Bleisure by NTL Trust - How to Achieve it Through Citizenship by Investment

Lifestyle spotlight: Bleisure by NTL Trust - How to Achieve it Through Citizenship by Investment
Indulge in the extraordinary - where business meets leisure, and luxury knows no bounds.  

In the ever-evolving landscape of luxury travel, a new lifestyle trend is taking center stage among High Net Worth Individuals (HNWI) - Bleisure. Blending business with leisure, this trend is reshaping the way HNWI approach international travel, and citizenship by investment programs in the Caribbean are emerging as the ideal path to cater to this luxurious fusion. 

Bleisure – coin of roaring 20s 

Bleisure, the seamless integration of business and leisure travel, is not just a trend; it's a lifestyle adopted by HNWI, who find the perfect blend of work and relaxation during their international journeys. What's driving this trend? The answer lies in the prolonged stays in various destinations around the world and symbiosis of work and personal life that took place in post pandemic years, and unique investment opportunities that HNWI encounter while globe-trotting. 

The HNWI Influence on Bleisure Travel 

Statistics reveal that HNWI are spending nearly 40% more time abroad than the average holidaymaker. Their preferences lean towards extended stays, much longer than the regular two weeks of private time off. It's not just about business meetings; HNWI are seeking the perfect combination of traveling and active holidays, reshaping the traditional concept of leisure. 

HNWI Investment Preferences 

When it comes to investments, HNWI often turn to real estate and government bonds. Forbes Magazine recognizes real estate as one of the top choices for these discerning investors. However, the location is key, and the benefits extend beyond financial gains. This sets the stage for the perfect intersection with the world of Bleisure. 

The Perfect Blend: Citizenship by Investment in the Caribbean 

Enter citizenship by investment programs in the Caribbean, offering a haven for HNWI seeking both investment opportunities and luxurious travel experiences. Countries such as Antigua and Barbuda, St Kitts and Nevis, Grenada, St Lucia, and Dominica have embraced this trend, providing a unique blend of increased mobility, global reach, and privacy for investors. 

NTL Trust: Transforming Bleisure Travel 

Advising us on this luxury travel revolution is NTL Trust, with 30 years of experience in the industry, a key player offering citizenship by investment programs in the Caribbean and beyond. One shining example is Antigua and Barbuda citizenship by investment program that has a distinct real estate path: Hodges Bay, a 5-star resort that is not only a paradise for travelers but also a strategic investment opportunity. This citizenship by investment offer allows investors to gain all perks that Antigua and Barbuda citizenship provides global mobility, favorable tax regime, financial security; in exchange for investment in lucrative commercial property that is world renown, and opportunity to enjoy resort perks of week-long annual vacations while ensuring a guaranteed buyback after a five-year holding period. 

Crafting the Bleisure Lifestyle 

Picture this: a week of indulgence in a world-renowned resort, the freedom to explore secluded locales available only to a few, and the opportunity to invest in prime commercial real estate. Citizenship by investment with NTL Trust encapsulates the HNWI goals for a seamless blend of luxury, investment, and travel. Privacy, increased mobility, and global reach become the building blocks for the ultimate Bleisure lifestyle. Caribbean region is the perfect middle between US East Coast, South American coast and Western Europe – you can land in St Kitts and Nevis in only three short hours after tying up your business deals in Miami or fly overnight to Antigua from London and catch a break before you continue your work tour through American continent. The Caribbean is the perfect region that has it all: accessibility, privacy and otherworldly nature. 

Conclusion 

As the worlds of business, investment, and travel converge, citizenship by investment programs in the Caribbean stand out as the key to elevating your Bleisure lifestyle. NTL Trust's offerings, exemplified by Hodges Bay, showcase how HNWI can seamlessly intertwine work, leisure, and investment in the most luxurious fashion. It's not just a journey; it's a lifestyle, and citizenship by investment is the passport to this exclusive world of possibilities.

2024's Top 5 Yachting Trends According to IYC's Sales Experts

2024's Top 5 Yachting Trends According to IYC's Sales Experts

As we near the start of a new year, we take time to reflect on the latest trends and changing landscape. To help keep your finger on the pulse, we turned to the industry's leading Sales Consultants to uncover the top 5 features for 2024. From cutting-edge technology to eco-conscious considerations, these features are not only captivating discerning buyers but are also founding perspectives for charterers.

