Tennis legend Rafael Nadal is expanding his business ventures, as the Spaniard plans to open a branch of his hotel brand, Zel, in Mexico.

The former World No.1 founded Zel in December 2022, marking his first step into the world of hospitality. After opening it's first location in Mallorca, Spain on July 1, 2023, the brand plans to expand and open a second location in Mexico in 2025.

Zel aims to introduce Mediterranean culture to Mexican beaches

The hotel will be located in Sayulita, a town on the Mexican Pacific coast, and will be known as 'The Zel Sayulita'. It will feature 145 luxurious rooms built around a large central patio and restaurants.

A patio is a staple of Zel Hotels, and architect Alvaro Sans told Architectural Digest this was essential to representing the Mediterranean lifestyle and offering a space for socializing.
