Marriott International announced the appointment of Piotr Madej as the new general manager of The Andaman, a Luxury Collection Resort, Langkawi. He brings a wealth of operational as well as sales and marketing experiences to this exciting new role where he will oversee all management functions at the resort and will be instrumental in driving further revenue growth and guest satisfaction while maintaining the hotel’s status as one of the region’s leading resorts.

With over 18 years of hotel management experience, he had worked across Europe before taking the role of the executive assistant manager of a Luxury Collection hotel in Warsaw, Hotel Bristol, where he was in-charge of leading the day to day operations and developing guest satisfaction strategies.

The Andaman Resort marks his second Luxury Collection property in his journey within Marriott. “It is a very interesting brand that truly defines the destination. Arriving here, I am awed to learn about the indigenous experiences and representation that the property is already offering and there is so much more that we can offer to the global explorers staying with us,” he said.

The stunning resort that’s set between a 10-million-year-old rainforest and the exquisite Datai Bay is also his first assignment in Asia.
