Centara Samui

CENTARA Hotels & Resorts, one of Thailand’s leading hotel groups, has announced the completion of an extensive Bt200-million renovation of the Centara Grand Beach Resort Samui.

Located at Koh Samui’s finest beach, Chaweng, the five-star Centara Grand Beach Resort Samui offers first-class Thai hospitality and facilities, and a tranquil ambiance.

Designed in a colonial architectural style with its own extensive landscaped gardens and situated directly on the beachfront, the four-story hotel has 203 deluxe sea-facing rooms and suites, all with private balconies.

Some Bt20 million was spent to refurbish a central feature of the hotel, the stunning lobby with its sweeping staircase—reminiscent of a set from Gone with the Wind.
Over Bt160 million was lavished on the 203 guest rooms and suites—Bt90 million on the normal rooms and suites and a Bt70 million on the Pool Suites.

The rooms, which are particularly spacious, include multi-channel satellite television, in-room video movies, music channels, mini-bar, tea- and coffee-making facilities, and personal safe.

Starting at 60 square meters, the Pool Suites offer luxurious accommodation. All feature private plunge pools and include membership at The Club—with five complimentary food serving daily and complimentary cocktails and canapés every evening among a host of other benefits.

To complete the renovation, a further Bt20 million was spent on Spa Cenvaree, the signature spa brand of Centara Hotels & Resorts.

The hotel has several restaurants and bars including Zico’s Brazilian Grill and Bar, Spice Island, Hagi Japanese restaurant, Palm Grove, Seabreeze Beach Bar and Terrace, and The Islander.
