Anantara Lawana Koh Samui has appointed Narain (Nick) Dass as Assistant Director of Sales – Wholesale, further strengthening its commercial leadership team as the resort continues its strategic growth in the luxury travel segment.
Nick brings over 14 years of experience in luxury hospitality sales, with a proven track record in wholesale market development, international account management, and cultivating strategic trade partnerships. Renowned for his results-driven approach and collaborative leadership style, he has consistently delivered commercial success across global markets.
Before joining Anantara Lawana, Nick served as Sales Manager at SO/ Maldives, where he successfully managed a robust wholesale portfolio and drove revenue growth from key markets including the UK, India, the CIS region, and the DACH countries.
In his new role, Nick will be responsible for leading Anantara Lawana’s global wholesale strategy, expanding market reach, building new trade relationships, and supporting the resort’s elevated positioning within the competitive luxury segment.
Located on the serene northern stretch of Chaweng Beach, Anantara Lawana Koh Samui unveiled a major transformation in November 2024, marking an exciting new chapter for the resort. Since then, it has earned accolades including a MICHELIN Guide One Key and a place among Thailand’s Top Ten Resorts in the Condé Nast Traveller UK Readers’ Choice Awards 2024.
Blending Sino-Thai architectural charm with modern coastal style, the refreshed resort now offers reimagined pool suites, maritime-inspired villas, and a revitalized beachfront and pool deck with panoramic sea views.
Dining has also been elevated with standout venues such as Tree Tops Signature Dining, offering a treetop culinary journey under a century-old jungle canopy; Cay Restaurant, which showcases refined Thai cuisine; Ocean Kiss, known for al fresco dining with sweeping ocean views; and Crab Shack, a relaxed beachside spot serving fresh, flavorful seafood.
Anantara Lawana’s cultural relevance was recently spotlighted in the latest season of The White Lotus, with key scenes filmed at the resort’s iconic Singing Bird Lounge, elevating Koh Samui’s profile on the world stage.
