What's Happening?
The Khao Lak Marriott Beach Resort & Spa has unveiled a new meetings and events scene in Southern Thailand, offering purpose-designed indoor and outdoor venues. The resort features 767 square meters of adaptable space, including the Andaman Grand Ballroom and Similan Meeting Rooms, designed for corporate summits, incentive trips, and gala dinners. The resort also offers alfresco venues with stunning beachside scenery, accommodating up to 1,200 guests. A dedicated team of meeting professionals provides tailored experiences, including private check-ins, personalized décor, and curated menus. Opened in December 2024, the resort offers 283 rooms and suites, blending contemporary design with Southern Thai character.
Why It's Important?
The introduction of the Khao Lak Marriott Beach Resort & Spa significantly enhances the MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) landscape in Southern Thailand. This development positions Khao Lak as a compelling alternative to Phuket for event planners, offering world-class infrastructure and fresh coastal appeal. The resort's facilities and services are likely to attract international business events, boosting local tourism and the economy. Marriott's expansion in Thailand reflects the growing demand for high-quality event spaces in the region, potentially leading to increased competition and innovation in the hospitality industry.
