Curio Collection by Hilton Unveils Koko Beach Resort Ilashe, Lagos

Hilton has signed the Koko Beach Resort, Ilashe, Lagos, into the Curio Collection by Hilton.

The signing took place at the African World Hotel Conference in Nairobi on Tuesday, marking the first internationally branded resort on Nigeria’s Atlantic coastline.

The Branding and Management Agreement (BAMA) with Hilton’s Curio Collection is for a new luxury destination in Lagos, Nigeria – Koko Beach Resort Ilashe Lagos.

“Due to open in 2025, this 60-room luxury resort, developed with Outposts Investment Limited, is currently under construction on the pristine Ibeshe/Ikaare beach and represents a new dawn for Nigerian tourism, particularly under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s progressive regime.

“With stunning sea views, private villas, diverse dining options, and an array of world-class recreational facilities and amenities, this project aims to promote domestic tourism and ease pressure on our foreign exchange reserves.

“A huge thank you to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State, whose support has been instrumental in moving this project forward smoothly on the shores of Lagos,” it explained in a statement.

Hilton was represented at the signing by Mr. Patrick Fitzgibbon and KOKO Beach Hotels & Resorts by its founder, Mr. Richie Shittu.

“Lagos, get ready to explore this remarkable destination with Hilton’s globally recognised service for an incredible hospitality experience! Stay tuned for more updates,” it added.
