AKARYN Hotel Group expanding to Indonesia and Vietnam
Thailand’s AKARYN Hotel Group is making its first move into international markets.
The Bangkok based company is expanding to Indonesia and Vietnam with two of its boutique brands.
It is exporting its Aleenta brand to rural Bali with the 50-room Aleenta Retreat Bali which is positioned as a spa village and yoga resort.
It features an Ayurah Wellness centre offering Balinese massages and natural therapies with an outdoor yoga and a fitness centre.
It also has a choice of restaurants and pool bar, as well as indoor and alfresco function spaces for weddings and events.
"Aleenta was our first brand and our pioneering resorts in Phuket and Hua Hin have become hugely popular among guests. Every Aleenta property is designed to reflect the timeless charm and character of its destination," said AKARYN Hotel Group’s managing director, Anchalika Kijkanakorn.
Also arriving in 2019 is akyra Hoi An, situated by the water’s edge with 110 rooms and pool villas.
Like the Bali property it will also offer yoga classes and spa treatments, plus two restaurants and a kid’s club.
AKARYN operates the Aleenta brand in Phuket and Hua Hin and akyra hotels in Bangkok, Phuket and Chiang Mai.
