LANGKAWI – Marriott International, Inc. announced the appointment of Piotr Madej as the new general manager of The Andaman, a Luxury Collection Resort, Langkawi, last month.
With over 18 years of hotel management experience, Piotr had worked across Europe before taking the role of the executive assistant manager of a Luxury Collection hotel in Warsaw, Hotel Bristol, where he was in‐charge of leading the day to day operations and developing guest satisfaction strategies.
The Andaman Resort marks Piotr’s second Luxury Collection property in his journey within Marriott International.
“The Luxury Collection is a very interesting brand that truly defines the destination. Arriving at The Andaman, I am awed to learn about the indigenous experiences and representation that the property is already offering and there is so much more that we can offer to the global explorers staying with us.”
The stunning resort – set between a 10‐million‐year‐old rainforest and the exquisite Datai Bay – is also Piotr’s first assignment in Asia.
“Malaysia has always been one of the dream destinations that I planned on visiting and Langkawi is a perfect destination to start with,” added Mr Madej.
With Mr Madej’s decades worth of hospitality experiences, in sales and marketing and in managing and leading the management team in providing exceptional service and driving revenue as well as profit, he aims to bring The Andaman further in the market, by leveraging on the settings of the resort.
“The Andaman is already known for the impeccable service provided by the team that makes every stay memorable but I believe there is so much more that we can offer, especially wellness experiences within the rainforest that will set us apart from the other resorts in Langkawi. A natural setting like this is not only perfect for a beach holiday but also to recharge your mind, body and soul.”
During his free time, Mr Madej enjoys running, riding a bicycle and swimming as he believes a good amount of sports will release enough endorphins to re‐energise and to create a positive outlook in life.
