PHUKET, Thailand – Known for its timeless tropical modern design harmonized with a subtle sense of cultural heritage, Regent Phuket Cape Panwa has been honored at the prestigious 2014 Asia-Pacific Hotel Awards, becoming the first property under the Regent Hotels & Resorts brand to receive the “Highly Commended Award” in the coveted “Hotel Interior” category.
The resort prides itself of featuring excellent hospitality design thanks to the work of award-winner BLINK Design Group, who has deservedly been recognised for its benchmark-setting vision in this Regent’s flagship Phuket resort.
The Asia Pacific Hotel Awards are part of the long established International Hotel Awards. These identify the highest levels of achievement in hotel design, architecture and interior design in the global hospitality industry, focusing on services, sustainability, ergonomics, originality and creativity. The highest-scoring winners from each region are automatically entered into the overall International Awards, which ultimately determine the world’s finest property companies.
Regent Phuket is a traditionally inspired beach residence embellished with touches of Thailand and Asia. As BLINK Founder and Creative Director Clint Nagata describes, “the colonial feel of the exterior cedes to glowing, flowing interior spaces with warm tonal accents and spectacular back-lit high ceilings.” The design takes its cue from Sino-Portuguese and contemporary Thai colonial-era culture, to complement the existing structure’s colonial-style, with the hotel’s lobby revealing the exposed roof structure of the classic Thai arch, finished with natural rattan and the characteristic Thai-green accent color. Playing on the interior architecture to enhance the octagonal shape and the high-ceiling space, the resort’s exterior maintains a simple tone-on-tone color scheme that synchronizes with other notable public spaces, confirming Regent Phuket Cape Panwa’s place among the iconic beachfront resorts.
Situated in a totally private bay yet offering easy access to major tourist attractions, Regent Phuket Cape Panwa presents a timelessly fresh, effortlessly Thai and bespoke resort experience, and features one of South-east Asia’s best ocean-view spa facilities. With a personality all of its own and benefitting from one of the region’s most incredible locations, Regent Phuket offers an unrivalled way to explore and enjoy Southern Thailand, an endlessly popular and world renowned leisure and tourism destination.
