London – Domes Resorts has entered an agreement with Goldman Sachs to acquire Casa Collective, the hospitality platform behind the Cook’s Club and Casa Cook brands, marking the next stage of international growth for the brand portfolio. Hospitality entrepreneur Remo Masala will be a shareholder too, acting as a strategic partner and creative lead in the platform. The transaction reflects increasing investor confidence in scalable, brand-led hospitality platforms and positions Casa Collective to accelerate its international footprint.

Casa Collective currently operates a portfolio of 13 hotels across key destinations, providing a strong foundation for further international expansion. This scale reflects the commitment and performance of the teams across all Casa Collective properties.

As a result of the transaction, four additional properties are expected to join the portfolio, alongside a broader set of prospective projects currently under review. The partnership is intended to support the continued expansion of the platform through franchise, management, and strategic development collaborations across leisure destinations and gateway cities worldwide.

In parallel, the group will explore the incorporation of strategic partners to support growth through a targeted property acquisition strategy.

Our ambition is to provide hotel owners and partners with a strong and reliable platform for growth while ensuring that each brand retains its unique character and guest experience.

Dr. George P. Spanos, CEO of Domes Resorts

Casa Collective will continue to operate as an independent hospitality company, preserving the distinct positioning and identity of each brand while benefiting from Domes’ operational expertise, development capabilities and access to capital.

The platform will continue to collaborate with hotel owners through flexible partnership structures, including franchise, management, development and co-investment models. Partners are expected to benefit from enhanced international distribution and marketing reach, access to development and financing opportunities, as well as operational expertise and brand development support, alongside cross-brand collaborations and shared guest communities. Existing franchise agreements, core brand teams and operating structures will remain unchanged, ensuring continuity and long-term value for hotel owners and partners.

The platform’s brand portfolio includes Cook’s Club, a vibrant social hospitality concept centred around music, food, and community; Casa Cook, a minimalist boutique concept defined by a relaxed and understated atmosphere where architecture, landscape, and community create a strong sense of place; and XIA, the latest addition to the portfolio, a newly developed family-oriented experiential hospitality concept. The platform is well positioned to capture growing demand for experience-led lifestyle hospitality, particularly among a new generation of globally mobile travellers.

Together, the brands form a complementary hospitality ecosystem designed to evolve alongside travellers across different life stages and travel preferences.

Hospitality entrepreneur Remo Masala, founder of the Berlin-based tourism innovation and brand studio Vision Alphabet, was instrumental in developing Cook’s Club and Casa Cook and will remain actively involved in the platform as a shareholder and creative partner. He has also developed XIA, which joins the portfolio as its third core brand.

Remo Masala says, “Casa Collective was never conceived as a single brand, but as a framework for different ways of experiencing hospitality. As we grow, our focus is on strengthening the clarity of each concept and further developing the idea that connects them.” He added that he is delighted to be part of this new chapter of the company he helped bring to life 10 years ago.
