Mohari Hospitality, a global investment platform with an emphasis on the luxury hospitality and lifestyle sector, and Weller Development Partners, a developer of luxury hospitality and branded residential properties, have formed a programmatic relationship. The combined resources will be for future development of luxury hospitality assets in key markets throughout North America and the Caribbean.
Mohari’s programmatic investment will bolster Weller’s existing investments, including Six Senses Napa and Six Senses Grand Bahama, and will also provide a go-forward platform to co-invest in up to $2.5 billion of luxury hospitality and mixed-use projects throughout North America and the Caribbean.
“Mohari is dedicated to partnering with organizations that share our values as well as our vision for long-term investing,” J. Allen Smith, managing partner, Mohari Hospitality, said in a statement. “Weller Development’s impressive, proven track record of developing exceptional luxury assets complements the capabilities of our firm and team well, and we look forward to combining our shared resources to continue both of our organizations’ commitments to creating best-in-class hospitality and leisure properties in key global luxury markets.”
This partnership with Mohari Hospitality marks a transformative step for Weller Development Partners as we intensify our commitment to revolutionize the branded residential space, said Marc Weller, founder and CEO of Weller Development Partners. “Mohari’s unique combination of entrepreneurial spirit and institutional experience is exactly what we look for in a strategic partner. This partnership aligns perfectly with our triple-bottom-line approach to development, and it will give us the runway we need to continue to source and develop world-class luxury hospitality projects for years to come. Our shared vision with Mohari ensures that projects like Six Senses Grand Bahama and Six Senses Napa will not only meet but exceed the aspirations of the most discerning global travelers, setting a new benchmark for luxury living.”
The synergy between Mohari and Weller extends beyond development goals, as both companies share a strong commitment to social responsibility and environmental sustainability. Mohari’s dedication to supporting local cultural heritage and natural environments in the communities in which the company invests aligns well with Weller's triple-bottom-line approach that prioritizes community engagement and environmental sustainability along with profitability, creating a partnership built on shared purpose.
Weller Development Partners, established in 2012, has a track record of success, exceeding $1.5 billion in investment and developing over two million square feet of luxury hospitality, residential, and mixed-use projects across the United States and the Bahamas.
