Capella Ubud, Bali, invites discerning families to embark on an extraordinary journey where nature, heritage, and indulgence intertwine. Hidden in the verdant rainforest of Keliki Valley, the resort's signature two-bedroom tented accommodation—The Lodge—serves as the heart of this bespoke family adventure.

Thoughtfully designed by acclaimed architect Bill Bensley, The Lodge is a sanctuary of comfort and elegance. Spanning 217 square metres, it offers two expansive bedrooms, a spacious indoor-outdoor living area, and a private heated pool overlooking the untouched jungle. Adorned with handpicked antiques, rich textiles, and whimsical explorer-era touches, it strikes a balance between modern luxury and multi-generational appeal. Its secluded location and exclusive amenities ensure privacy and tranquillity, making it the ideal base for families seeking reconnection and adventure.

The journey begins with an awe-inspiring helicopter transfer from Bali's southern coast, where guests are whisked away into the sky, leaving behind the bustling beaches for an unforgettable aerial adventure. As the helicopter ascends smoothly into the blue, families can take in breathtaking views of Bali's volcanic landscapes, the lush pockets of emerald rice terraces, and historic temples, each a gem embedded in the island's vibrant tapestry. The gentle hum of the rotor blades melds with the thrill of rising above the ground, creating a sense of exhilaration and freedom. As guests glide through the air, the stunning vistas unfold below, painting a picture of paradise that evokes a sense of wonder and anticipation. This magical flight culminates in a graceful descent, landing softly near the jungle fringes of Ubud, where nature invites them to explore its secrets.

Upon arrival, families are immersed in a specially tailored Capella Curates programme—personalised experiences that spark imagination and foster deeper cultural connections. One of the highlights is the enchanting Wayang Kulit (puppet) performance. As twilight bathes the surroundings in a soft glow, families gather under the stars for a spellbinding adventure through ancient Balinese folklore. The artistry of the puppeteer brings to life exquisitely crafted leather puppets, each a work of art, dancing against a backdrop of vibrant puppet play. Children sit wide-eyed as whimsical characters captivating their imaginations while the melodious sounds of traditional gamelan music reverberate through the air. As the tales of gods, heroes, and enchanting creatures unfold, laughter and awe fill the atmosphere, creating beautiful memories that linger long after the final curtain falls.

Our Capella Culturists curate a series of experiences that provide exclusive access to immersive activities, such as a private Balinese home cooking session guided by a local farmer and foraging for seasonal ingredients harvested from the forest. The culinary journey concludes with a family-style lunch or dinner in the farmer's dining room.

From forest treks and rice paddy picnics to temple blessings and traditional crafts, every element is designed to inspire both curiosity and togetherness. Younger guests may enjoy bespoke experiences guided by Camp Rangers, while adults indulge in wellness rituals at Auriga Spa or sunset aperitifs by the Campfire.

"At Capella Ubud, we believe that the most meaningful luxury lies in connection—to people, to place, and to each other," says Christian Jaquier, General Manager of Capella Ubud. "The Lodge embodies this spirit, offering an unforgettable space for families to create stories that span generations."

Capella Ubud's signature Family Adventure experience is available year-round and can be tailored to each family's interests.

18/07/2025

Las Vegas Sands marked a momentous milestone on Tuesday evening with the groundbreaking of its new US$8 billion ultra-luxurious resort and entertainment destination in Singapore, expanding its regional footprint and strengthening its commitment to the Republic's future.

The occasion was officiated by Singapore's Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Lawrence Wong; Minister for Sustainability and the Environment and Minister-in-charge of Trade Relations Grace Fu; and Las Vegas Sands co-founder Dr Miriam Adelson, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Robert Goldstein, and President and Chief Operating Officer Patrick Dumont.

