BANGKOK, 7 November 2024: Centara Hotels & Resorts<\/a>, Thailand\u2019s leading hotel operator, returned to WTM London from 5 to 7 November to meet with the world’s travel trade and reveal its latest news, insights and expansion plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2024 has been a highly productive year for Centara, with the opening of exceptional new hotels, the launch of revitalised brands, entry into exciting new markets, and several prestigious awards. The group will use WTM London to provide a timely update on its latest developments \u2013 including one of the most significant projects in Centara\u2019s 41-year history: The Atollia by Centara Hotels & Resorts<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since its founding in 1983, Centara has built a proud reputation for providing warm, family-centric, Thai-style hospitality. A sustainable growth strategy has increased its portfolio to 92 hotels and resorts either operating or in the pipeline, covering 11 countries and six diverse brands: Centara Reserve, Centara Boutique Collection, Centara Grand, Centara, Centara Life, and COSI. Earlier this year, Centara Life (formerly known as Centra by Centara) was relaunched under a new lifestyle concept that will “Elevate the Essentials” for visitors in key cities and resorts in Thailand and beyond, with guest-friendly innovations such as 24-hour check-ins and stays, flexible breakfasts until 4PM, and complimentary “daily delights”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group\u2019s expansion strategy has gathered momentum this year. The debut of the 95-key COSI Vientiane Nam Phu<\/a>, Laos, in March 2024 marked the first location outside Thailand for COSI, Centara\u2019s affordable lifestyle brand. Then in August 2024, the 61-key Centara Life Lamai Resort Samui<\/a> opened its doors just three minutes\u2019 walk from idyllic Lamai Beach, marking the arrival of the newly-reimagined Centara Life brand in Koh Samui.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attendees at WTM London were offered an exclusive first glimpse at Centara Mirage Lagoon Maldives<\/a>, the stunning underwater world-themed, family-focused resort in the North Mal\u00e9 Atoll, which will welcome its first guests in November 2024. With spacious beach and overwater villa accommodations and fantastic facilities for all ages, all centred around a vibrant water park; this resort marks the start of a new era of dedicated family travel in the Maldives. Centara Mirage Lagoon Maldives is the first phase of The Atollia by Centara Hotels & Resorts, a brand-new multi-island destination, and will soon be complemented by Centara Grand Lagoon Maldives<\/a>, its sophisticated neighbouring resort opening in February, creating options for every occasion just a short speedboat journey away from Mal\u00e9 airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
