IHG Hotels & Resorts has signed an agreement to develop Six Senses Camp Korongo, a 480-acre resort and residential community near Kanab in southern Utah. Scheduled to open in 2029, the property will include 41 tented pavilions and 12 branded residences.
The resort offers views of nearby national parks, including Zion, Bryce Canyon, Grand Canyon and Arches. Guest activities will include hiking, canyoneering and stargazing, with access to Six Senses Spa.
“Six Senses Camp Korongo will blend the brand’s distinctive values and touchpoints in a unique location while also underscoring our growth plan for the brand in the Americas. As outdoor exploration, natural connection and wellness continue to inspire luxury travelers, we’re delighted to bring this desert adventure to life alongside the exceptional team at Canyon Global Partners,” said Jolyon Bulley, CEO, Americas, IHG Hotels & Resorts.
The project is a partnership with Canyon Global Partners, based in Larkspur, Calif., and the design is led by South Africa–based Luxury Frontiers with sustainable and nature-centered principles.
“Southern Utah’s combination of spectacular topography, recreational opportunity and tranquility are a perfect match for Six Senses, whose distinct take on hospitality is rooted in wellness and sustainability. In aligning our nearly two decades of ultra-luxury resort development with IHG’s experienced luxury brand vision, we’re confident Six Senses Camp Korongo will quickly become a coveted destination that sets the standard for top-scale hotels and residences,” said Homi Vazifdar, founder of Canyon Global Partners.
“Six Senses Camp Korongo brings forward our distinctly original approach to both resorts and residences – places to truly connect with the landscape. Owners and guests will share a rhythm shaped by nature that restores as much as it delights, honoring southern Utah’s unique setting while delivering the thoughtful, regenerative hospitality expected from Six Senses,” said Neil Palmer, COO, Six Senses.
Six Senses Camp Korongo is part of IHG’s expansion of its luxury and lifestyle portfolio in the Americas.
