Kevin Wendle of Hotel Esencia opens his second hotel, Château de Curzay in France.
When Hollywood producer Kevin Wendle first told friends he was buying a former home of an Italian duchess in Mexico with plans to turn it into a hotel, he was — perhaps fairly — greeted with skepticism.
“I think when you go on vacation, it’s a bit of a fantasy, so you want at least something on par with what you have. But ideally something better.”Wendle describes the typical Esencia crowd as the media, art, fashion world; last month, the Assouline book was toasted with parties in New York and London, attended by Clive Davis, Justin Theroux, Martha Hunt, Don Lemon, Paul Andrew, Dominique Ansel, Michael Bargo and more.
“When I arrived the first time, there were 40 of the most beautiful horses running around the property. It was just magical,” Wendle says. “I had stepped into heaven.”
