Indigo Pearl Resort and Spa: Nai Yang
Beach, Phuket
Formerly known as the Pearl Village and recently upgraded
to five-star status, this resort has a loyal following that returns year after
year. Centrally located on NaiYang Beach, it is an easy walk to the best beach
- and the multitude of restaurants and bars that sit on the beach front.
The US$21 million fusion of modern architecture and Thai
tin-mining tradition on Nai Yang Beach, just 10 minutes from Phuket
International Airport, was recently named one of the best new hotels in the
world by Condé Nast Traveler (US) in its ‘2007 Hot List’ of top new resorts,
spas, restaurants and nightclubs.
Admitted as a member of HIP Hotels, the distinctive
5-star resort was furthered selected to join the Kiwi
Collection’s exclusive list of the top 1,500 hotels in
the world, and partner the world’s leading private
members’ club and concierge, Quintessentially.
As
a favoured resort for international MICE organisers, it
has also hosted a number of conferences and events for
regional and international companies, welcoming
corporate groups including large international banks,
insurance groups and pharmaceutical companies, along
with a number of private ‘high end’ wedding parties.
Targeting discerning travellers seeking a distinctive
cultural experience, Indigo Pearl continues to focus on
its design culture and vision to pay tribute to the
history of tin mining in Phuket.
Inspirational art pieces continue to be installed and
the resort is a venue for international shows and art
exhibitions with three planned for late 2007 and early
2008.
Designed by world-renowned architect, interior and
landscape designer Bill Bensley, everything down to the
finest detail at Indigo Pearl fits in with the theme of
tin mining, extending through every facet of the resort,
from the names of the restaurants and bars to the staff
uniforms.
