Napasai Koh Samui and Jimbaran Puri Bali Join Leading Hotels of the World

Orient-Express has confirmed that the Napasai, Koh Samui in Thailand and Jimbaran Puri Bali in Indonesia have joined Leading Hotels of The World.

 A stylish and secluded beach retreat, Napasai features one of the longest private sandy beaches on Koh Samui, Thailand. Following a month long closure, in June 2011 the resort unveiled a new 28,000m2 crystal clear lagoon and nature reserve. Dead coral and underwater rocks were carefully removed under the supervision of the local marine authority to create a haven for vibrant fish and a diversity of corals, producing a wildlife paradise for snorkelers. This was the latest phase in Orient-Express’ investment in Napasai. In January 2010, the resort’s private beach was expanded by 1,800m², complemented by a new barbecue restaurant. Napasai’s 14 private pool residences, some of which are ocean front, and 55 Villas were renovated in the same project, further enhancing the chic yet comfortable feel of the resort.

Situated on Bali’s southern shores, Jimbaran Puri Bali is a tropical escape that overlooks one of the islands most romantic and pristine beaches. The resort’s most recent refurbishments include the addition of 22 thatched villas, bringing the total room count to 64. Each villa is set amidst a traditional Balinese garden and courtyard ensuring seclusion, with a luxurious private swimming pool and a shady teakwood deck where rejuvenating spa treatments can be arranged. If guests can tear themselves away from their villa, Jimbaran Puri Bali’s other facilities include a private beach, swimming pool, Beach Spa, Puri Bar, Tunjung Café and Nelayan restaurant, where locally caught seafood as well as French Mediterranean dishes are served.

Philippe Bissig, Regional Managing Director of Asia for Orient-Express, said, “We are very pleased that Napasai and Jimbaran Puri Bali have joined Leading Hotels of the World. Like us, their guests demand the highest level of quality and an inspirational travel experience.”