Robert Goldstein, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Las Vegas Sands, said: "With its opening in 2010, our founder Sheldon G. Adelson embarked on a journey in Singapore with Marina Bay Sands and the people of Singapore that promised to change the face of tourism in the region. Fifteen years later, we have delivered on these ambitions and more. Marina Bay Sands is the world's most successful integrated resort in history, and the gold standard in the industry. It has been truly incredible to witness Mr Adelson's vision come to life, and we are proud to carry his legacy forward with today's groundbreaking ceremony for our new development here. We have every intention of delivering a product that will be the envy of the hospitality industry and ushers in a new era of luxury tourism in Singapore."

When completed, the new development is set to redefine industry standards further and push boundaries in the realms of luxury tourism, hospitality and entertainment, curating the finest and most exclusive suite of experiences for travellers.

The pioneering project will feature a soaring 570-suite luxury hotel tower capped with signature rooftop and dining experiences, luxury retail boutiques, gaming, holistic spa and wellness amenities, and approximately 200,000 square feet of premium meeting space. A purpose-built 15,000-seat arena situated against the stunning backdrop of Marina Bay aims to enhance the live entertainment scene in Asia.

Proving to be another extraordinary feat of engineering, the new property is being designed by the acclaimed Safdie Architects, led by Moshe Safdie—the visionary firm behind Marina Bay Sands' world-renowned design.

A World Beyond

Rotated at a 45-degree angle to frame panoramic views of both the Marina Bay and the Singapore Strait, the 55-storey hotel tower rises with its twin wings curving outward as they ascend toward the sky.

Taking inspiration from the island's lush urban greenery, the development will see biophilic designs being integrated throughout the building along with a significant proportion of green amenities.

The crowning achievement of the hotel tower is the revolutionary 76,000-square-foot Skyloop — a breathtaking haven that intuitively combines both elevated public and private spaces.

As a counterpart to the iconic Sands SkyPark at Marina Bay Sands, the Skyloop's form is defined by overlapping elliptical volumes that spiral in opposing directions, giving the tower an overall dynamic quality, and affording 360-degree views. The lower Skyloop interweaves several points of public access, including an observatory, destination restaurants and lush rooftop gardens. Above, hotel guests can enjoy secluded experiences: private cabanas, infinity-edge pools and shading palms. There will also be a cantilevered wellness terrace that is designed for yoga, arts and specialty events.

Situated adjacent to the hotel tower, the podium serves as a bustling hotspot for business, entertainment and cultural exchange. At its core is a 15,000-seat state-of-the-art arena being helmed by global design firm Populous—responsible for some of the world's most recognisable entertainment venues, including the Sphere in Las Vegas and the O2 Arena in London.

Specially designed to host the highest calibre of regional and international touring acts, concerts and large-scale live events, the venue will be optimised for unparalleled acoustics, sightlines and production flexibility.

The venue will also be integrated with new and existing developments within the Marina Bay precinct for greater efficiency and pedestrian connectivity, providing direct access to Bayfront MRT station and linkways between Marina Bay and Gardens by the Bay.

More than 220 guests attended the groundbreaking event tonight, which featured captivating performances by homegrown artist Jasmine Sokko and Canadian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Henry Lau. The lavish affair was accompanied by a curated culinary experience from Marina Bay Sands' signature restaurants, including a taste preview of upcoming Cantonese restaurant Jin Ting Wan.

To commemorate the occasion, Marina Bay Sands was illuminated in a wash of golden hues—a stunning public spectacle that spanned the entire property from its three towers and the SkyPark Observation Deck to the Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Centre.

In celebration of the milestone year of SG60, Marina Bay Sands also commissioned a cinematic tribute to the nation. Titled "Nothing Comes by Chance", the film by local director Kirsten Tan reflects on Singapore's commitment to shaping a bright future, underscored by resilience, ambition and constant reinvention that parallels Marina Bay Sands' growth and spirit. It features prominent Singaporean talents who have helped define its global presence across arts, culture, sports and entertainment, such as Tan Kheng Hua, Quah Zheng Wen, Pierre Png and Jasmine Sokko—offering a heartfelt ode to the nation.

Shaping a Greener Horizon

In line with Marina Bay Sands' global strategy Sands ECO360, sustainability will remain at the heart of the new building's architecture and operations.

