 One of these six destinations will be hosted from August 12-15, 2026, at [The Naka Island, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Phuket](https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/pyxlc-the-naka-island-a-luxury-collection-resort-and-spa-phuket/overview/),
the five-star sanctuary nestled on an idyllic island in the Andaman Sea, where some
of the region’s leading Michelin-starred chefs will join hands for four nights of

 **_A Gathering of Gastronomic Visionaries_**

 The Luxury Dining Series brings together visionary guest chefs Duangporn “Bo” Songvisava

 They will join The Naka Island, Phuket’s own highly acclaimed Chef Joseph William

Phulay Bay, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, Krabi, and Mixologist Fransiska Siregar from
The St. Regis Jakarta—for a series of mesmerizing, multi-hand dining and cocktail
experiences spanning four engaging, interactive evenings.
