Auberge Resorts Collection to Manage Grace Hotels

MILL VALLEY, CA—Auberge Resorts LLC has entered into a strategic partnership with the Libra Group, owners of Grace Hotels. Through this partnership, Auberge will add the five Grace properties in Europe and the northeastern United States to the Auberge Resorts Collection portfolio. The existing Grace properties and those in the pipeline will be branded under the Auberge Resorts Collection name and managed by the Auberge team.

In the next 90 days, the Grace properties in Mykonos and Santorini, Greece, along with the Mayflower Inn & Spa in Washington, CT; White Barn Inn & Spa in Kennebunk, ME; and the Vanderbilt Hotel in Newport, RI, will join Auberge Resorts Collection. Over the next few years, the collection will scale even further with the addition of other properties that are under development in Athens, Kalamata, Kea and a second resort in Santorini, Greece; Marrakech, Morocco; Buenos Aires, Argentina; as well as St. Moritz, Switzerland.

As part of the agreement, the Libra Group will have a strategic interest in Auberge Resorts Collection, establishing a relationship between the two family-owned companies.

Plans are underway to integrate the properties into the Auberge Resorts Collection and welcome the Grace employees into the Auberge family over the next three months.
