unique opportunity to create hotels that balance accessibility, comfort, and design.

My hospitality journey began with Smart Hotel in 2024, a 39-room budget hotel in Minas Gerais that offers travellers a simple, welcoming, and practical stay. Building on that success, I am expanding into new projects:

IDALIA (Launching 2026) – A budget hotel in Minas Gerais designed to deliver quality and affordability for a growing regional market.

Winnie by the Sea (Launching 2029) – Two boutique suites in Cidade Arte, Rio de Janeiro, offering an intimate coastal escape in one of Brazil’s most innovative new neighbourhoods.

Each venture is part of a broader vision: to grow a portfolio of hotels not only in emerging markets like Brazil, but worldwide, while delivering guest-focused experiences that travellers will remember.
