Outrigger Laguna Phuket Beach Resort, a TCEB-certified Mice venue in Laguna Phuket, has announced the opening of a new meeting and events centre in January 2020.
The flexible options that the new facility provides are set to transform the award-winning beachfront resort into “the complete meeting venue,” says general manager, Tony Pedroni.
The new Similan Ballroom meetings and events centre will offer 640 square metres of flexible meeting and exhibition space including a pillar-less ballroom with six-metre high ceilings with movable partition walls. The new venue features audio-visual technical excellence with complimentary high-speed wi-fi throughout.
The main ballroom (at 448 sqm) can be easily separated into three multi-purpose function spaces to create six dedicated meetings rooms.
The new complex has been designed to target the meeting sector across Asia Pacific, local business gatherings in Phuket, and major weddings.
The new set-up features a large pre-function area, a VIP lounge, space for 350 guests theatre-style, and includes the resort’s existing three meeting rooms totalling 320 sqm.
The new standalone convention centre has a dedicated private entrance to the left of the resort lobby to ensure ease of access, group privacy and event flexibility.
