Inside the World of Kerzner International
This year, we’re delighted to welcome Kerzner International - the visionary group behind Atlantis, One&Only, SIRO, and Rare Finds for three of our inVOYAGE events next year. Known for setting the global benchmark in hospitality, Kerzner continues to lead with innovation, creativity, and a true understanding of what today’s travellers value most.
We caught up with Dorsai Khagani, Vice President Global Commercial, Kerzner International to talk about what makes their brands so distinctive, why events like inVOYAGE matter, and what’s next for luxury travel.
Emily, inVOYAGE: Thank you for sitting down with us today and we’re incredibly excited to be having you join us at three of our events next year.
Here at Kerzner International, you work with some of the most recognisable names in luxury hospitality. When you look across Atlantis, One&Only, SIRO, and Rare Finds, what connects these brands under one vision?
Dorsai, Kerzner International: At Kerzner, our brands each have their own distinct character, but they are united by a clear philosophy: creating exceptional destinations that are memorable, emotionally resonant, and consistently ahead of guest expectations. We have always been a bold and disruptive force in the industry, pushing boundaries and setting new standards for what luxury hospitality can be. Whether it is the iconic energy of Atlantis, the ultra-luxury craftsmanship of One&Only, the performance-led focus of SIRO, or the individuality of Rare Finds, every experience is designed with intention and a commitment to innovation. What connects our portfolio is a shared drive to elevate the guest journey and deliver moments that stay with our guests long after they leave.
Emily, inVOYAGE: With so much ambition behind the portfolio, what made you decide that now was the right moment to join us at three inVOYAGE events next year?
Dorsai, Kerzner International: inVOYAGE brings together an audience that values creativity, collaboration, and forward-thinking experiences, which aligns strongly with our own approach. We have always believed in engaging with partners who share our appetite for bold ideas and innovative thinking. Being present at three events allows us to connect more meaningfully with the leaders shaping the future of luxury incentives and group travel. It gives us a platform to showcase the breadth of our portfolio, strengthen relationships, and demonstrate how Kerzner’s disruptive spirit and pioneering destinations can elevate events of every scale.
Emily, inVOYAGE: The way we define “luxury” has evolved. From where you sit, how is Kerzner evolving to meet these new guest expectations?
Dorsai, Kerzner International: Luxury today is about authenticity, personalisation, and meaningful connection, and Kerzner has always been at the forefront of redefining what that looks like. We continue to challenge conventions by creating experiences that feel crafted rather than curated, with more space, more privacy, and more intention. Guests are seeking a deeper understanding of the story of a place, and they want experiences that feel both transformative and genuinely personal. Across our portfolio, we are responding with elevated wellness concepts, immersive culinary journeys, purposeful adventure, and design that inspires a strong sense of place. Our commitment to bold ideas and continuous innovation ensures we are evolving in step with our guests while staying true to the timeless qualities of world-class hospitality.
Emily, inVOYAGE: What you’re describing - more intention, more storytelling, more emotional connection - feels like such a natural fit for incentives and events. How do those experiences shape your broader strategy across the portfolio?
Dorsai, Kerzner International: Incentives and events are essential to our strategy because they highlight the very best of what makes Kerzner unique: exceptional service, unforgettable settings, and experiences that genuinely inspire. These programmes attract high-value travellers, build long-term advocacy, and allow companies to celebrate their people in environments that are both extraordinary and energising. As a brand known for bold concepts and disruptive innovation, we see incentives as an important platform to showcase the creativity, flexibility, and distinctive spirit of our destinations. As we grow into new markets and unveil new properties, incentives and events will continue to play a pivotal role in driving awareness and commercial success.
Emily, inVOYAGE: With all of that momentum building, it feels like there’s a lot to be excited about. As you look ahead, what’s inspiring you most as we head into 2026?
Dorsai, Kerzner International: We see 2026 as a landmark year for Kerzner. We are expanding into new destinations that will once again challenge and redefine the expectations of luxury in their markets. At the same time, we continue to enrich the experiences across our existing portfolio with bold ideas, new partnerships, and innovative concepts that set us apart. I am particularly energised by the momentum across all segments, from leisure to incentives to performance-led travel, and by the growing desire from travellers for the kind of transformative, imaginative experiences that Kerzner is known for. It is a year filled with opportunity, creativity, and continued evolution for our brands.
Kerzner International joins us across three inVOYAGE events in 2026 - representing the best of connection-driven luxury hospitality.
