Phuket 9 May 2019 – ONYX Hospitality Group has appointed Paul Halford as General Manager of the soon-to-open OZO Phuket at Kata Beach.

In his current role, Paul will lead the pre-opening and positioning of the brand-new OZO in Phuket, scheduled to open in June 2019.

Commenting on his role, Mr. Halford said:

“We are absolutely delighted to open OZO Phuket, welcoming the first guests to experience our all-new hotel. OZO is a new holiday destination in Phuket, which is Thailand’s largest island and famously known as the ‘Pearl of the Andaman’. The resort has a fantastic design of in-room functions with the best sleep quality OZO has to offer, in addition to the energising breakfast selection and à la carte all-day dining at EAT, with Asian and international favourites. Guests will also enjoy a relaxation space and stay connected at Chill or spend quality time with family at the free-form main pool and Splash activity pool. The hotel’s location is amazing, with attractions and eateries for the whole family to enjoy, a relaxed vibe and the pristine white sands of Kata Beach just a short stroll away. We believe OZO Phuket will deliver quality service based on our core concept of ‘sleep, connect and explore’ for our guests.”
