The hotel will feature 220 rooms and 83 luxury Rosewood Residences (serviced apartments).

In the Philippines, Rosewood Hermana Mayor will be an ultra-luxury resort on a private island 10km from the mainland. Opening in 2023, Rosewood Hermana Mayor will feature 128 villa accommodations and additional Rosewoood Residences for private ownership. This property will also mark the brand’s first entry into the Philippines.

Come 2023, India will be home to a New World Jaipur Resort, which will be the brand and group’s first step into the Indian subcontinent. Owned by Keemaya Resorts and Spas, New World Jaipur Resort will be the first all-villa luxury resort in the city, featuring 181 villas and extensive leisure and event facilities.
