Centara will add a new property to its Chinese portfolio in 2017 after signing a management contract with developers of Centara Resort Zhaoqing.
The agreement with Zhaoqing Yuhao Properties Development Co., Ltd was sealed last week.
Centara Resort Zhaoqing is located in Zhaoqing City in Guangdong Province, which is close to some of China’s most bustling, successful areas, including Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Macau, making Zhaoqing a convenient travel hub for visitors to Southeastern China.
“I believe this resort is an ideal start for our expansion in China, and it provides a valuable synergy with our other Centara properties around the world.”
Chris Bailey, Centara Hotels & Resorts Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing
The four-star resort will have 250 rooms in total, and guests will have a stimulating resort-style hotel experience, with an extensive range of family-friendly facilities including a water park complete with swimming pools and pool bar, an all-day restaurant plus one Chinese and one specialty dining venue.
There’s also a fitness center, plus generous “Kid’s Club” and meeting facilities including an 800-square-meter ballroom.
Additionally it will feature Centara Hotel & Resort’s luxurious and award-winning Spa Cenvaree.
Zhaoqing is a historically-significant tourist destination, enjoying a temperate climate throughout the entire year.
The scenic environs of this cradle of Cantonese civilization is home to a host of mountainous wonders, such as Qixingyan (Seven Star Crags), Dinghu Mountain, Xiannv Lake (Fairy Lake), Butterfly Valley and Qingyun Temple, and is justly regarded as one of Guangdong Province’s most famous tourist attractions.
CEO of Centara Hotels & Resorts, Thirayuth Chirathivat, said he is pleased with the inception of the group’s Chinese hotel and its strategic expansion across Asia.
Centara Resort Zhaoqing is currently on schedule to be opened during the fourth quarter of 2017.
