Six Senses retains management of Lamuu resort after HPL acquisition
Six Senses, on the Laamu Atoll in the Maldives, has announced that it will continue operational management of the property following its acquisition by the Singapore-based HPL Hotels & Resorts company.
The takeover, which was handled by HPL subsidiary, Leisure Frontiers Pvt Ltd, will see the new owners make enhancements to the resort in concert with the Six Senses Hotels, Resorts & Spa brands.
Designed and operated by Six Sense, the 97-villa property, which includes spa facilities, opened in 2011 and was the first high-end island resorts in the Laamu atoll of the Maldives.
“As new owners, we are extremely pleased that Six Senses will continue operating the property,” said Stephen Lau, chair of HPL hotels and resorts. “The group's pioneering position in the Maldives gives it a unique insight into target markets and to operating in the destination.”
The acquisition is expected to be a seamless transition for both the trade and consumer sectors, with all commitments and programmes ongoing.
