Taj Debut's New Resort Brand Vivanta

Phuket has seen the positioning proposition work in the context of Twin Palms and now Cape Sienna, so it's yet to be seen if chains can deliver more personal guest experiences without the heavy reliance on bulk standard operating procedures and over institutionalized approach.
