Meliá Hotels International is expanding its luxury presence across Asia with a series of landmark openings from late 2025 through 2026.
The growth is led by the debut of Paradisus by Meliá Bali in December 2025, marking the company’s first all-inclusive luxury resort in Asia.
Paradisus by Meliá Bali will introduce the brand’s Destination Inclusive concept, offering curated experiences that immerse guests in Bali’s culture, nature and wellness. The resort will feature The Reserve adults-only enclave, Family Concierge, Kidsdom club, Yourway club for teenagers, a water park and modern sports facilities.
In 2Q2026, Meliá Serenity Cam Ranh Beach Resort will open along Vietnam’s Long Beach as a retreat for personalised well-being. Families will enjoy pool villas and dedicated clubs for children and teenagers, while adults can relax at the YHI Spa and Level Pool. Later in 2026, Meliá Aurea Nha Trang will join the portfolio beside Villa Le Corail Gran Meliá, bringing beachfront hospitality to one of Vietnam’s key coastal destinations.
Over the next two years, Meliá Ba Vi Mountain Retreat, located in Ba Vi National Park near Hanoi, will be rebranded under The Meliá Collection. The transformation will highlight its French colonial and Vietnamese architectural blend amid a mountain setting. In Laos, the Grand Luang Prabang, Affiliated by Meliá, will also join The Meliá Collection, marking the brand’s debut in the country. Overlooking the Mekong River, the property combines colonial heritage with tranquil gardens in the UNESCO World Heritage city.
Opening in 2027, Gran Meliá Dubai Jumeirah will offer a Spanish-inspired luxury experience in Jumeirah 1. The resort will feature restaurants from globally recognised names including Zuma, Novikov, Park Chinois, Cazibeli, and Rubia Gallega, alongside an infinity pool, full-service spa, wellness programmes, and direct beach and marina access.
Following the opening of Meliá Hotels & Resorts in the Maldives, the group will expand with Amilla Maldives, Member of The Meliá Collection, its second property in the country. Located in Baa Atoll, the resort will feature private villas, a spa and leisure centre, and multiple dining options, with direct access to coral reefs and popular dive sites.
“Luxury travel in Asia is evolving rapidly. It’s no longer defined by exclusivity, but by meaningful connection and sense of place,” said Ignacio Martin, managing director, Asia Pacific, Meliá Hotels International. “With one in every three Meliá openings worldwide positioned in the luxury segment, we’re accelerating that transformation.”
