Jomtien, Pattaya, Thailand, January 16, 2023 / TRAVELINDEX / The lush, tropical beachfront resort offers discerning travelers and families an inviting and invigorating destination to connect with nature and discover authentic Thai culture. Hyatt Hotels Corporation announced the opening of the Andaz Pattaya Jomtien Beach, marking the debut of the Andaz brand in Thailand. Nestled on over 6.4 acres of stunning beachfront property, surrounded by mature trees and gardens overlooking the Gulf of Thailand, this luxurious lifestyle resort offers guests a wealth of opportunities to express their personal style and experience local culture and nature – from excursions and authentic dining to wellness and family activities.

“Given the increasing demand from luxury travelers for authentic and immersive experiences, we are thrilled to launch the dynamic Andaz brand in Thailand, one of the world’s most attractive destinations,” said David Udell, Group President Asia-Pacific at Hyatt. “Andaz Pattaya Jomtien Beach is our first Andaz resort in Thailand and expands the brand’s growing portfolio in the region, which now includes properties in Bali, Delhi, Seoul, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Singapore, Tokyo, and Xiamen.”

The Andaz Pattaya Jomtien Beach is a tranquil oasis right on the oceanfront at Tawanron Beach – known as “Sunset Beach” for its breathtaking sunsets. Nestled between the popular resort town of Jomtien and the charming fishing village of Bang Saray, it's just a 10-minute drive from most of Pattaya's scenic and tourist attractions, including beautiful rolling hills, lakes, wineries, world-class golf courses, and cafes. Less than a two-hour drive from Bangkok and Suvarnabhumi Airport, the resort is located in the Na Jomtien area, which is being developed into a luxury lifestyle destination as part of the country's Eastern Economic Corridor.

“Andaz Pattaya Jomtien Beach celebrates the spirit of discovery and individuality of each guest, offering low-rise complexes of rooms, suites, and villas nestled amidst pristine beachfront scenery. These complexes feature shaded courtyards, sparkling pools, and creative event spaces – all expressions of the dynamic charm of this emerging destination,” said Ranjeet Y. Rajebhosale, General Manager of Andaz Pattaya Jomtien Beach. “By collaborating with local brands such as wellness provider PAÑPURI and artisans, we aim to create captivating experiences that help our guests reconnect with nature and discover Thai culture.”

Concept and Design: Surrounded by manicured gardens with centuries-old trees, the resort boasts a distinctive, locally inspired yet contemporary design, rooted in the site's history as a private estate. Designed by the award-winning Thai architecture firm A49 and PIA Interiors, the Andaz Pattaya Jomtien Beach welcomes guests to the Raintree Court, the resort's heart, featuring a stunning rain tree and a reflecting pond. Here, travelers can meet, relax, and connect. This accessible space also houses restaurants with interactive show kitchens and a herb garden, where guests can receive personalized tours and enjoy other special experiences and programs for curious travelers. Exquisite Thai teakwood cottages—all repurposed using reclaimed wood from traditional Thai wooden houses—nestle among the tropical greenery. Natural, local, and handcrafted materials and artwork are featured throughout the resort.

The 204 rooms, suites, and villas, spread across low-rise, grouped buildings and starting at 50 square meters (538 square feet), feature locally inspired interiors, walk-in rain showers, and a balcony or terrace with a comfortable lounger. Nestled within lush gardens, the resort invites exploration. The diverse accommodation options cater to every occasion and every guest—from multi-generational families and couples to solo travelers. Lagoon-access rooms offer direct entry to the gently lapping waters of the resort pool, while pool suites provide private access to the ocean at any time, and beach suites are situated directly on the fine sandy beach.

In the coming months, two heritage-inspired houses will open, forming the resort's most sought-after accommodations and ideal for multi-generational families and intimate celebrations – a four-bedroom duplex mansion and a stunning six-bedroom presidential mansion, each offering luxurious living with private pools, courtyards, butler service and ocean views.

Dining and Entertainment: The resort's six restaurants and bars feature regional, seasonal, and sustainable produce, including tropical fruits, vegetables, herbs, and spices from the hotel's own organic garden. The lively beachfront Fish Club serves fresh, locally sourced seafood and offers light poolside snacks for lunch, refreshing sunset cocktails, contemporary dinner experiences, and late-night drinks with live DJ sets. Wok Wok serves traditional Thai dishes and authentic regional specialties in a casual atmosphere. La Cucina is a trattoria-style Italian restaurant where guests can enjoy delicious pasta and freshly baked pizza paired with Italian wines. The Village Butcher is a classic steakhouse where guests can savor charcoal-grilled steaks and a wide selection of wines. The Teak Lounge invites guests to relax and enjoy refreshments under the magnificent rain tree. The soon-to-open Ruen Thai is a traditional, charming teahouse furnished with Thai silk and classic floor seating, offering guests a tranquil place to relax and recharge amidst nature.

Three outdoor pools offer countless opportunities for relaxation, including a tranquil lap pool, a spacious family pool next to the lively Sanuk Sanuk Kids Club, and a beach pool overlooking the beautiful beach – the perfect spot for sunset cocktails and vibrant DJ parties. Nestled within lush gardens, the PAÑPURI Spa, a collaboration with the exclusive Thai wellness brand that also created the resort's signature fragrance products for the bathrooms, offers a luxurious wellness oasis where guests can indulge in pampering treatments using organic skincare products. The 24-hour fitness center is equipped with state-of-the-art Technogym equipment and features an inviting yoga studio.

Social spaces: The light-filled, 300-square-meter garden pavilion, with its floor-to-ceiling windows, versatile foyer, outdoor terrace, and show kitchen, provides the perfect setting for any private or business event.
