PHUKET, THAILAND — Outrigger Khao Lak Beach Resort in southern Thailand opened 7 February, with first guests arriving from Thailand, Germany and Scandinavia.
The 154-key resort on Bang Sak beachfront, acquired by Outrigger last year, has been refurbished with new design elements emphasizing a seamless connection between sea, sand and the green landscape. Outrigger canoe motifs and local southern Thai artifacts such as textured prints and relaxed earth tone colours, promote a sense of tranquility for guests seeking unity with nature.
The property is absolute beachfront with all rooms, suites and villas featuring a balcony or terrace. From the restyled lobby via the lush tropical garden to the beachside Edgewater chill out restaurant, the whole resort has been reimagined to help guests relax in comfort and style.
“Guests can unwind in our swimming pool or jacuzzi while enjoying the breathtaking views of the Andaman Sea,” said Tony Pedroni, Outrigger’s Area General Manager for Thailand. “Our Edgewater beachfront restaurant and bar is proving very popular with a great menu and chillout atmosphere.”
The Edgewater bar & grill features a pool, lounge chairs, sofas, daybeds, and tropical swing chairs. It has been designed as a focal meeting and relaxing space for guests.
Apart from its resort in Khao Lak, Outrigger opened the Outrigger Surin Beach Resort in Phuket in late December. The Outrigger Koh Samui Beach Resort is scheduled to open by July 2022.
