Awei Metta — A New Definition of Urban Luxury in Yangon

Tucked within the leafy, gated grounds of Pun Hlaing Estate in Hlaing Tharyar Township — Yangon’s most prestigious residential and leisure development — Awei Metta opened its doors in 2019 with a vision that no other property in Myanmar had dared to attempt: to create a genuine urban golf resort within the city limits of Yangon, combining the intimacy of a boutique luxury hotel with a complete golf lifestyle offering, all on a meticulously landscaped 2.19-acre estate.

The concept works because every element has been considered with the precision of a well-played iron shot. 46 rooms — not 400 — ensuring that every guest receives the kind of attention that large hotels talk about but rarely deliver. A Golf Centre that makes the Pun Hlaing Golf Club — one of Myanmar’s finest championship courses, directly adjacent to the estate — more accessible and enjoyable than arriving as a stranger. A custom cigar room that is simply unlike anything else in Myanmar. A restaurant and private dining area where the kitchen has the freedom to work at the level it deserves because the covers are never overwhelming. And a swimming pool, bar, and conference facilities that complete a property capable of serving every occasion from a quiet business stay to a private celebration to a serious golf holiday.

The name carries the Burmese Buddhist concept of metta — loving-kindness — and it is not merely decorative. From the moment of arrival, Awei Metta operates with a warmth and attentiveness that the finest hotels in Southeast Asia would recognise and respect.

“In a city of grand hotels and budget guesthouses, Awei Metta occupies a category entirely of its own — the kind of intimate, meticulously considered luxury that makes every other stay feel slightly approximate by comparison.”

— Myanmar Luxury Travel Review, 2025

The Rooms — 46 Studies in Considered Luxury

With just 46 rooms across the property, Awei Metta operates at the scale where genuine personalisation becomes possible. Each room has been designed with the same care and attention to detail as a fine private residence — natural materials, curated art, and spatial generosity that rewards time spent inside as much as time spent exploring.

💡 Room Booking Tip — 2026: With only 46 rooms across the property, Awei Metta fills quickly during peak season (November–February) and around Myanmar’s major festivals and events. Always book at least 3–4 weeks ahead for your preferred room type. For golf holidays coinciding with Pun Hlaing tournament events, book 6–8 weeks ahead. Request a Golf View room at time of booking — availability is not guaranteed at check-in.

World-Class Facilities — Everything Within 2.19 Acres

What makes Awei Metta truly extraordinary is how much has been achieved within the physical constraints of its 2.19-acre estate. Every facility has been designed and positioned with an architect’s precision — nothing feels crowded, nothing feels afterthought, and nothing is missing.

The Golf Centre — Practice, Play & Improve

⛳ Golf

The Awei Metta Golf Centre is the beating heart of the resort’s identity — a dedicated golf facility that transforms Awei Metta from a luxury hotel near a golf course into a genuine golf destination in its own right. The centre serves both as a serious practice and improvement facility and as the seamless gateway to the Pun Hlaing Golf Club — one of Myanmar’s finest 18-hole championship layouts, located directly within the estate.

The Golf Centre’s facilities include a fully equipped practice bay with hitting mat and target net — perfect for warming up before a round or maintaining your game on travel days when a full round isn’t possible. A dedicated short game practice area allows chipping, pitching, and bunker practice that most golfers know makes the most measurable difference to their scorecard. Golf simulator technology offers the ability to play famous courses from around the world in air-conditioned comfort — particularly popular during the hottest midday hours when the outdoor course is at its most demanding.

The resort’s golf concierge team handles all Pun Hlaing Golf Club tee time bookings for guests, arranges caddies and equipment rental, coordinates transport to and from the clubhouse, and provides course briefings for first-time Pun Hlaing players. Guests of Awei Metta receive preferential green fee rates at Pun Hlaing Golf Club not available to external visitors.

The Restaurant & Private Dining Area

★ Signature Dining

Awei Metta’s restaurant is the kind of dining experience that makes guests change their dinner plans from the moment they read the menu. The kitchen operates with the creative freedom that only a boutique property of 46 covers can provide — the chef knows exactly how many guests are coming and has shopped the market that morning accordingly. The result is food that feels genuinely alive: fresh, seasonal, and impossible to replicate in a kitchen feeding 400 people a night.

The menu spans a considered selection of international favourites executed with precision and Myanmar dishes elevated to fine-dining standard — Shan State highland beef, Ayeyarwady river fish, Mon-style curries using herbs sourced from local markets, and desserts that celebrate Myanmar’s extraordinary tropical fruit with genuine culinary intelligence. The breakfast menu — available to all room guests — is one of the finest in Yangon, with both Western and Asian options prepared to order from a full kitchen rather than assembled from a buffet.

The Private Dining Area is Awei Metta’s most exclusive dining experience — a dedicated room for groups of 6–20 guests seeking complete privacy for a business dinner, family celebration, or romantic occasion. The private dining room can be configured to any format and the kitchen produces a custom menu in close consultation with the host. This is Yangon’s finest private dining experience outside of a personal chef arrangement.

The Bar — Yangon’s Most Refined Drinking Experience

★ Signature

The Awei Metta Bar sets the standard for what a luxury hotel bar should be — and almost never is. No background noise. No television screens. No bartenders who reached for the premix before you finished the order. What you find instead is a beautifully appointed room, a bar team that understands both the craft and the conversation, and a spirits selection that reflects genuine curation rather than distributor relationships.

The cocktail list has been developed specifically for the Awei Metta guest — classic cocktails executed with technical precision, house signatures using Myanmar botanicals and local spirits, and a non-alcoholic menu that is taken as seriously as everything else. The whisky selection is the finest in Yangon — a considered collection of single malts, Japanese whiskies, and American bourbons that rewards the serious enthusiast while remaining entirely approachable for the guest who simply wants an exceptional drink after a satisfying round of golf.

