Kamah Hotels & Resorts, an upcoming luxury and wellness brand, has announced a partnership with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. Together, they have signed a $70 million deal to develop four new hotels—one in Dubai and three in India—under the Trademark Collection by Wyndham. This partnership was formalized at the Future Hospitality Summit 2024 in Dubai and marks a significant expansion for Kamah’s portfolio, developed by Fine Acers Group in India and Global Branded Residences (GBR) internationally.

The exclusive signing ceremony was attended by dignitaries from both companies, including Dimitris Manikis, President of EMEA, and Panos Loupasis, Market Managing Director of TMEA, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts; Govind Mundra, Head of Development for the Middle East and Africa at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts; and Dinesh Yadav, Director of Fine Acers & GBR.

"After our successful collaboration with Wyndham Grand Jaipur last year, we are thrilled to strengthen our partnership with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts further," said Dinesh Yadav, Managing Director of Fine Acers Group & GBR.

"This partnership will launch four hotels under the Kamah brand, offering an exclusive luxury and wellness experience under the Trademark Collection by Wyndham. The first set of properties are located in Dubai, Coorg, Jawai, and Udaipur, with further expansions planned in global destinations like North America, Australia, and Europe, as well as prominent Indian locations such as Goa, Lonavala, and Dharamshala."

Imran Khan, International Director of KAMAH, highlights a substantial gap in the wellness hospitality sector that requires attention. He suggests that for the industry to flourish truly, leading brands should prioritize creating strategic partnerships to drive growth and innovation.

KAMAH has chosen several important places for its Lifestyle, Luxury, and Wellness Resorts. These places include Coorg, known for its beautiful natural surroundings and peaceful atmosphere; Jawai, a rugged area famous for its wildlife and immersive natural experiences; Udaipur, the heritage-rich "City of Lakes"; and Dubai, a global centre of luxury and advanced wellness.

The newly announced properties include the Kamah Hotel in Al Jaddaf Waterfront, Dubai, and three Indian resorts: Kamah Resorts Coorg, Kamah Resorts Jawai, and Kamah Resorts Udaipur. These hotels will be developed under a branded residences model, giving investors a unique opportunity to purchase units in an internationally branded hotel and resort in popular leisure destinations.

The four properties will be branded as part of the Trademark Collection by Wyndham, a collection of midscale to upscale properties that maintain their individual character. This partnership introduces the Trademark Collection by Wyndham in the UAE for the first time, marking a significant milestone for Kamah and Wyndham’s expansion strategies.

"We are pleased to announce our continued partnership with Fine Acers Group and the introduction of the Trademark Collection by Wyndham to the UAE market," said Govind Mundra, Head of Development for the Middle East & Africa at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. "This marks the beginning of our partnership, with plans to develop additional properties and a focus on upholding Wyndham's ‘Owners First’ policy. Udaipur and Coorg are already established tourist destinations in India, and Jawai is emerging as a popular destination in Rajasthan."
