The addition of the hotels and villas curated by Mr & Mrs Smith complements the recently announced pipeline of more than 35 new luxury properties across Hyatt’s Timeless, Boundless, Independent and Inclusive Collection brands as Hyatt doubles down on caring for today’s luxury travelers and their wellbeing priorities.