Whether 2024 is the year you decide to purchase your first yacht or if you are already an experienced owner, we hope the insights shared below will help you understand the state of the market and make more informed decisions. 

Volume and Space

While traditionally one might expect an emphasis to be placed on sleek lines, cutting-edge speeds, and agile maneuverability, for many, increased volume and space have taken over. The allure of spacious interiors, high ceilings, and family-friendly layouts is redefining the very essence of luxury at sea.

Not merely a shift in aesthetics, the demand for this particular feature perhaps reflects a broader cultural change. As yachting becomes increasingly synonymous with family retreats and multi-generational vacations, the demand for expansive interiors and ample headroom is on the rise. Discerning buyers are seeking vessels that not only cater to the thrill of the open sea but also provide a comfortable and spacious platform for family bonding. For many buyers, the true measure of luxury lies in the freedom to explore, unwind, and create cherished moments in a voluminous and inviting space.

Advancements in yacht technology are responding to this growing trend. Smart and efficient use of space allows for larger living areas without compromising on performance. Innovations in propulsion systems and hull design ensure that spacious interiors do not offset navigation, offering a harmonious balance between comfort and performance.

This trend should also be taken into consideration for those interested in making their yacht also available for charter. Charterers are increasingly seeking vessels that provide a home-like ambiance on the water, making extended voyages more appealing and comfortable. 

Long Range and Low Consumption

A significant tide is turning towards a new era of exploration and efficiency. Many yacht buyers are increasingly setting their sights on a combination of two key attributes: extended range and fuel efficiency. 

Explorer yachts, once niche, are now at the forefront of yachting trends. “The desire to be in congested ports is becoming less appealing, with an increased appetite for remote destinations, sea-worthiness, and autonomy, impacting the client's needs and expectations of the yacht's capabilities. This has led to an all-time high of explorer yachts in-build and on order,” says Matthew Stone, IYC Sales Consultant and Managing Partner California. 

With environmental consciousness at the forefront of global conversations, yacht owners are not only looking to extend their journeys but also to do so with minimal ecological impact. “Rising fuel costs and recent high-profile ‘eco incidents’ reported in the media,” shares Michel Chryssicopoulos, IYC Global Managing Partner, “have heightened awareness about the environmental footprint of luxury travel. Expedition yachts, with their advanced propulsion systems and energy-efficient technologies, are well-positioned to allow owners to indulge their wanderlust while minimizing their carbon footprint.”

Economic considerations of those looking to maximize the utility of their yachting investment, the ability to travel farther on a tank of fuel not only enhances the yachting experience but also stretches the economic value of each voyage.

To read more about this growing trend, read our full feature on explorer yachts and the work our partner, Cantiere delle Marche, are doing.

Wellness & Fitness Facilities

 “As clients increasingly view yachting as a lifestyle choice, the integration of wellness and fitness facilities becomes a compelling and necessary addition to superyachts,” says Richard Gray, IYC Head of Sales UK. These additions offer a dedicated space for physical activity, relaxation, and rejuvenation. Fitness centers equipped with state-of-the-art exercise equipment cater to guests who prioritize maintaining their health and fitness routines while at sea. 

Wellness spaces, such as spa facilities, meditation rooms, and yoga decks, provide a holistic approach to overall well-being. Regular access to fitness facilities supports physical health, while spa and relaxation spaces contribute to mental well-being. Such considerations align with a contemporary understanding that true luxury is in the investment made in one's own health, making wellness facilities on superyachts a vital component in the pursuit of a fulfilling and balanced lifestyle.  

In addition, the incorporation of features such as juice bars, cold and hot rooms, and more highlight the commitment to comprehensive well-being. “Cold plunges and contra-flow swimming pools are also proving to be desired indulgences on board,” says D.J. Kiernan, IYC US Commercial Director. These wellness approaches represent a departure from conventional deck designs, transforming the yacht into a sanctuary that promotes health, relaxation, and balance in a way that exceeds the accustomed options on superyachts.

AV/IT

Staying connected is no longer a luxury but a necessity. With the rise of new satellite internet providers, it is indeed becoming more and more important for owners to be as well connected as possible for both work and leisure. As such, TV, HI-FI, Wi-FI in all areas including external areas are becoming as important as technical design features. 

