Total Investment (incl. acquisition + capex): €23,000,000

Minimal Participation: €200,000
Expected Investment Period: 5 Years
Expected Total ROE: ~100%
Expected Yearly ROE (IRR): ~20%

Project Overview:

This project converts a municipally pre-cleared, riverfront heritage estate into a 70-key luxury hotel operated by a global flag. The plan blends restored architecture with focused wellness and culinary programming to capture premium ADR and event demand along the Douro.

Phase 1 – Acquisition & Setup: €4M equity for purchase of holding company, transaction fees, and taxes.

  Phase 2 – Development: €20M capex (approx. €10M equity + €10M bank debt at ~50% LTV, 1.5–2% spread over Euribor).

Phase 3 – Stabilization: ramp-up to ~70 keys under a global flag; targeted ADR €550, occupancy ~65%, GOP margin 40–45%.

Exit (Year 5): strategic hotel operator or institutional buyer; targeted EV ~€40M (~€580k per key).

Exit (Year 5): strategic hotel operator or institutional buyer; targeted EV ~€40M (~€580k per key).

Why This Works:

Scarce riverfront location: only a handful of PIP-approved hotel sites with private frontage remain in the Douro Valley.

Discount to comps:

○ Six Senses Douro Valley – ~€1M/key (market ref. 2023 sale)

○ Essência do Douro – ~€580k/key → ~40% discount to benchmark.

Risk-mitigated build:

○ “No permits, no payment” escrow structure.

○ Liquidated damages for contractor delay.

○ Development contingent on operator flag (“no flag, no start”).
