SINGAPORE, Nov. 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The Boathouse Phuket gets a shiny new makeover as the hotel reopened its door on 1 November after a 5-month refurbishments. This latest addition to The Boutique Collection, The Boathouse is a secluded beach front hideaway on Kata Beach Phuket.
All 39 guestrooms and suites have been refurbished and instilled with modern, elegant-puristic atmosphere. The new look has integrated with the beachfront location and maritime theme, which is consistent with the brand.
Designed by the Singapore based interior architecture firm, LAANK, the fresh and breezy nautical theme decor makes the guests feel like relaxing on a yacht while traversing the ocean. The coastal chic and refreshing interior details such as ropes, a combination of wood, ocean blue and white hues are incorporated into the design to capture the freshness of the ocean and enhance its Baan Reua (meaning "boathouse" in Thai) character.
In the common areas, along the reception, blue corrugated wall features create an imagery of water reflection; the grey colour shades thorough the interiors provide a contemporary look.
"Being small in room number, we can easily cater to the special needs and requests from our guests. Our hotel is operating in an intimate level that allows us to pay attention to details that matter," says, Max Chin, General Manager of The Boathouse Phuket. "Here, remembering guests by their first names is an accepted norm, so is taking the initiative that they're well taken care off."
