KAIA Koh Phangan

About

Bound and Beyond Public Company Limited and Cloud Collective have joined forces to announce the launch of KAIA, a new hospitality brand originating in South East Asia. KAIA comprises a collection of luxury outdoor resorts with tented suites that are designed in dialogue with nature and the local community, encouraging social connection and rooted in conscientious luxury. KAIA is jointly founded and conceptualised by Bound and Beyond, a prominent Thai-based hospitality investment firm and owner of Four Seasons Hotel at Chao Phraya River and Capella Bangkok, currently named as the ‘World’s Best Hotel’ in the 50 Best Awards 2024, and Cloud Collective, an outdoor hospitality specialist revolutionising light footprint developments underpinned by strong sustainability values. Cloud Collective sets a new global standard in luxury hospitality by seamlessly integrating supply, design, development and operations into a single, cohesive offering, under its portfolio of experiential brands. KAIA’s first resort will be opening on Koh Phangan island in Thailand in the second half of 2025. KAIA Koh Phangan will be located on the verdant northeastern coast of the island, surrounded by protected national park and just a 30-minute speedboat journey from Koh Samui. The outdoor hospitality brand has considerate global expansion plans as part of its mission to provide meaningful and conscientious hospitality experiences for the modern world.
