Golden Tulip Hospitality Group has signed the management contract for its second Tulip Residence worldwide. The construction of the resort in Saidia, Morocco is expected to be completed in October 2009.

Tulip Residences Saïdia will have 234 spacious residences ranging from 2 to 4 bedrooms options to accommodate up to 1000 guests.

The resort will feature a Moroccan-style Clubhouse, 3 outdoor lagoon pools set amongst landscaped gardens, a themed restaurant and a café-bar, tennis courts and an amphitheatre for family entertainment.

The resort will be located in the new leisure destination of Mediterrania-Saïdia on the northeast Mediterranean coast of Morocco, a 30 minute drive from Oujda International Airport.

The 7,000,000 sq m area boasts 6 kilometres of unspoilt beaches, three 18 hole golf courses, a marina with over 1300 berths, 9 hotels, 3000 residential and touristic properties, conference facilities and a large range of sports, shopping, dining and entertainment options. 

“Tulip Residences are an ideal alternative to hotel rooms as they offer the leisure traveller fully-serviced, tastefully furnished properties that combine luxury and elegance with all the home-like comforts and services you could wish for. Saïdia is a fantastic location with immense potential so we are proud to choose this location to launch our first Tulip Residences concept outside Europe,” commented Hans Kennedie, president and CEO of Golden Tulip Hospitality Group.

“We believe that Golden Tulip has a wealth of expertise in terms of service delivery, operations and reservations capacity. Their intuitive Tulip Residences brand is a perfect fit for Saïdia as it offers flexibility, exclusivity and luxury – the three cornerstones of the Le Jardin de Fleur brand,” added David Woodward, director of Hotel & Commercial Operations at Property Logic and developer of Le Jardin de Fleur Resorts in Saïdia.-TradeArabia News Service
