Wow- a big CONGRATULATIONS to the Brando on this well deserved honor!

The Brando: A Three Key Michelin Guide Resort

We are excited to announce that The Brando has been awarded with the exclusive top honor of becoming a Three Key Michelin Star Resort! One of only two resorts in all of the Pacific to be recognized for this level of excellence!

The MICHELIN Keys were created for the traveler who seeks more than beauty, for those who wish to stand in places that shape them. The Brando was chosen for its “extraordinary character and unforgettable experience”, where every element, from the villas to the cuisine to the silence, reflects a profound connection to its rich heritage.

 "The MICHELIN Keys honor places that stir something deeper,” says Christophe Adam, General Manager of The Brando.

“They ask not what a hotel has, but what it means to the land, to the culture, and to those who walk its shores.”

Each Key reflects a global standard of excellence.

One Key recognizes a truly special stay.
Two Keys distinguish an exceptional experience.
Three Keys honor an extraordinary stay.

About The Michelin Keys:
  • Keys are earned, not something a hotel buys.  The selection process by anonymous Michelin inspectors.
Criteria for awarding keys: 
  • Excellence in architecture and interior design.
  • Quality and consistency of service.
  • Overall personality and character of the property.
  • Value for the price (ie: they stay offers value relative to cost).
  • The hotel's contributions to its neighborhood or setting (local context, sense of place).
