- Villa Feltrinelli, Lake Garda, Italy - envisionized and hotelized by Zechas former partner

- Trisara, Phuket, Thailand - envisionized and managed by former Amanpuri Opening GM

- Como Shambala Estate, Bali, Indonesia - feels like an Aman, only a little bit more wellness-emphasis

With Trisara , think he 's the only one left there from the Amanpuri opening team but may still have a few ex- Amanpuri

When CSE was Begawan Giri, it was close to Aman but not as ' warm ', certainly missing some ' x ' factor but food was a plus compared to what it has become now
