From WikiCover

Announced August 13, 2007, Wailea, the debut property in Starwood Capital Group's Baccarat Hotels and Resorts and Residences collection received an extraordinary response with $300 million in sales at a gala launch party last week in Wailea, Hawaii. The world class, five-star beachfront resort will exemplify the Baccarat brand's 240-year tradition of perfection and luxury with equally flawless service, combining exclusive personal services and signature Baccarat aesthetics. The fifteen-acre coastal property will consist of 193 one-to-four bedroom residences, ranging from 980 to 3,330 square feet, with breathtaking ocean views from each unit.

The Baccarat Wailea reflects the surrounding environment harmonized with the flawless execution and sublime beauty that the brand has come to represent over the past two centuries. Guests and residents will experience the Baccarat lifestyle through the distinct blend of culture, service and aesthetics that will radiate through each property. Future anticipated locations will include breathtaking destinations in the Caribbean, Europe, and the Far East.

Baccarat is about the quality of light and there can be no more beautiful place to showcase the brand's identity than in the sunlight of Hawaii. For over 240 years, Baccarat has incorporated the elements of fire, sand and water to create iconic crystal, lighting and, more recently, jewelry pieces. These elements will be woven throughout the Wailea experience from an elegant series of shimmering pools with dramatic ocean views to a beautiful beach as well as fire elements throughout the property. The Baccarat Wailea's meticulous attention to detail will feature personalized concierge services taken to a new extreme and tailored to indulge each individual resident and guest.

Wailea's natural surroundings are mirrored in the property's exquisite exteriors, created by the architectural firm of HKS Hill Glazier Studio. Interiors by designer Yabu Pushelberg are a blend of Hawaiian elegance and Baccarat sparkle. Select residences feature private plunge pools, shower grottos, vaulted living rooms and signature Baccarat items. Property offerings will include a signature B Bar, excellent dining, and a world class fitness, spa, and rejuvenation center.

Wailea Baccarat is expected to open in 2010.

The Kobayashi Group is developing the property with Starwood.
