The Catalan chain Ona Hotels and Apartments has purchased the three-star Ritual, located in the center of Torremolinos. With this acquisition, the group consolidates its expansion on the Costa del Sol, where it already has ten establishments. Nacho Barrau, CEO of Ona Hotels & Apartments, highlights that "we reach a new milestone: the tenth hotel on the Costa del Sol. It is a great honor for us to expand our portfolio in the south of Spain, which allows us to offer complementary vacation experiences to our national and international clients." Additionally, he believes that with this operation, which includes the recent acquisition of Ona Luna Park Adults Only in Mallorca, "we continue to take very important steps in our expansion process in Spain."

The Ritual hotel, located in the center of Torremolinos with direct access to Bajondillo beach, has 187 rooms and sea views. It is a complex that serves as a reference for the LGBT community, featuring two outdoor pools, a spa with a heated pool, sauna, Turkish bath, chromotherapy area, massage room, a 24-hour gym, a shopping area, and a hair salon.

185

are the rooms in this three-star hotel complex.

Ona frames this operation within an ambitious expansion plan that has led to the addition of ten hotels to its asset portfolio by 2025, including the acquisition of 100% of Ona Marinas de Nerja and the apartments at Ona Valle Romano Golf Resort. Thus, it now totals 52 hotels in prime destinations such as Costa del Sol, Mallorca, Canary Islands, Murcia, and Catalonia, in addition to a notable presence in Andorra and Morocco.

The chain, based in Barcelona and with almost three decades of experience in the Spanish tourism sector, emphasizes that "it is distinguished by a philosophy that merges the freshness and dynamism of a young organization with the vast experience accumulated in the management and operation of vacation complexes." They note that "it is a company in constant evolution and expansion, committed to innovation and the optimization of its resources, from computer processes to the quality of its services, with the goal of offering a superior value product and ensuring memorable stays."
