Secret Retreats, which represents some of Asia's finest boutique residences, hotels and boats is excited to welcome new members Soneva Fushi and Soneva Kiri to their collection.

Soneva Fushi and Soneva Kiri's exclusive boutique hideaway retreats are located in some of the world's most exotic settings and offer a Robinson Crusoe-like experience. These two new destinations coupled with the founder's Sonu and Eva Shivdasani's philosophy of creating hidden sanctuaries that are built in harmony with nature is in line with Secret Retreats' vision and values.

"The growing uniformity of luxury hotel chains around the world has deprived today's travellers of authenticity and individuality. Secret Retreats vision is to set a new reference point in the hospitality industry through advocating its exclusive boutique hideaways that reflect the essence and soul of a place while promoting bespoke travel experiences that provide authentic interactions with the local people." - Stephane Junca, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Secret Retreats

About Secret Retreats:
Secret Retreats is an awakening to a new dimension, an immersion to Asia's "jiva". Representing small, hidden jewels filled with charm and character, the collection includes boutique hotels, villas, camps and boats all across Asia. Refuges for the soul, each place is unique but an invisible line seamlessly connects them to one another-taste, discretion, refinement, and a passion for their culture. Their mission is to convey the beauty of life in its bare simplicity with no artifice, no additives - our properties encompass a marriage of a place and people. Artisans of life, each owner in his own individual and unique manner showcases his country's most precious gifts, its singular diversity. From the onsens and ryokans in Japan to the jungle kutiyas in India, from the Korean hanok to the villas on the beaches of Bali and Lombok, discretion in these private domains mirrors exceptional beauty and tranquillity.

Secret Retreats' sole ambition is to unveil the Essence of Asia.
