Koh Samui, Thailand: Outrigger Enterprises Inc., the fast growing Hawaii headquartered hotel chain, has just signed an agreement to manage a luxury hotel in Bhoput on the island of Koh Samui in the South of Thailand.

The eighty-one key resort is to be re-named the Outrigger Koh Samui Resort and Spa. It is currently operating as the Destination Beach Resort and Spa.
The five star resort consists of luxury villas, with private pools, and suites. It also has a beachside restaurant, a Navasana Wellness Centre, a fitness centre, three swimming pools (including one absolute beachfront pool), two bars and a Kids Club.

Outrigger are due to commence their management of the resort on 1st February 2011.

Earlier this year, Outrigger opened their regional operating headquarters in Phuket so the deal is a logical step to increase the hotel operator’s presence in Thailand.

Darren Edmonstone, Outrigger Asia’s senior vice president commented; "The chain is expecting 2011 to be a banner year for expansion given a growing critical mass of hotels and resorts under the brand."

Currently Outrigger Enterprises Inc. operates, or has under development, 47 properties worldwide, with a total of nearly 12,000 rooms, located in Hawaii, Australia, Guam, Fiji, Bali, Phuket, Thailand and Hainan, China.
