Anantara Resorts makes its first move in Africa

Anantara Resorts is making its first move in Africa with the management of two unique five-star resorts in Morocco. Anantara Marrakech Resort & Spa and Anantara Mogador Resort & Spa will both open in 2011. Construction work will begin in late 2009. Owned by the Thailand-based Minor International, Anantara offers indigenous and culturally evocative luxury resorts in sought-after destinations with an emphasis on nature, gardens, space and sensual harmony. The rooms are luxuriously appointed and are usually housed in villa-type or low-rise accommodation.
