Located in Lihue, Kauai, the resort is poised to capitalise on the island’s robust lodging market, which has outperformed pre-pandemic levels last year.

The project’s rural classification under the USCIS definition aligns with the interests of many EB-5 investors seeking such investment opportunities.
Civitas Capital Group EB-5 Investor Relations director Jeff Kiser said: “I am incredibly proud to be able to introduce what we believe is a high-quality rural EB-5 project to the market.
“On top of priority immigration processing, our EB-5 investors will benefit from the top-notch sponsorship, an internationally recognised brand in a premier hospitality destination and the security of a first lien. Civitas believes it’s a wonderful opportunity for EB-5 investors.”
Construction on the project is expected to commence in the third quarter of 2024, with completion anticipated by the third quarter of 2026.
