Crystal Holidays Harbor Van Don: a five-star resort and entertainment complex.
Centara Hotels & Resorts has unveiled five properties to its portfolio, strengthening its footprint in Thailand and Vietnam. This sets the stage for its strategic growth initiatives domestically and overseas.
It has signed a Hotel Management Agreement (HMA) with Phi Phi Paradise Company Limited for its Villa 360 property. Set to re-open as Centara Villas Phi Phi Island in October 2024, the resort has 40 villas ranging from 56 to 133.5 sqm, an all-day dining restaurant, a sunset sky bar, an outdoor swimming pool, and pool bar, spa, fitness centre, and a convenient onsite mini shop.
Another HMA was signed with Kornsiri Hospitality Management Limited Partnership for Tiva Ao Makham Resort Phuket, a greenfield project set to re-define health-focused travel with facilities including yoga, cycling, a Pilates reformer studio, a sauna, steam room, and onsen. Offering 68 rooms along Phuket’s southeastern coast, this will be Centara’s 11th hotel in Phuket and the newest edition to its Boutique Collection.
In Vietnam, Centara will open two properties in Vung Tau City, a popular destination along the southern coast in Q1 of 2027. The 261-room Centara Life Vung Tau will offer all-day dining restaurant, meeting rooms, swimming pools, a pool bar, a fully equipped fitness centre, and a spa. Meanwhile, Centara Residence Dio Dua will offer 536 rooms, a reception, a fitness centre, a swimming pool, and a dedicated kids club.
Also, Crystal Holidays Harbor Van Don will be opening a second tower in Q2 2025 as part of its plan to develop five hotel and resort apartment buildings within its five-star international standard resort and entertainment complex. Complementing the existing Centara-branded Tower A, which houses a purpose-built convention centre, the new Tower B comprises 496 rooms along with dining options, a fitness centre, and swimming pools.
"We are proud to welcome these exceptional properties onto our portfolio as we embark on this exciting phase of expansion. These new signings represent significant milestones for Centara Hotels & Resorts, setting the stage to further pursue unique opportunities and partnerships around the world while fuelling our momentum to shape the future of hospitality," said Andrew Langston, senior VP - business development of Centara Hotels & Resorts.