Different approaches towards designing shade for guest comfort and reduced energy consumption are being explored. This includes a self-shading façade system that utilises high-performance glazing and internal blinds to lower direct solar heat transfer and improve energy efficiency. Each suite will have its own private terrace and garden, while outdoor dining venues will be fitted with canopies to shield guests from the elements. Tree species native to the Southeast Asian region will also be planted where possible, paying tribute to the development's prime location.

As construction works proceed, best practices will be adopted including the use of materials with reduced environmental impact such as low-carbon concrete and recycled steel to lower the project's upfront environmental footprint. A construction waste management plan has also been set in place, where on-site segregation and recycling will be implemented and at least 75 per cent of construction waste will be diverted to significantly reduce landfill disposal.

Towards New Heights

Since its inception, Marina Bay Sands has become an iconic symbol of Singapore, transforming the nation's tourism landscape as a leading leisure, business and entertainment destination in Asia. It hosted a record-breaking 2,200 events last year, drawing 1.2 million MICE delegates. In March this year, the property welcomed its 500 millionth visitor.

With more than 12,000 Team Members directly employed by the integrated resort and 92 per cent of procurement spent on local businesses in 2024, it has also contributed to Singapore's economy through the creation of new jobs and support for homegrown small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). These figures are set to rise in the coming years as Marina Bay Sands expands its operations in Singapore.

"Over the years, Marina Bay Sands has been integral in strengthening Singapore's position as a major tourism powerhouse. By the time our new ultra-luxury development is complete, Las Vegas Sands will have invested more than US$15 billion since we started operations in Singapore in 2010. This speaks volumes of our confidence in this region, and the potential that we continue to see in Singapore," said Patrick Dumont, President and Chief Operating Officer of Las Vegas Sands.

"We are privileged to have benefited over the past 15 years from factors that make Singapore great - excellent infrastructure, and a strong and supportive government with a forward-looking vision."

Mr Dumont added: "We are proud of the transformative impact that Marina Bay Sands has had and are highly optimistic about building on this strong foundation. Our new development will raise the bar and redefine the ultra-luxury hospitality realm on a global scale, fuelling further growth of high-value tourism while our state-of-art arena will attract the world's most popular performers and usher in a new era of live entertainment in the region. We look forward to forging a new chapter together and continuing to contribute meaningfully to Singapore's future success."

Banyan Group, an independent global hospitality company, enters the second half of 2025 with strategic momentum across its diversified portfolio of hotels, branded residences, and purpose-led experiences. This November, Banyan Group will mark a significant moment in its journey with the Grand Opening of Mandai Rainforest Resort—its 100th hotel and a symbolic homecoming in Singapore—through a weeklong celebration and charity festival.

The first half of the year saw the Group mark a series of milestones—from new market entries and openings to key anniversaries that reflect its growing presence and ongoing commitment to purpose-led hospitality.

“The first half of 2025 reflects not only the growth of our footprint, but also our belief that hospitality should offer more than just a place to stay,” said Eddy See, President and CEO of Banyan Group. “It’s about something authentic shaped by thoughtful design, cultural depth, and genuine care. As we grow, we remain committed to using travel as a force for positive change and to deepening meaning, not just expanding presence.”

Expanding into Sub-Saharan Africa: A Debut in Safari Hospitality

Looking ahead, Banyan Group is set to deepen its presence in Africa with the upcoming launch of its first safari resort, Ubuyu, A Banyan Tree Escape, located in the heart of one of East Africa’s most pristine wilderness areas. Opening in late 2025, this eco-luxury retreat offers rare access to Ruaha National Park, one of Tanzania’s best-kept secrets, renowned for its raw natural beauty and extraordinary biodiversity. The park is home to one of Africa’s largest elephant populations, the highest density of lions, endangered wild dogs, and over 570 bird species.

