The exclusive 5star Movenpick Resort & Spa Pattaya will comprise 300 rooms and suites and is scheduled to open at the end of 2010. Each of the 300 modern rooms and suites at the Movenpick Resort & Spa Pattaya, which is an integral part of this high quality tourism project, offers unrestricted views of the sea. A second highrise with 303 luxury condominiums is under construction next to the hotel. The resort facilities include a main restaurant, featuring the popular and muchpraised Movenpick buffets, two speciality restaurants and an entertainment centre.

 Resort guests will be able to enjoy a wide array of leisure activities, including an extensive spa and wellness area, a fitness centre, swimming pools, tennis courts, water sports and a Kids' Club. The Phoenix Golf & Country Club, a 27-hole golf course, is only five minutes' away. Stateoftheart conference facilities for business travellers are available on 1,500 sqm.

 "We very much look forward to the partnership with Movenpick Hotels & Resorts," says Pongphan Sampawakoop, Chairman of Apex Development Public Company Limited. "With its Resort in Phuket the Swiss hotel group has demonstrated that Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts' philosophy is also very well received in Thailand."

 "Pattaya is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Thailand and it is currently investing heavily in its infrastructure in order to firmly position itself as a leading tourist destination," explains Jean Gabriel Pérès, President & CEO Movenpick Hotels & Resorts. "We are proud of the fact that as of 2010 we will be represented in Pattaya, and we firmly believe that, with APEX, we have found the right partner for this unique 5star project."
