W Retreat Koh Samui
W Hotels Worldwide, the hotel category buster and industry innovator, today unveiled the eagerly anticipated design concept for its first W Hotel in Southeast Asia and its third Retreat worldwide, W Retreat Koh Samui, which is expected to debut in August 2010 on the renowned Thai island destination of Koh Samui.
W Retreat Koh Samui brings an alluring vision of cutting-edge design, global lifestyle, modern luxuries and a new dimension of indulgence and extravagance to Thailand. An all-villa beachfront resort caressed by lush foliage, unspoiled golden sand and warm island breezes, W Koh Samui Retreat offers panoramic sunrise and sunset views of the Gulf of Thailand from its exceptional beachfront location.
“Given the energy, style and wild popularity of the island, Koh Samui represents a wonderful next destination for W Hotels and is a great brand fit as W continues to transform from a New York phenomenon to a global powerhouse,” said Coetzer Deysel, general manager of W Retreat Koh Samui. “Our shared passions, along with Thailand’s unique culture and its spirit of celebration, have ignited the inspiration for the W Retreat Koh Samui design concept.”
Showcasing innovative architecture by MAPS Design Studio and interior design by Thailand-based design firm P49 Deesign, W Retreat Koh Samui – like Koh Samui itself – really is an island within an island, a place where nightlife shines, dedicated to celebration. It exists as its own source of energy and life, almost apart from the rest of the world. With a hill separating its own peninsula of land from the rest of Koh Samui, W Retreat Koh Samui offers an escape within an escape for guests and travelers who seek something extraordinary – a far cry from the everyday resorts nearby.
