THE AMBASSADOR OF ADVENTURE LUCA FRANCO, CEO & FOUNDER OF LUXURY FRONTIERS, WILL JOIN US ONCE AGAIN IN MAURITIUS 2024 AND IS A LOYAL SUPPORTER OF THE EVENT. IT’S BEEN A BUSY SIX MONTHS FOR THE COMPANY, WHICH HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN A NUMBER OF EXCITING NEW PROJECTS, AS WELL AS WINNING SEVERAL INDUSTRY AWARDS.
WHAT HAVE WE BEEN UP TO AT LUXURY FRONTIERS SINCE WE LAST SPOKE IN MONTENEGRO IN MAY 2023? Since May 2023, Luxury Frontiers has been making incredible strides. We’ve successfully secured new investments that have positioned us for an exciting phase of growth and innovation. Luxury Frontiers 3.0 is on the horizon, and we can’t wait to reveal more about our fully vertically integrated ecosystem and future plans. We started working on new projects with Six Senses in Napa Valley, USA, with Oberoi in Nepal. The recognition we’ve received, like the Hospitality Design Award and AHEAD Americas award for Naviva, has been truly heartwarming. We’ve also been honored with the Radical
Wilderness Usawa Serengeti
Innovation Award for the second time, thanks to The Turtle Bungalow. Additionally, we’re thrilled to have been selected as finalists at the World Architecture Festival. It’s been a journey filled with excitement since May. WHICH RECENT PROJECTS HAVE BEEN ESPECIALLY EXCITING FOR THE LUXURY FRONTIERS TEAM? Wilderness Usawa Serengeti - This project allows guests to witness the awe-inspiring Great Migration up close and personal. The mobile tents offer a 360-degree view of the Serengeti, making guests feel like they’re sleeping on the open plains. It’s a truly exceptional way to experience nature.
