The SIS Kata – Phuket
Design Concept: “Kata Impressions” The SIS Kata is a contemporary hillside hotel near Kata Beach, Phuket. The hotel recently refreshed its look with a new design direction called “Kata Impressions.” This concept brings the essence of Kata—its natural beauty and local way of life—into the hotel’s spaces. What is Kata Impressions? 🌊 Kata Impressions aims to capture the spirit of Kata and translate it into design. Kata is more than a beach; it is a set of lasting impressions. Guests see the warm morning sun, the shifting colors of the sea, and the calm sunsets that close the day. The idea also comes from the local community. Life in Kata flows with the rhythm of the sea. By weaving these details into design, the hotel helps guests feel a deeper connection to the place. Elements of the Design ✨ The update under Kata Impressions shows in both the rooms and shared areas. The design team redesigned the rooms to feel open and bright. Clean tones create calm, while accents reflect the sky and sea. The infinity pool takes center stage. It opens a wide view of the Andaman Sea and blurs the line between water and sky. Shared spaces, such as the rooftop bar and daybeds, now offer comfort and practical use. They also give guests easy spots to relax or capture photos. The team chose colors and materials inspired by Kata. Sea blues, natural greens, and warm sunset tones mix with wood and stone to create a natural feel. Art and decorative details also reflect the coastal lifestyle of Phuket. These touches keep the design linked to its location. Impressions of Kata 🌟 Kata Impressions proves that hotel design is more than style. It tells the story of a place. Guests at The SIS Kata enjoy comfort while staying close to the natural and cultural spirit of Kata. This approach makes every stay both pleasant and memorable. 📨 For more details, please contact:WhatsApp: +66611739494 👉 Follow more journeys: Andaman Passion Travel