Starlink, with its constellation of low Earth orbit satellites, stands out as a necessary luxury on board. Starlink's global coverage and cutting-edge technology ensure seamless communication, entertainment, and work capabilities. With reduced signal travel time, and its potential to offer more consistent connectivity in challenging environments, Starlink promises high-speed, low-latency internet access even in the most remote corners of the ocean.

Manufacturer Reputation

“In a world where the number of new build construction shipyards is increasing year on year, clients are looking for their yachts to have distinguished features and a sense of respect within the industry,” says IYC Sales Consultant, Jamie Swaine. Discerning clients continue to set their sights on vessels delivered by major Northern European shipyards, with a secondary nod towards esteemed Italian builders when budget considerations come into play. This strategic inclination isn't merely a matter of prestige; it's a calculated move driven by the desire to safeguard and potentially enhance the retained value of these vessels.

Yachts with Dutch and German pedigree have long held a revered status. The commitment to precision, innovation, and unparalleled craftsmanship these yards promise contributes significantly to their enduring allure. As yachts age gracefully, the continued respect for the meticulous build quality synonymous with Northern European shipyards serves as a hallmark, maintaining and, in some cases, even appreciating the vessel's intrinsic value over time.

Some clients turn their attention to major Italian builds who offer an appeal for budgets that don’t stretch as far, without compromising on elegance and functionality. While potentially more accessible in terms of cost, Italian-built yachts still carry the legacy of fine craftsmanship and a commitment to quality that resonates with those who seek a balance between value and prestige.

Amidst these established maritime giants, a rising star emerges —Turkish shipyards. The increasing prominence of Turkish builders is the result of a deliberate pursuit of excellence in design, engineering, and construction. As Turkish shipyards continue to invest in state-of-the-art facilities and attract top-tier talent, their yachts gain recognition for their quality, innovation, and competitive pricing.

Limone - The Gem of the Ligurian Alps Plans Magical Winter Experiences

Limone - The Gem of the Ligurian Alps Plans Magical Winter Experiences

Winter is coming, and the start of the skiing season with it. Limone, an eco-friendly alpine pearl in between the Maritime and the Ligurian Alps, is once again making preparations to lavish all its visitors and locals with unique, exquisite experiences.

For sports aficionados, slopes are scheduled to open on December 8th with some novelties and some old comforts: the Riserva Bianca has recently signed a new collaboration with Ski Data, a new ticketing operator partnered with Telepass and Telepass Pay. A modern ticket platform will be installed alongside additional features such as brand-new turnstiles and automatic cash machines to ease the quality of skiers' practice.  

To accompany all your outdoor activity needs, Bottero Ski has replenished its catalog with a vast selection of high-quality equipment for skiing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing. From the best trademarks, as well as providing both a personal selection of the latest must-haves and the stylish comforts of their luxury collection.

For those seeking a more personal experience of the Italian Alps during all seasons, skichaletslimone.com has several chalet opportunities available for sale in the exclusive luxury residential development Villa Almellina Estate, conveniently located 5 minutes walking distance to the village and ski slopes. The chalets for sale at Villa Alemellina Estate offer breathtaking surrounding mountain views as well as luxurious amenities tailored for your well-being. 

A new concept design is now available for the creation of an exceptionally large chalet, Chalet Grand Veranda. This new concept design connects two chalets to create an ultra-spacious 5-6 bedroom chalet, with an indoor swimming pool and private SPA, game/TV room, and 3 garages for a total of 4 parking spaces. If you are looking to buy a chalet this winter, Holiday Home Chalet No.2 is available for sale fully furnished, equipped, and ready for immediate occupancy.

Limone is loaded with opportunities for relaxation and absolute comfort. Chalet Morel is a unique hotel of seven rooms one different from the others located at 1600 meters — fully immersed in the peaceful silence of the mountain — furthermore equipped with a lovely terrace and a large spa.

There are several culinary attractions to satisfy even the most exigent clients such as the White Lounge Restaurant of the Fiocco di Neve Relais, which has prepared a new gourmet experience to enjoy a combination of the traditional local cuisine and enchanting exotic flavours from all over the world. Moreover, we can boast an incredible Michelin Star* restaurant featured in the Michelin Guide: Restaurant Nazionale, full of gastronomic treasures locally sourced from the valley.

