NATURE MEETS DESIGN.
We are a family-run real estate development firm that acquires, invests in, and designs luxury properties, both historic and newly concepted. Promoting conservation and reimagining destinations, we endeavor to create a point of pride and community for travelers and the neighborhood. Building experiences rooted in local culture, we pay homage to the stories that have preceded us and to the transformation we encounter through nature and history.
Z Haus Group revives destinations with cultural and environmental significance, protecting our natural spaces and honoring each property’s historic role in a community. With deep respect for the environment and preservation, we invite guests to immerse themselves in a destination and reconnect with the world around us.
