Meliá Hotels accelerates luxury expansion across Asia through 2026

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.

Meliá Serenity Cam Ranh, opening in 2Q2026, will offer beachfront villas, family facilities and wellness experiences along Vietnam’s Long Beach

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.

Set for 2026, Gran Meliá Dubai Jumeirah will open on Port de la Mer peninsula, featuring Zuma Dubai Beachhouse, Novikov Beach and Park Chinois, alongside an infinity pool, spa, and marina access. In the Maldives, Meliá Amilla Fushi in Baa Atoll will bring the group’s resort concept to private villas surrounded by coral reefs and world-class 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.”
