Previously serving as Senior Director of Operations and General Manager of Centara Karon, David has made significant contributions to the resort's operational success and strategic growth. His exemplary leadership was recognised in 2017 when he received the General Manager of the Year award for his outstanding performance at Centara Grand Beach Resort & Villas Hua Hin.
Hailing from Australia, David has called Thailand home for the past 12 years, immersing himself in the local culture and hospitality landscape.
His industry journey began with the Educational Institute of the American Hotel & Motel Association, laying a strong foundation for a career marked by dedication and extensive training in sales, operations, and management. His commitment to professional growth and excellence has not only shaped his trajectory but has also significantly impacted the success of the Centara brand.
“David’s extensive background in the hospitality sector, combined with his unwavering commitment to Centara’s mission, positions him as an invaluable asset during this pivotal moment for our brand and the reopening of our flagship Centara Karon Resort Phuket,” said Michael Henssler, Chief Operations Officer of Centara Hotels & Resorts.
“His deep knowledge of our properties and passion for exceptional guest experiences will be instrumental in propelling this resort into its next chapter of excellence.”
“Joining Centara has been a remarkable journey for me, and I am truly honoured to take on these new roles. I believe that a hotel is more than just a place to stay; it’s a sanctuary for our guests,” said David Martens, Vice President of Operations and General Manager of Centara Karon Resort Phuket.
“As we prepare to open Centara Karon Resort Phuket, I look forward to creating an atmosphere where every guest feels a deep connection to the beauty of our surroundings, the warmth of our hospitality, and the experiences that resonate long after their visit.”
Set to open on 1st December 2024, the new Centara Karon Resort Phuket is an oasis for all ages combining modern comfort and island beauty. The resort’s refreshed design, diverse array of accommodation and private villas, and exceptional amenities make it an ideal destination for families, couples and leisure travellers alike.
