We are very happy to have Michael Boele at Paradise Koh Yao. Michael started in the hotel business as a Food & Beverage Executive, with subsequent senior management assignments in leading Boutique style properties at Abercombie & Kent, moving on to the French and the Swiss Alps in Klosters and Courchevel. As a Hotel Consultant and Corporate Chef with Saga Holidays on a world wide assignment, he traveled the world reviewing and improving standards of contracted properties.

He then finally followed his calling to permanently relocate to Thailand, a country he is familiar with for over 20 years, both in work and culture. With his culinary background and extensive experience in the front of the house operations, Michael promises to lead the resort to new culinary heights and elevate The Paradise Koh Yao to new dimensions in services to assure highest guest satisfaction.
