Kurt Berman, the general manager of Samujana says, “We are focussed on offering owners the very best return on their lifestyle investment. By operating as a boutique villa retreat with the provision of exemplary hospitality in such a stunning setting, we create an environment where owners and guests can discover a new state of mind.”
The principal designer of Samujana, Gary Fell of Gfab Architects says, “I am delighted that Samujana has been chosen to receive an award for its architecture from our industry peers.” He continues, “The project has been a constant feature of my office over the past few years and to the best of our knowledge, we can think of no other development in the region that offers individually designed residences at this scale”.
With 33 award categories, over 1000 nominations and 300 entries, this year’s awards were more competitive than previous years. Overall there were 7 Koh Samui developers that won an award showing that Koh Samui is continuing to rise up in the luxury travel and property sectors in Thailand, rivaling its big sister resort island Phuket and Indonesian competitor Bali.
