2 bedroom suite at Anantara Siam |
For hundreds of years throughout Thailand, people would leave a jar of water outside their house to provide refreshment and extend a welcome to the passing traveller. Anantara is taken from an ancient Sanskrit word that means 'without end', symbolising this sharing of water and the heartfelt hospitality that lies at the core of every Anantara experience.
From lush jungles to pristine beaches and legendary deserts to cosmopolitan cities, Anantara currently boasts over 30 stunning properties located in Thailand, the Maldives, Bali, Vietnam, China, Cambodia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Zambia and Mozambique; with future properties to open China, Sri Lanka, Oman, Mauritius, Laos, Tunisia, Morocco and the United Arab Emirates.
