Nestled in the luminous waterscape of Clear Water Bay, where coconut breezes whisper and pristine sands meet crystalline waves, Kimpton Aqeos Hainan boasts a privileged location amidst rich natural and cultural resources. As the first Kimpton-branded resort in Greater China, the design challenge centered on harmonizing the brand’s distinct DNA with the cultural essence of Lingshui, while establishing a unique identity to differentiate it from regional competitors and set a benchmark for future Kimpton properties in Greater China.
Inspired by a muse - a modern traveler, collector, and eco-conscious lifestyle enthusiast - the design crafts an immersive journey of curated escape. Through minimalist contemporary aesthetics and innovative reinterpretations of local culture, the hotel integrates Kimpton’s global ethos of avant-garde luxury living, articulating a sanctuary that balances seclusion with a return to life’s essence. The narrative unfolds around this muse, shaping spaces that evoke bespoke craftsmanship, discovery, wandering, leisurely strolls, and serene repose. Each zone reflects a modernist’s impressionistic interpretation of coastal living.
