Anantara to open seven resorts in 2011

Anantara is expanding its portfolio across Asia, the Indian Ocean and the Middle East to encompass 50 properties within the next five years.

The group currently boasts seven thriving resorts in Thailand, two in the Maldives, one in Bali and two Middle East additions (12 in total), and anticipates the debut of seven new resorts in China, the Maldives, Bali, Oman and the UAE by the end of 2011.

Such growth reflects a 60% expansion of the portfolio in existing and new markets.