Crafted with local materials and inspired by traditional Maasai architecture, Ubuyu will launch with a limited collection of six artisan villas in its first phase. Each villa is designed to blend seamlessly into the surrounding savannah with private pools and expansive views. Guided by dedicated Escape Hosts, guests will embark on immersive wildlife encounters, cultural exchanges, and riverside rituals. As Banyan Group’s debut in safari hospitality, Ubuyu represents a bold step into new frontiers and reinforces the Group’s commitment to meaningful, regenerative travel experiences.

20 Years in China: Deepening Presence and Impact

2025 commemorates Banyan Group’s 20th year in China, where it first brought its ethos of nature, culture, and community to the highlands of Shangri-La, restoring traditional Tibetan farmhouses to open Banyan Tree Ringha as its first hotel in the country. Today, the Group operates 33 hotels across five brands in the market.

This year’s new openings include Banyan Tree Zhuhai Phoenix Bay, Angsana Zhoushan, Dhawa Beihai Weizhou Island, Homm Wenzhou Nanxijiang, and Homm Hengqin. New signings in Guangzhou, Xiamen, and Wenling further anchor the Group’s presence across both tier-one cities and emerging destinations.

The Group continues to expand its community impact through the Banyan Environmental and Community Fund, launched in partnership with the China Environmental Protection Foundation. A new clean water project in Lijiang will launch this year to mark the 20th anniversary, complementing ongoing initiatives in coral reef restoration, marine protection, and education.

30 Years in the Maldives: Recognition from the Government of Maldives

The Group will mark three decades in the Maldives with the anniversary of Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru, a pioneer in sustainable eco-luxury since its opening in 1995. In July, the Group was honoured by the Government of the Maldives for its contributions to environmental stewardship and bilateral relations. The award was presented by His Excellency Dr. Mohamed Muizzu, President of the Maldives, at the Maldives–Singapore Business Forum.

Strategic Openings Across Southeast Asia

Banyan Group continues to diversify its footprint across the region. The first Garrya property in Vietnam, Garrya Mu Cang Chai opened in the terraced hills of the north, blending bamboo-led architecture with cultural immersion. In the Philippines, the upcoming opening of Homm Mandaue Cebu later this year will extend the Homm brand’s presence in a fast-growing urban market.

Expanding Retail Reach Through Banyan Tree Gallery

Banyan Tree Gallery, the Group’s artisan-led retail concept, continues to grow its international presence. Its curated selection of sustainable crafts and wellbeing products is now available onboard China Airlines, adding to existing inflight retail partnerships with Emirates, EVA Air and Starlux airlines.

Residential Growth in Europe and Asia

In Europe, the sales launch of Banyan Tree Padilla Madrid Residences marks the Group’s first residential development on the continent. Located in Madrid’s prestigious Salamanca district, the residences reinterpret a 1948 architectural landmark by Gutiérrez Soto into one to four bedrooms residences, with interiors by Caramba Estudio, each with generous terraces and access to private amenities including a Turkish bath, indoor pool, and landscaped courtyards.

In Southeast Asia, Banyan Tree Beach Residences Oceanus launched in Laguna Phuket, offering 16 exclusive beachfront homes with access to a private club, BDMS wellness services, golf membership, Thailand Elite visa and family privileges including an onsite preschool and international school access. To meet rising demand, Banyan Group has also established dedicated sales teams in the UAE and Saudi Arabia to serve growing Middle East interest in Phuket’s real estate market.

Global Recognition and Accolades

In the past six months, Banyan Group has garnered over 100 industry accolades, including more than 20 honours across categories in the Travel + Leisure Luxury Awards Asia Pacific 2025. Its flagship brand, Banyan Tree, was voted the #2 Best Hotel Brand by readers, while Dhawa Ihuru was recognised among the Best House Reefs in the Maldives. The Group also celebrated eight Forbes Travel Guide Star Award winners. Additionally, Banyan Group Residences was named Thailand’s Most Awarded Developer for the second consecutive year, with 15 wins at the Asia-Pacific Property Awards 2025–26.

