Dusit to Rebrand Hotel in Krabi, Thailand

Dusit International and MBK Hotel and Resort have signed a deal to open a Dusit Thani beach resort in Krabi, Thailand.

Dusit will rebrand the property from 1 July 2015.

The Dusit Thani Krabi Beach Resort, located on a secluded stretch of the beautiful Klong Muang Beach, will offer 240 guest rooms, 3 restaurants, 1 bar, 2 beachfront swimming pools, meeting facilities, a spa, a gym, a club lounge and a kid’s club.

“The Dusit Thani Krabi Beach Resort is an excellent addition to our portfolio,” said Khun Chanin Donavanik, Dusit International’s Managing Director and CEO. “It is a natural fit for the brand, complementing our well-established Dusit Thani resort properties here in Thailand ... This signing underpins our confidence in the country, and in the high potential of Krabi as a growing destination. Dusit continues to pursue international expansion, but Thailand definitely plays a role in our growth plans.”

Khun Suvait Theeravachirakul, MBK Group’s Director and CEO, said, “This is an exciting new project between longstanding partners, which brings the best of each company to the table. It is great to grow the long-standing relationship between MBK and Dusit, and we have every confidence our resort will be very successful under a strong regional brand.”
