Located on the serene shores of Mai Khao Beach in northwest Phuket, Le Méridien Phuket Mai Khao Beach Resort promises to be the next destination for couples, families, and groups to experience Southern Thailand.
The famous Le Méridien Hotels & Resorts, a part of the Marriott Bonvoy family of 31 exceptional hotel brands, is excited to announce the opening of the Le Méridien Phuket Mai Khao Beach Resort. This stunning resort introduces a culturally-infused era of hospitality to Phuket's breathtaking sunset coast. Nestled amidst the golden sands of Mai Khao Beach and surrounded by the natural beauty of Sirinat National Park, this resort offers a tranquil tropical escape where guests can relax in style.
According to Jakob Helgen, Area Vice President - Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia & Myanmar, Marriott International, "We are delighted to start welcoming guests to Le Méridien Phuket Mai Khao Beach Resort, as we continue to introduce our industry-leading brands to Thailand’s most desirable destinations. With its stunning seafront location and outstanding facilities for couples, families, and out-of-town events, this sophisticated resort is set to become a popular choice for domestic and international travelers who want to discover a different side of this popular island."
The resort recently underwent refurbishment and rebranding, drawing inspiration from the golden age of travel. It now features 244 bright and welcoming rooms and suites, ranging from 41 to 110 square meters, designed in a contemporary local style. Each room comes with a balcony or terrace and stunning views of gardens, pools, or the sea. The resort also offers family rooms with bunk beds, newly-introduced pool access rooms, private cabana rooms, two-bedroom suites, and private pool suites.
Guests can enjoy an outdoor lagoon pool, a children's fun pool, a kids' club, and various outdoor activities. The resort provides direct access to Mai Khao Beach, perfect for beachfront yoga, paddle-boarding, kayaking, and admiring Andaman sunsets.
Throughout their stay, guests can savor light bites, cool drinks, and locally-inspired snacks at The Nook, the resort's casual café. For a more upscale dining experience, Ocean Kitchen, the signature Mediterranean restaurant, offers an array of freshly-prepared European and Middle Eastern cuisine, from prime grilled meats and fresh seafood to wood-fired pizzas and healthy dishes. The dining experience is enhanced with craft and draft beers, fine wines, creative cocktails, tropical juices, and more.
Additionally, Le Méridien Phuket Mai Khao Beach Resort provides a variety of event spaces, including a 214.5-square-meter ballroom that can be divided into three smaller meeting spaces, along with two intimate spaces, all equipped with state-of-the-art facilities.
The resort's General Manager, Ms. Jirarat Ninpadub, shared, "Blissfully secluded yet easily accessible, this is a destination that will immerse guests in a world of natural beauty and cultural charm. From our sensitive design philosophy, which highlights Phuket’s heart and soul, to our curated experiences, we hope to surround visitors with the authentic spirit of Phuket."
Mai Khao Beach is an exceptional destination for travelers who seek a quieter, more natural side of Phuket. With Sirinat National Park nearby and Phuket International Airport just 15 minutes away, it's an ideal location for exploration.
To celebrate its launch, Le Méridien Phuket Mai Khao Beach Resort has introduced an exclusive offer, the "Sip, Savour and Stay" package, priced from just THB 5,999 net per room per night.

Atmosphere Core, a fast-growing international hospitality company, in partnership with the Amagi Group, is set to make its debut in Sri Lanka with a new boutique resort in Tangalle. A part of the award-winning Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts brand, AMAGI SECRET by Atmosphere Tangalle is scheduled to open in the last quarter of 2026, blending soulful Sri Lankan heritage with crafted indulgence.
“Sri Lanka is a land of stories, rhythms and rich heritage, and with AMAGI SECRET by Atmosphere Tangalle we intend to honour and celebrate those stories,” said Salil Panigrahi, Cofounder and Managing Director of Atmosphere Core. “This resort is not simply a destination, it is an immersion. With our expansion across India, the Maldives, and Italy, and now this important step into Sri Lanka, we are placing thoughtfully curated, distinctive landscapes on the global tourism map.”