17/07/2025

The Xixia Imperial Tombs were inscribed on the World Heritage List on July 11 during the 47th session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee in Paris, France. This marks China’s 60th World Heritage site.

Located at the foot of Helan Mountain in Yinchuan, northwest China’s Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, the Xixia Imperial Tombs represent the largest, highest-ranking, and best-preserved archaeological remains of the Xixia Dynasty (1038-1227).
The heritage area encompasses nine imperial mausoleums, 271 subordinate tombs, one architectural complex at the northern end, and 32 flood control facilities.

Through nearly half a century of excavation, over 7,100 exquisite artifacts have been unearthed, including a gilded bronze ox and a glazed Chiwen. These findings vividly showcase the features of Xixia civilization.

The UNESCO World Heritage Committee recognized the Xixia Imperial Tombs as an outstanding testament to multicultural fusion.

Their spatial layout, design philosophy, and architectural forms inherited the Tang (618-907) and Song (960-1279) dynasties’ imperial mausoleum systems while integrating Buddhist beliefs and ancient local ethnic customs. This created unique funerary traditions and demonstrated the dynasty’s significant role in cultural and commercial exchanges along the Silk Road during the 11th to 13th centuries.

The Chinese government’s tremendous efforts and outstanding achievements in protecting the cultural heritage of the Xixia Imperial Tombs were highly commended by the Committee.

Since being designated as a National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit in 1988, the site has established comprehensive laws, regulations, and a management system.

Particularly since 2000, in collaboration with professional institutions, 60 major reinforcement projects have been successfully implemented on the tombs themselves. These have essentially eliminated instability risks and surface erosion issues affecting the imperial mausoleums and main subordinate tombs.

Furthermore, the removal of approximately 100,000 square meters of buildings and modern facilities within the heritage zone, combined with the establishment of a comprehensive monitoring and early-warning platform, has effectively ensured the site’s authenticity, integrity, and preservation environment.

International scholars point out that the Xixia Imperial Tombs serve as crucial physical evidence for studying ancient ethnic relations, architectural arts, and funerary traditions in China. Their successful inscription enriches the diversity of global cultural heritage.

Dusit International, one of Thailand’s leading hotel and property development companies, has expanded its global hospita...
14/07/2025

Dusit International, one of Thailand’s leading hotel and property development companies, has expanded its global hospitality portfolio with the official launch of Dusit Hotels – its ninth hotel brand – designed to deliver tailored upper-upscale experiences that balance brand consistency with the unique needs of each market in strategic city and leisure destinations worldwide.

Already introduced at three operating hotels – Dusit Hotel Doha, Qatar; Dusit Le Palais Tu Hoa, Hanoi, Vietnam; and Dusit Hotel AG Park, Chengdu, China – with another distinctive property, Dusit Hotel Greenhills, Manila, Philippines, signed and set to open in 2026, the new brand has already marked its presence in key markets across Asia and the Middle East, laying a strong foundation for future growth.

Created in response to the growing demand from hotel owners and developers for distinctive properties that combine international standards with a strong sense of local identity, Dusit Hotels is positioned to deliver memorable guest experiences rooted in the unique cultural and physical context of each destination – all underpinned by Dusit’s signature Thai-inspired gracious hospitality.

Defined by a timeless, warm, and welcoming aesthetic, and guided by the tagline “Distinctly Elevated, Perfected by Place,” Dusit Hotels are crafted with the soul of each location in mind and designed to offer superior levels of comfort for business and leisure travellers of all generations. Public spaces feature curated art and locally inspired details that enhance the sense of place, while integrated smart technologies enrich the stay experience.

With a target range of 120 to 300 keys per property, Dusit Hotels is ideally suited for conversions and purpose-built developments that seek to balance refined comfort and contemporary design with market-relevant facilities, such as destination dining, multi-functional event spaces, and wellness offerings tailored to today’s travellers.

At each location, Dusit Hotels has demonstrated its ability to deliver refined, upper-upscale experiences rooted in local character and contemporary elegance.