What can we expect event-wise? As with every winter in Limone, the bemusing torchlight descent is going to be held on December 30th, at high altitude, followed by the children’s version on January 3rd, a night in which there will be music and fireworks as well. Street bands are moreover supposed to play on the Twelfth Night in Via Roma.

So how to get to Limone?

The Col de Tende Road Tunnel, unfortunately, is still not operational, but there is an alternate route through Savona that will get you there. Tourist train shuttles to Limone from Tende (only 65 km from Monaco, and with a large free parking space in front of the train station) are scheduled to begin on December 10th and run from Tende to Limone and return 12 times per day (currently first train is scheduled to run at 08.40 in the morning (last run at 17.54) from Tende to Limone, with the last return from Limone at 17.00).

Book gala tickets online here

Christian has over 20 years of industry experience both in television and film having worked in most departments over the years concentrating on production, from editing to producing. As a founder of Global Environment Media his work focuses on environmental issues.

Dedicated father, husband and businessman, we managed to find some time during Christian’s busy schedule to learn more about the inspiration behind the initiatives and the development of GEM.

What was the driving force and initiative behind your decision to set-up Global Environment Media?

About three years ago it became apparent that when looking into information available online and offline there was such an abundance of conflicting information and unsubstantiated information. It was at this point we all recognised that our environment is a monumental concern to all of us and we could actually do something about it through media. This is when we decided to consolidate and unite as many foundations institutes and NGOs as possible and bring their information into a hub and use a mixed media architecture to deliver the information for easy digestion.

How is the GEMA Foundation related to GEM?

Global Environment Movement Association was created to help in the production and diffusion of information and content in support of all our partners. The GEM platform is one of the diffusion outlets of which the production content created could be diffused and digested by all our subscribers and viewers. As a TV channel GEM will be diffused globally over all platforms to have the largest coverage area.

How can locals and businesses in the Monaco / French Riviera region and across Europe help the growth and development of GEM?

GEM is run as a media platform and as such we partner with companies that are environmental in their approach and have sustainability as a focus moving forward. They show their support by having a presence on our platform and channel and in turn we are able to show their good efforts in moving forward responsibly.

What are the challenges you face in charitable funding for the GEMA Foundation and how are you dealing with that?

Due to recent world events raising money and attention for environment is key but yet as a media company we have had a blow due to the tightening of budget this year. Raising donations for GEMA has been challenging and I believe the tides are turning as we come out of this pandemic. Word of mouth media and social media play a big role in obtaining donations.

Lastly, your father was an avid supporter of numerous charities and foundations, in which sector was he mostly connected with and why?

My father was an advocate for children and as ambassador for UNICEF he spent the better part of 25 years raising awareness and monies for such charities. It was through him that I developed a strong desire and need to be socially responsible in all my actions and businesses. There is nothing more noble then advocating for those who cannot for themselves. From children to animals to our environment as a whole - if you are able to To do something to help and you must.

Tamas L’Orant

Tamás Lóránt is talented craftsman who has discovered a unique way to repurpose vintage timepieces and preserve family heritage while doing so. By first adapting his great-grandfather's gold pocket watch, he not only created a wristwatch of rare beauty, he established a brand which is now sought after globally.

What is unique? Like ‘iconic’ or ‘exclusive’, it’s a word that is losing its meaning. Every fashion item is ‘exclusive’. Every car ‘iconic’. Every watch ‘unique’. And yet its not.

But Tamás Lóránt has a different concept of unique and his creations make every piece literally irreplaceable.

LABAILS

Alexandre Labails discovered the world of watchmaking relatively late in 2016 at the age of 25. However, it was a discovery impossible to ignore as it resonated in him. A strong enough resonance to make him quit everything less than one year later to begin the incredible journey of building his own brand.

WatchPro Riviera is one of the first premiere’s of this incredible new Haute Horology brand, which will feature a low-frequency tourbillon, a high-frequency chronograph and an innovative, patent-pending exclusive energy management optimization system for watches with complications.

Temerity by LABAILS is an extraordinary timepiece. The tremendous complexities of the movement and the sapphire case generate an extremely difficult and long production process, which requires the deployment of the best watchmaking expertise throughout the process. Therefore, only 10 pieces will be produced and only upon request.