Spread across 11 acres around a serene natural lake and located near Sri Lanka’s golden southern coastline, the resort will feature 33 private pool villas, including six 40 sqm lake view villas perched over the water, 23 one-bedroom pool villas of 60 sqm, and four two-bedroom family villas spanning 111 sqm.
Designed with mud-plastered walls, clay-tiled roofs, and locally inspired landscaping, the property immerses guests in the island’s natural rhythm. Curated comforts provide a seamless blend of tradition and elegance, offering a setting that reflects the spirit of Sri Lanka.
The resort will house an all-day dining restaurant, a poolside bar, and a signature restaurant celebrating Sri Lankan flavours. Guests can also rejuvenate through ayurvedic treatments, yoga, and meditation at the ELE│NA Ayur Spa and Wellness Centre.
Mr. S. Ganeshanathan, Chairman of the Amagi Group, shared,
“From our early days in seafood export we have always regarded Sri Lanka’s natural resources and human craftsmanship as our foundation. With a hospitality background myself, I have long valued the art of service and the pursuit of excellence in guest experience. Partnering with the Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts brand enables us to bring forward a property that respects and elevates those foundations, where sustainability, culture, and community are as central as international luxury hospitality standards.”
Sri Lanka’s tourism sector is witnessing a strong revival, with rising international arrivals and increased visitor spending. Simplified visa access and renewed global interest are contributing to its position as one of Asia’s leading experiential travel destinations.
Set against this vibrant backdrop, AMAGI SECRET by Atmosphere Tangalle will invite travellers to slow down and connect deeply with the island’s culture and nature. By blending luxury with authenticity, the resort aims to set a new benchmark for immersive, sustainable hospitality in Sri Lanka.

In a bold move to make sustainability effortless and engaging for travelers, SAii Hotels & Resorts, part of S Hotels & Resorts PCL, has launched the Green Button – a new feature on the SAii mobile app that transforms guest actions into tangible environmental impact.
Already live at SAii Phi Phi Island Village, SAii Laguna Phuket, and SAii Lagoon Maldives, with SAii Koh Samui Villas joining in December, the initiative combines smart digital innovation with real-world conservation.
With just a tap, guests can now choose to skip daily linen refreshes, and that single choice directly supports tree planting efforts at Singha Park Chiang Rai under Singha Estate Group’s “Pleuk Pa Duay Plai New” (Million Trees for Tomorrow) programme.
So far, the initiative has contributed to the reforestation of over 1,000,000 sqm of land over the past three years, planting native species like Rain Tree, Indian Cork, and Gurjan Tree to restore biodiversity and strengthen local ecosystems.
What makes the Green Button stand out is its transparency and interactivity, guests can track their real-time impact, including water and energy savings and contributions to biodiversity. It’s sustainability made simple, measurable, and meaningful.
“Sustainability should be simple, engaging and rewarding,” said Michael Marshall, CEO of S Hotels & Resorts. “The Green Button gives our guests a direct way to make a positive impact from conserving resources during their stay to planting trees that will thrive for generations. It’s a small click with a big impact.”
The initiative aligns with S Hotels & Resorts’ long-term sustainability vision, which targets carbon neutrality and a 30% biodiversity uplift by 2030.
Through its Green Button project, SAii Hotels & Resorts continues to bridge technology, guest engagement, and environmental stewardship — redefining what responsible travel can look like in today’s luxury hospitality landscape.
A lifestyle brand under S Hotels & Resorts PCL, SAii Hotels & Resorts redefines affordable luxury with nature-inspired design, heartfelt service, and sustainability at its core. The brand operates distinctive resorts across Thailand and the Maldives and is a proud member of the Global Hotel Alliance (GHA) and the GHA DISCOVERY loyalty programme.Learn more at saiiresorts.com.
