The Amaz\u00f4nia weekend kicked off just before sunset on Saturday with a live music concert, followed by a painting session by Trey Hurst, the Bangkok-based visual artist and designer. Attendees chilled out and sipped cocktails, such as caipirinhas, on the Coliseum Lawn, The Slate’s enchanting outdoor amphitheatre surrounded by swaying palms and sparkling pools.<\/p>\n

Guests were then treated to a bountiful buffet dinner amid the fragrant tropical gardens, including many authentic delicacies that transported diners\u2019 taste buds to the lively streets of Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires and Mexico City. This was followed by a live performance by the Amaz\u00f4nia band and a capoeira dance which left spectators spellbound! Revellers then danced under the stars to live music from Amaz\u00f4nia and DJ Marcos. Then on Sunday, a blissful Sunday brunch was accompanied by surprise performances.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur inaugural Vibrations weekend was a great success and I would like to thank everyone \u2013 our guests, performers and partners \u2013 for embracing the Latin spirit and making it such an inspiring occasion. Our lifestyle-seeking clientele are keen to discover other cultures and we always strive to weave art, fashion, music and heritage into every aspect of our guest experiences. I look forward to welcoming visitors back for our next VIBRATIONS weekend later this year,\u201d said the hotel\u2019s co-founder and owner, Krystal Prakaikaew Na-Ranong (or \u201cKhun Moo\u201d as she is known to her friends).<\/p>\n
