COMO Hotels and Resorts hosts bespoke FAM experience at COMO Point Yamu for 8 Indian travel advisors

Delhi, Oct 08: COMO Hotels and Resorts, in partnership with One Rep Global, its strategic India representation partner, recently hosted an exclusive familiarisation experience for 8 leading Indian travel advisors at COMO Point Yamu, Phuket, from September 20–24, 2026.

Designed to provide the travel trade with firsthand exposure to the resort and its distinctive experiences, the four-night programme showcased COMO Point Yamu’s approach to luxury through wellness, gastronomy, personalised service and immersive experiences. Set on Phuket’s secluded east-coast peninsula overlooking Phang Nga Bay and the Andaman Sea, the resort offers a distinctive perspective on Phuket beyond its traditional beach destinations.

The curated FAM itinerary brought together a combination of COMO Shambhala wellness experiences, culinary discovery, cultural exploration and island experiences. Advisors experienced a COMO Shambhala massage, yoga, sound healing and a beach walk, alongside dining experiences at La Sirena and Nahmyaa. The programme also included a Rang Yai Island beach getaway and a tour of Phuket Old Town, offering participants a broader understanding of the destination and the experiences that can be incorporated into bespoke itineraries.

The experience also provided advisors with an opportunity to undertake a detailed hotel inspection, while experiencing COMO Point Yamu’s wellness-led approach and culinary offerings firsthand. The resort’s La Sirena restaurant combines Mediterranean-influenced cuisine with COMO Shambhala’s healthful culinary philosophy, while Nahmyaa celebrates the flavours of Thai street food.

Through the FAM, COMO Hotels and Resorts and One Rep Global aimed to strengthen engagement with India’s luxury travel trade by providing advisors with direct product knowledge and a deeper understanding of COMO Point Yamu’s positioning for Indian travellers seeking wellness, experiential travel, culinary discovery and relaxed luxury in Phuket.

Hemant Mediratta, Founder & CEO, One Rep Global, said:

 “India’s luxury travel market is increasingly moving towards experiences that offer a sense of discovery, wellbeing and meaningful connection with a destination. COMO Point Yamu brings these elements together through its distinctive setting, wellness philosophy, culinary experiences and access to the lesser-explored side of Phuket. Bringing our travel trade partners here allows them to experience the property beyond a traditional hotel inspection and understand how its experiences can be thoughtfully integrated into bespoke itineraries for Indian travellers.”

Andy Kunz, Managing Director, COMO Point Yamu, said:

 “We were delighted to welcome eight valued travel advisors from India to COMO Point Yamu. The FAM gave our partners an opportunity to experience the property, our COMO Shambhala wellness philosophy, culinary offerings and the experiences available across Phuket firsthand. India remains an important market for COMO Hotels and Resorts, and we look forward to building on these relationships and welcoming more Indian guests to experience COMO Point Yamu.”

Hema Chhabria, Partner and Co-Owner, Intime Travels, said:

“As a travel advisor, I was particularly impressed by how COMO Point Yamu caters to different traveller profiles while maintaining a strong sense of privacy and personalised luxury. The private pool villas, with their spacious layouts and spectacular ocean views, are especially well suited to couples, while the kids’ and teens’ club and range of activities make the resort equally appealing for families. The COMO Shambhala Spa, with its stunning cliffside setting and signature treatments, was another highlight. Experiencing the property firsthand has given me greater confidence in recommending COMO Point Yamu to clients looking for a refined, wellness-led and experiential Phuket escape.”

The FAM further strengthens COMO Hotels and Resorts’ engagement with the Indian travel trade, with One Rep Global continuing to build awareness and relationships with key luxury travel advisors across the market. By offering firsthand exposure to its properties and experiences, COMO aims to equip its trade partners with the knowledge and confidence to curate more personalised and experience-led holidays for Indian travellers.
