Crystal Lagoons expands in Europe with new PAL™ projects

25 February, 2022 / News

Around the world and particularly in Europe, PAL™ projects are becoming increasingly attractive because of their disruptive innovation that brings a piece of the ocean to their cities. This phenomenon is similar to what happened in England 200 years ago, when London brought a piece of the forest to the city by introducing the first urban parks.

Now, these developments cause a new revolution, this time in the historical capitals of Eastern Europe, Prague, Warsaw, Bucharest and Budapest, which will have something unthinkable for cities with harsh climates: beach life.

It was highlighted by the prestigious economic newspaper El Mercurio, which in its report shows that PAL™ developments are valued by all types of urban styles, even in cities with diverse geographical dimensions and adverse climatic characteristics, which today are corrected with the new Hot Reef™ technology, which allows bathing areas with heated water.

These Eastern European projects will be ultra-luxury and offer high-end entertainment. The first projects will be developed in Romania, north of Bucharest, and are due to start construction in the second quarter of 2022. Surrounding the lagoon will be a 5-star hotel with 300 rooms, 300 luxury apartments for rent, office and commercial space, and other services such as restaurants, cinemas, educational centers, retailers, trade fair venues, outdoor terraces and other attractions.

The environmentally friendly nature of Crystal Lagoons’ technology was key to sealing these contracts that aim for high standards in carbon neutrality. PAL™ projects are valued for their promise of reducing the global carbon footprint (14 million tons of CO2 per year) by over 40% through the reduction of travel to coastal destinations by about 50%.

In the same way, Crystal Lagoons is expanding steadily throughout Europe and is in advanced negotiations in Italy (Milan, Verona, Rome and Naples), Ukraine, Portugal, Greece and Georgia. The company has active operations in Turkey and Spain. The latter market has the most advanced projects in Costa del Sol, Murcia, while there is an upcoming PAL™ development on the outskirts of Madrid as well as upcoming contracts under negotiation.

Anyone can access the lagoon and white sandy beaches of the PAL™ complexes upon purchase of a ticket and thus experience a tropical paradise just meters from your doorstep. Around the lagoon, there are private residential areas, hotels, stores, restaurants and other infrastructure that transforms these locations into the most beautiful places in the city.
