Notice of Data Security Incident

On 14th October 2021, we were made aware of an alleged cyber-attack threatening the security of the Centara Hotels & Resorts network. Immediately after receiving the notification, we appointed a reputable, digital forensic consultant to deploy an investigation to identify and validate the compromised data.

After the extensive and thorough forensic evaluation required to establish the veracity and details of the claim, we can confirm that a breach impacting a limited section of our network has occurred, with the general personal data of some of our customers – understood to be mostly their names and booking information, and in minor cases their phone numbers and email addresses, or some other contact information and IDs – being accessed by an unlawful and unauthorised organisation. Whilst the breach has been successfully contained, the investigation into the source, root cause and complete extent of the incident remains ongoing and we will provide more information when it becomes available.

We treat personal data and privacy with the highest levels of importance and care, and as a precautionary measure, we are asking affected guests to change their passwords as soon as possible, and to remain aware of any suspicious or unsolicited calls and/or emails requesting personal information. We can confirm that we at Centara Hotels & Resorts will not be contacting you to ask for any personal identifiable information.

Should you have any specific enquiries, you can contact our team via the following channels:

Our customers’ safety and trust are something we value of the highest importance. We are dedicated to ensuring that personal data is always kept safe, and accessible only lawfully and with our guests’ consent where applicable. We regret that this has not happened in this instance, and we are taking every possible action to further improve our security measures and prevent such a malicious attack in the future.

We will provide an update as soon as we learn more.
