International estate agency Fine & Country comes of age as it turns 21 this June. As brand ambassador for Fine & Country Spain, Fine & Country Costa Blanca North kicked off the celebrations, hosting an event on Saturday the 18th of June at their regional office based in the prestigious Marina de Denia Resort in the historical coastal city of Denia, that is not only the capital of the Marina Alta region, but is also considered to be one of the most beautiful and culturally rich cities in Spain.  

Christopher Hara, owner and managing director of Fine & Country Costa Blanca North commented “Denia and the Marina Resort where we are based characterize the perfect setting to celebrate the 21st anniversary and coming of age of Fine & Country in ‘Spanish-style’ with a ‘fiesta’ party for all our colleagues from Fine & Country Spain to enjoy. 

Simon Leadbetter, Fine & Country’s global CEO said, “Our 21st birthday is a milestone that many of our competitors saw come and go some 100-years ago. Our brand is in its infancy in the grand scheme of things, and yet, we have successfully established ourselves as one of the top, premium estate agencies in the UK – no easy feat in such a crowded market and in such a short period. I am delighted for our colleagues in Spain who walked away with the award for “Best Worldwide Operator” at the brand’s International Awards Gala for 2021, held in London in March. Spain was the first to celebrate the brand’s growing legacy, and after seeing Fine & Country Costa Blanca North playing ‘super hosts’ for the day, I am thrilled that the event was enjoyable and successful for all involved – Salud!” 

Denia holds the award for ‘Creative City of Gastronomy by UNESCO’ and has the 3 Michelin star restaurant ‘Quique Dacosta’, named as the 4th best restaurant in Europe. “As a coastal city Denia is the closest mainland point in Spain to the Balearics where, on a clear day, you can see Ibiza. The city also boasts four marinas, including one specifically dedicated to superyachts. Since luxury real estate and a luxury lifestyle go hand-in-hand, our location is the epitome of luxury lifestyle living and the perfect venue for this event,” said Christopher Hara. 

Christopher went on to say that “having won the award for Marketing and Exposure for the second year running at the recent Fine & Country Conference in March, as ‘fiesta’ event organizers, Fine & Country Costa Blanca North fully appreciate and understand the importance of positive representation and looked forward to inviting their colleagues in Spain to join us in our flagship regional office and take inspiration from our successes. Since we all live in Spain, we all understand that food plays a huge part of the Spanish culture, as we love to eat together, and mealtimes and gatherings are part and parcel of our culture”. 

The Fiesta Event started after breakfast on Saturday with a champagne reception at the Fine & Country Costa Blanca North regional office followed by a stroll along the Marina de Denia resort taking in the sights and surroundings, with a quick stop en-route at Fuego Marina – a lifestyle restaurant where Fine & Country Costa Blanca North are the main sponsor.  

To mark the event as an occasion, demonstrating the importance of what the Fine & Country 21st anniversary represents, owner and managing director Christopher Hara surprised his fellow colleagues with a sailing trip around the coastline, arranged with one of their preferred partners Punta Estrella Yacht Services – part of the VIP after sales concierge service that Fine & Country Costa Blanca North offers. With skipper Juan at the helm and stewardess Lucy, they were welcomed aboard the Hanse 630e – KAZE – a private sailing boat characterized by its elegance and speed.  After all, with Fine & Country Costa Blanca North, not only do their clients benefit from owning a dream property, here they can also buy or charter a private yacht, pairing superyachts and super villas in the Costa Blanca North.  

“Four hours later, after a truly fabulous sailing experience it was back to shore for a cocktail in the trendy rooftop chill-out Zensa, followed by delicious international cuisine, letting the wine flow in ‘Republic’ – one of our favorite restaurants on the marina with both sea and marina views. Then, as the night was still young, we headed to the rooftop ‘Zahara Restaurant Sunset Lounge’ to enjoy some live music with a nightcap of Laurent Perrier Rose champagne. The night ended with watching the night lights twinkling on the Marina over the harbour, right through to Denia castle, concluding what was hopefully a very memorable summer event in a luxurious lifestyle setting”, said Christopher.
