The collection will see the addition of AKARYN Koh Krabeay Retreat & Spa later in 2015 - located on its own private island in Cambodia, and featuring 40 exquisite pool villas and a destination AYURAH Wellness Centre.
The edgy akyra Manor Chiang Mai opens as a five-star, 30-key all-suite luxury hotel in May. The hotel features 21 suites measured at 610 sq ft and seven larger suites at a spacious 1050 sq ft created around a courtyard-within-a-room concept.
akyra Manor Chiang Mai joins a collection which comprises existing sister resort akyra Chura Samui as well as AKARYN Samui, Aleenta Phuket-Phang Nga and Aleenta Hua Hin-Pranburi.

The Collection managing director and founder Anchalika Kijkanakorn said akyra Manor Chiang Mai was a 'passion project from the heart', as the northern capital was one of her most loved getaways.
"Chiang Mai has been one of my personal favourites, a place where I go to getaway with friends and family. It's somewhere I've visited again and again," Ms Kijkanakorn said.
A highlight of the design was the inspiration to build each suite around its own courtyard - a 'room within a room' concept to bring the outdoors inside while not sacrificing privacy.
