Nestled in some of the world’s most captivating locales – ranging from vibrant cities to sun-drenched, palm-fringed beaches – we craft unforgettable memories for every guest at each destination.

Anantara is inspired by the Sanskrit word meaning 'without end', and our spirit embodies freedom, movement, and harmony. We believe every journey should leave a lasting impression. Our guests share this belief, seeking remarkable experiences and authentic connections that enrich their lives, whether they are travelling for leisure, business, or self-discovery.

Our journey began in 2001 with the opening of the first Anantara resort in Thailand’s renowned seaside town of Hua Hin. Since that day, we have expanded our presence into new corners of the globe, from pristine beaches and private islands to tranquil coastal retreats, ancient sites, and vibrant metropolises. Today, our portfolio of destinations encompasses Asia, the Indian Ocean, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe.

Our thoughtfully designed luxury hotels and resorts provide windows into the unique character of each location. Inside and out, travellers connect with the places, people, and stories that make each destination truly exceptional. Through personal experiences, guests curate a lifetime of memories as Anantara opens doors to unforgettable journeys filled with adventure and indulgence.
