Her great grandfather was Conrad Hilton, the founder of the Hilton Hotels chain.

And it seems Paris Hilton has always dreamed of continuing the family's real estate legacy.

The 33-year-old tweeted an image on Wednesday of her first real estate venture - a lavish apartment complex - in the Philippines.

'Following in my family's footsteps!': Paris Hilton tweeted an image on Wednesday of her first real estate venture - a lavish beach resort - in the Philippines

Playing a part: The new property is a partnership with a Filipino real estate company called Century Properties, and Paris reportedly helped design it, pictured in LA on Tuesday

The tweet was a composite of four images showing a luxurious, sprawling residential residence called the Azure Urban Resort Residences.

The property features a collection of massive skyscrapers overlooking a man-made beach.

She captioned the picture, 'So proud & excited for my 1st real estate property to be opening this week in the Philippines! Always dreamed to follow in my family's footsteps. #DreamsDoComeTrue'.

Where it began: Paris pictured with Centuries Properties Managing Director Robbie Antonio in Manila in 2011

Luxury: Paris also posted interior shots of her beach club, with the caption, 'Love the way I designed the interior of my new real estate property. Can't wait to go there this weekend!'

The new property is a partnership with a Filipino real estate company called Century Properties.

Paris reportedly helped design the property, including a clubhouse called the Paris Beach Club.

According to the Azure website, the club includes a movie theatre, restaurants, a gym, game room, spa and massage rooms.

According to a 2011 press release, it was Paris' style that made her a good fit for the company.

'Her unparalleled style that made her a successful businesswoman and a style icon, as well as her zest for living the good life are the qualities that we would like to incorporate into our vacation-inspired residential property,' said Century Properties Chief Operating Officer John Victor R. Antonio.

He added: 'With her exposure to the best beaches around the world, coupled with her fun and sensible fashion sense, we believe that we’ve made the right choice in partnering with someone who appreciates urban resort style living and who can lend a world-class touch to Azure.'

Continuing his legacy: Paris is the great granddaughter of Conrad Hilton, founder of the Hilton Hotels chain

Just what they need. Not! How about giving to those effected by the disaster. I absolutely loath this woman and everything she represents. She is part of the one percent that is dragging this world under. Selfish self centred cow!!

She should leave the design to the professionals, oh, she did, well I guess if thats what the locals want, personally I think the style is very down market, not sure it will attract an international crowd, at least not until the Manchester and Glasgow set can get on an Easyjet flight there.

1. That's not a beach, that's a fake lagoon. 2. The decor is so 60's. 3. It's not hers. She's a "partner" they paid to promote it. But whatever it is, she is earning her own keep. Good for her.
