Azerbaijani investors are invited to participate in an international tender to build a tourist complex Kupari near Dubrovnik (Croatia), the Azerbaijan Export and Investment Promotion Fund (AZPROMO) reported on Tuesday.
According to the report, the tourism project will be put up for tender in the next 10 days.
The main purpose of the tender is to promote the development of quality tourism in the Dubrovnik-Neretva through the completion of the Kupari - Srebreno state project. This area is one of the most beautiful places in the region. The project involves three sites: Kupari I, which will cover an area of 14 hectares, which provides for the construction / reconstruction of accommodation facilities for 1,500 places; Kupari IV, which is an undeveloped area of 12 hectares and is designed for the construction of facilities for 800 seats; Srebreno II - land area of 6.1 hectares designed for the construction of the congress center (for 2,000 members) and a 100-bed hotel.
Kupari tourist complex is a former military sanatorium located in the village of Kupari near the Old City of Dubrovnik and the Dubrovnik International Airport. Today, part of the sanatorium (Kupari I) consists of five non-performing hotels and the Kupari auto camp rented until the end of 2012. The total number of beds in the five hotels located close to the water channel amounts to 1,626, while the auto camp could accommodate about 4,500 people. All facilities are in poor condition and in need of renovation.
