Newly formed hotel management company LaTour IndoChine Hotel Group has unveiled its first project, the IndoChine Resort and Villas, in Phuket, Thailand.

The resort overlooks Kalim Beach and the Andaman Sea, and consists of one to six-bedroom villas, ocean view studios and a large entertainment complex. The property will include elevated terraces, a waterfall, two natural pools and five spa treatment rooms, along with a full-time concierge service.

The LaTour IndoChine Hotel Group is a collaboration between the LaTour Signature Group -  a joint-venture enterprise with ResortCom Elite that provides management services to small, luxury fractional ownership properties - and the IndoChine Group, an international lifestyle brand.

Based in Singapore, the LaTour IndoChine Hotel Group aims to provide a range of specialised services to developers entering offering boutique and six-star hotels, as well as whole and fractional ownership villas. The group plans to expand further into Asia, in addition to the Middle East, New Zealand and Australia. Michael Ma, chief executive of the IndoChine Group, says: “The IndoChine Resort and Villas is the first of many LaTour IndoChine properties to come.”
