Mixta Africa welcomes Newmark to Nigeria with West Africa’s best-kept secret; Lakowe Lakes, as its newest portfolio in Luxury Estates. Newmark will manage the sprawling estate’s comprehensive hospitality and leisure portfolio that includes short-stay accommodations, developed to suit both the leisure traveler and the business executive. This includes privately owned villas placed within a rental pool, the Cottages, and the Corporate Lodge which through planned expansion phases will grow to approximately 150 keys. The development and management of the residential area of the estate which covers sales and construction of homes, however, will remain under the purview of Mixta Africa.
Established in 2007, Newmark has its roots in Cape Town, South Africa, and continues to expand throughout Africa. Prior to signing up Lakowe Lakes, Newmark has the historic Hazendal Wine Estate in the Cape Winelands and Future Found Sanctuary on the southern slopes of Cape Town’s Table Mountain in Johannesburg in its portfolio, with plans to launch five-star boutique hotels in South Africa’s White River region where it will represent a luxury country manor.
Beyond South Africa, the group will be taking a third hotel in Mauritius under its wings.
The hospitality company’s experienced team will also manage the plethora of sports and leisure offerings including the Lakowe Lakes Golf Course, an 18-hole par-72 championship course that is considered the finest in West Africa. The Revivo Sports Centre which includes a swimming pool, tennis and squash courts, fishing, cycling, and hiking trails as well as outdoor event spaces positioned on a 2000-sqm island.
“Entering the West African tourism and hospitality market with this announcement that the blue-chip property Lakowe Lakes Golf and Country Estate joins Newmark is a significant growth point for the company. My team and I very much look forward to operating and marketing this awesome destination golf and luxury villa estate”, comments Neil Markovitz, CEO of Newmark Hotels and Reserves.
