In collaboration with GBR, RLA Global is proud to be actively engaged on-site in Albania, assessing opportunities for an exciting new luxury resort featuring a branded residence component.

Albania, with its 2.8 million population, remains one of the Mediterranean’s last undiscovered markets—rich in culture, history, and stunning locations. 

RLA Global and GBR would like to extend heartfelt thanks to Hotel Melia for their exceptional hospitality, especially Luis Elizondo and the team, who made our stay both productive and enjoyable. 

The country’s market potential continues to attract international investors, with developments like the Duress Yacht and Marina by Eagle Hills (backed by Emaar) reaffirming confidence in Albania’s future as a sought-after destination. 

“Albania represents a rare opportunity for luxury developments. Being on-site allows us to fully grasp its potential and collaborate effectively with local and international stakeholders,” said Roger Allen, Group CEO of RLA Global. 

We are proud to drive progress and shape iconic, sustainable destinations.

If you are interested in resort developments or sustainable solutions, let’s collaborate to bring visionary ideas to life. 

Reach out to us (contactus@rlaglobal.com) today to explore exciting opportunities together.
