One year from now, Club Med will be unveiling its first resort in South Africa: Club Med South Africa Beach & Safari. Located on the Dolphin Coast, north of Durban, in the province of KwaZulu-Natal, the all-inclusive resort will combine a beach getaway with an immersive safari.

The local representation deal between La Collection and Greece’s largest hotel brand, Grecotel, is the start of a “fabulous opportunity” to expand the hotelier’s position in the Australian market, says Sofia Grigoratou, Director of Sales for the company. Visiting Sydney and Melbourne from her Athens headquarters, Grigoratou sat exclusively with LATTE this week to discuss the new partnership at length.

La Collection, the Australian representative specialising in pure luxury hotels and resorts, has added to its curated portfolio with the addition of three exceptional Grecotel properties.
