BANGKOK - Six Senses Resorts & Spas have commenced
rebranding their Evason Hideaway properties to Six Senses
Hideaway in response to market surveys which showed that
'Six Senses' - a group brand that has thus far been
reserved for the Six Senses Spa division, enjoyed high
global recognition and was very indicative of the unique
lifestyle experiences offered by the group's boutique
resorts. The first Six Senses Hideaway is a new-build
property that opened on 01 November 2007, on the Thai
island of Yao Noi, just beyond Phuket. Evason Hideaway
properties operating at Hua Hin and Samui in Thailand will
be rebranded to Six Senses Hideaway. In Vietnam, the Evason
Hideaway at Ana Mandara will be rebranded as Six Senses
Hideaway at Ninh Van Bay. In January 2008, the next
new-build property will open as Six Senses Hideaway at
Zighy Bay, on Oman's Mussandam Peninsula. This will be the
first Six Senses Hideaway outside South-East Asia. Future
Six Senses Hideaways are already in development on the
island of Con Dao in Vietnam, and Vatulele Island in Fiji,
while several more are in the planning stage.
