With an investment of 200 million euros, Valamar is transforming the destination of Pore\u010d. But it also makes a key step forward for the entire Croatian tourism towards high added value, luxury offer and year-round business.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The opening ceremony was attended by representatives of the state leadership led by the Prime Minister of the Republic of Croatia, Valamar shareholders and partners, leading representatives of local and regional self-government, and numerous dignitaries from business and social life, which further confirms the strategic importance of this project for the Republic of Croatia.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;The investment worth 200 million euros in itself speaks volumes about how much you wanted to improve the offer of your hotel company. How much you wanted to raise the content and quality offered by Pore\u010d and Valamar. I think it will be very worthwhile, and completing a project like this will certainly make all of you who lived this idea and realized it satisfied and proud. In this way, you are also strengthening the competitiveness of Croatia as a Mediterranean destination. I think you are a model and example for other hotel and tourist companies on how to position Croatian tourism. I thank all your associates and I wish you that this resort will be the pearl of Croatian tourism,&#8221; said Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovi\u0107.     <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read more on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.turizmoteka.hr\/vijesti\/hrvatska\/svecano-otvoren-pical-resort-investicija-od-200-milijuna-eura-koja-postavlja-nove-standarde-hrvatskog-turizma\/\">Turizmoteka<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: Turizmoteka The largest tourism project in Croatia positions Pore\u010d and the entire country on the global map of luxury tourism.
