A New Hospitality Initiative
Bound and Beyond Public Company Limited and Cloud Collective have proclaimed the launch of KAIA, a fresh hospitality brand originating from Southeast Asia. KAIA will feature an ensemble of luxury outdoor resorts, designed to harmonize with nature and the local community, promoting social connections while embracing responsible luxury.
The inaugural KAIA resort, situated on the northeastern coast of Koh Phangan, Thailand, is slated to open in the latter half of 2025. This location, enveloped by a national park, is only thirty minutes by speedboat from Koh Samui, promising an exclusive getaway with direct beach access.
“With KAIA, we are redefining luxury by seamlessly blending immersive outdoor hospitality with a deep reverence for nature and local culture. Each resort is thoughtfully designed to foster meaningful connections—between guests, the land, and the community—while upholding the highest standards of sustainability.”
— Beverly Chen, Co-founder & COO of Cloud Collective
The brand seeks to prioritize authentic experiences, emphasizing local talent, sourcing ingredients from nearby producers, and creating shared experiences among guests. This approach is firmly rooted in the Thai philosophy of community and genuine hospitality.
Community and Sustainability
KAIA aims to become a model of conscientious luxury, delivering a unique blend of outdoor lifestyle and culture. With plans for further expansion throughout the region, KAIA is committed to fostering connections between travelers and local cultures, creating shared memories and promoting responsible tourism.
Culinary Offerings
The culinary adventures at KAIA will be centered on local flavors and sustainable practices, highlighting produce based on seasonality and locality, ensuring that the essence of Thailand is captured in every dish.
In collaboration with esteemed local designers, KAIA promises to showcase modern interpretations of traditional Thai textiles, reinforcing its commitment to sustainability.
KAIA promises a new paradigm in luxury travel, combining elegance, responsibility, and a deep connection to culture, making it a noteworthy addition to the hospitality landscape.