Located by Hanoi’s West Lake, the 207-key Dusit Le Palais Tu Hoa, Hanoi blends Thai-inspired gracious service with Vietnamese heritage, drawing inspiration from the legacy of Princess Từ Hoa, who famously left the royal court to teach silk weaving to the local people, to offer a unique cultural connection through its design, storytelling, and curated dining experiences.

In Chengdu, the 248-key Dusit Hotel AG Park, Chengdu embraces its natural setting amidst the scenic surrounds of Tianfu Agricultural Expo Park with guided nature-based activities, farm-to-table dining, and sustainability-led programming aligned with Dusit’s group-wide sustainability initiative, Tree of Life, all contributing to a guest experience that’s both mindful and memorable.

Dusit Hotel Doha, meanwhile, with 261 well-appointed guestrooms and suites, plus 96 elegant apartments in the heart of Doha’s vibrant West Bay area, has carved a niche in the Qatari capital’s competitive hospitality landscape by offering warm, personalised service, a variety of international dining options, and wellness experiences delivered through Dusit’s signature Devarana Wellness concept. From in-room rituals to a full-floor spa, the hotel demonstrates how Dusit Hotels can thoughtfully integrate well-being into the guest journey in a way that is meaningful, accessible, and market-relevant.

The latest signing under the Dusit Hotels brand – Dusit Hotel Greenhills, Manila – is set to open in Q4 2026. Occupying the top 10 floors of Primex Tower, a landmark 50-storey mixed-use development in Metro Manila’s San Juan City, the 200-key hotel will feature premium facilities, including Benjarong Thai restaurant, an all-day dining restaurant, a rooftop bar, a rooftop swimming pool, and a ballroom with spectacular city views.

Together, these properties illustrate the brand’s versatility and appeal – bringing Dusit’s gracious hospitality and service excellence to life in distinctive ways, guided by a consistent upper-upscale positioning.

“Our latest brand has been carefully developed to meet the evolving needs of both hotel owners and modern travellers alike,” said Mr Gilles Cretallaz, Chief Operating Officer, Dusit International. “As we continue to reposition the Dusit Thani brand firmly within the luxury segment, Dusit Hotels marks a strategic expansion of our presence in the upper-upscale space, reinforcing our evolution across the lodging spectrum. This new brand allows us to bring our unique Thai-inspired gracious hospitality to a broader range of properties, while giving owners the scope to tailor experiences to their specific markets – all backed by our proven systems, global distribution, and operational excellence. With a strong focus on comfort, character, and locality, each hotel will resonate deeply with domestic and international guests seeking purposeful, memorable stays.”

Dusit’s global portfolio currently comprises 294 properties across 18 countries, including 55 hotels and resorts and 239 luxury villa rentals. The company’s nine brands span the lodging spectrum from affordable lifestyle to bespoke luxury. Alongside Dusit Hotels, the group’s other brands include Devarana – Dusit Retreats (Wellness Luxury), Dusit Thani (Bespoke Luxury), Dusit Collection (Character Luxury), dusitD2 (Lifestyle Upscale), Dusit Princess (Upper Midscale), ASAI Hotels (Lifestyle Midscale), Dusit Suites (Lifestyle Long Stay), and Elite Havens (Luxury Villa Rentals).

Across its portfolio, Dusit has already signed 14 new properties this year and has over 60 in the pipeline, reflecting strong demand for its distinctive hospitality offerings worldwide. Dusit Hotels is expected to continue this momentum, with strong developer interest in key markets.



“With three Dusit Hotels already in operation and another distinctive property in the pipeline, our newest brand has already resonated strongly with our target market as well as development partners,” said Mr Siradej Donavanik, Vice President – Development (Global). “Reflecting strong demand for this offering, we anticipate signing eight additional Dusit Hotels within the next two years, in key gateway destinations, both cities and resorts. For developers seeking a refined, versatile, and future-ready concept with proven performance and global support, Dusit Hotels presents a compelling opportunity.”
