Nolan Reynolds International (NRI), a luxury hospitality development company with projects worldwide, announced a partnership with Kerzner International and the Culinary Institute of America (CIA) to develop a new One&Only resort in New York’s Hudson Valley. The joint venture welcomes a new One&Only resort and private homes on a 21-acre location adjacent to the Culinary Institute of America (CIA). The new property will feature 61 cabins, guest rooms and suites, as well as culinary experiences and a Longevity Hub by Clinique La Prairie. The residences and luxury resort will open concurrently in 2028.
“This partnership between NRI, Kerzner and the CIA sets a new industry benchmark,” said Brent Reynolds, NRI CEO and managing partner. “The new One&Only in Hudson Valley brings together some of the most innovative and respected brands in the hospitality world and redefines the meaning of experiential luxury as we know it. This new destination resort is grounded on wellness, longevity, immersive learning and gastronomic innovation designed to improve quality of life.”
“The debut of One&Only in the Hudson Valley exemplifies NRI’s commitment to delivering iconic, world-class destinations,” said Charles D. Nolan, chairman and managing partner of NRI. “It also reflects the strength of our strategic partnerships — collaborations that not only bring visionary projects to life, but also enrich the exceptional places we are proud to help shape.”
Operated by Kerzner International under the ownership of the Investment Corporation of Dubai, One&Only boasts a portfolio of 14 resorts and 381 branded residences across the globe. Each property is a unique, designed in settings of natural beauty and cultural significance, the company said. Renowned for its exclusivity, the collection will never exceed 35 properties.
“We are excited to work together with Nolan Reynolds International and Culinary Institute of America to expand further into North America,” said Juan Aguilar, president of real estate, Kerzner. “Built on shared values of sustainable design and community engagement, our partnership solidifies the foundation for continued success and legacy expansion in the United States.”
For nearly 80 years, the CIA has set the standard for culinary education on its campuses in New York, Texas, California and Singapore. More than 55,000 CIA alumni — from celebrated chefs to entrepreneurs, master sommeliers and mixologists, corporate leaders, and restaurateurs — have shaped the food world as we know it. Foodies from around the globe travel to the CIA to experience its one-of-a-kind classes, immersive boot camps and restaurant experiences. At the One&Only in Hudson Valley, guests will have unrivaled access to the ultimate gastronomic programming and experiences that align with the resort’s approach to wellness and longevity.
“From the onset, the CIA sought a partner that could build on the attributes that have made the Hudson Valley a global food, beverage, and cultural destination,” said CIA President Michiel Bakker. “One&Only is the perfect addition to the region’s vibrant tapestry of agricultural, historical and educational offerings, and brings exceptional, one-of-a-kind opportunities for CIA students, guests, and our community.”