The bar flows naturally into the Cigar Room — and the pairing of the two is one of Awei Metta’s most deliberate and most celebrated design decisions. An evening that begins with a cocktail at the bar and transitions into a cigar in the dedicated room next door is one of the finest evenings available anywhere in Yangon.

The Swimming Pool — Calm, Cool & Beautifully Positioned

Leisure

The Awei Metta swimming pool is everything a resort pool should be and so rarely is: clean, calm, properly sized, and positioned beautifully within the estate’s tropical garden rather than wedged awkwardly between service entrances and car parks. Surrounded by mature planting that provides natural shade and complete visual privacy, the pool area is a genuine retreat within a retreat — the ideal destination for the hours between breakfast and the afternoon tee time, or for guests who have no interest in golf and simply wish to spend their day in serene, well-appointed surroundings.

Pool-side service — drinks, light meals, and cold towels — is provided throughout the day by the resort’s attentive team. Dawn swims, when the garden is cool and the pool has not yet caught the full heat of the Yangon morning, are a quiet daily ritual for many regular Awei Metta guests. The pool also provides the finest setting in the resort for Yangon’s spectacular tropical sunsets — the western garden catches the last light in a way that the room balconies, beautiful as they are, simply cannot match.

Conference & Meeting Rooms — Business Done Beautifully

Business

Awei Metta’s conference and meeting facilities offer something the large Yangon business hotels conspicuously fail to provide: a meeting environment that actually encourages clear thinking. The rooms are beautifully appointed, acoustically well-managed, properly proportioned for groups of 6–40 participants, and supported by a technology infrastructure — high-speed Wi-Fi, presentation systems, video conferencing, sound equipment — that functions reliably every time.

Beyond the room itself, what makes Awei Metta exceptional for business is everything around it. Catering by the resort’s kitchen — not a conference pack from a shared supplier — means that working lunches and coffee breaks are genuinely good. The natural privacy of the estate setting means sensitive discussions remain entirely confidential. And the ability to balance a full day of meetings with a round of golf at Pun Hlaing Golf Club in the late afternoon, dinner in the restaurant, and a cognac in the cigar room in the evening creates a corporate hospitality experience that Yangon’s large business hotels simply cannot replicate.

Awei Metta is the preferred venue for corporate retreats, board meetings, strategic planning days, client entertainment, and incentive groups for Yangon’s most discerning companies and international organisations.

🚬 The Custom Cigar Room — The Finest in Myanmar

There is one element of Awei Metta that generates more conversation among guests than any other — more than the Golf Centre, more than the restaurant, more even than the exceptional rooms. It is the Custom Cigar Room: Yangon’s most extraordinary dedicated cigar lounge, and one of the finest of its kind anywhere in Southeast Asia.

A Room Designed for One Purpose — Done Perfectly

The Cigar Room at Awei Metta is not a corner of the bar where smoking is permitted. It is a dedicated, purpose-built humidified lounge designed from the ground up around the needs of the serious cigar enthusiast — and the pleasures of the curious first-timer. The room’s custom humidor maintains the precise temperature and humidity required to preserve a curated selection of the world’s finest cigars: Havanas from Cuba’s most celebrated vitolas, Nicaraguan premium lines, Dominican masterworks, and a carefully chosen selection of Honduras and Ecuador productions that reward exploration.

The room itself is panelled in warm timber, furnished with deep leather seating, and lit at exactly the level that cigar appreciation requires — enough to examine the draw and the burn of the cigar, dim enough that the whole experience feels deliberately removed from the ordinary world outside. The ventilation system is engineered to keep the air in the room comfortable for extended sessions without ever feeling artificial or over-processed. There is no better room for a cigar in Myanmar.

🚖 Getting Here Smoothly — Expert Tip: Always tell your driver “Pun Hlaing Estate, Hlaing Tharyar” — not just “Awei Metta”. The estate is well-known to Yangon drivers, and giving the estate name ensures you arrive at the correct gate. The resort concierge will send GPS coordinates and gate instructions on booking confirmation. Allow extra time during Yangon’s notorious rush-hour traffic (7–9am and 4–7pm) if transferring from the airport or downtown hotels.

Frequently Asked Questions — Awei Metta Yangon

Where exactly is Awei Metta located in Yangon?

Awei Metta is located within Pun Hlaing Estate in Hlaing Tharyar Township, Yangon. The estate is approximately 30–55 minutes from downtown Yangon and Yangon International Airport by private car, depending on traffic conditions. It sits adjacent to the Pun Hlaing Golf Club — one of Myanmar’s finest championship golf courses — and within one of Yangon’s most prestigious gated communities.

How many rooms does Awei Metta have?

Awei Metta has 46 rooms across its 2.19-acre estate — a deliberate choice to maintain the intimacy and personalised service standard that larger properties cannot deliver. This means rooms can be limited during peak season (November–February) and advance booking is strongly recommended.

Can non-golfers enjoy Awei Metta?

Absolutely — and many of Awei Metta’s most devoted returning guests have never picked up a golf club. The resort’s restaurant, bar, cigar room, swimming pool, and conference facilities create a complete luxury experience entirely independent of golf. The location within Pun Hlaing Estate also provides easy access to Yangon’s main attractions for cultural day trips. Awei Metta works beautifully as a base for exploring Yangon as much as it does as a golf destination.

Is the Cigar Room open to non-residents?

The Cigar Room is primarily a guest facility, though non-resident visitors may be accommodated subject to availability and room at management’s discretion. Residents of Awei Metta always have priority access. For groups or private cigar events, contact the resort directly or through Exotic Indochina to make specific arrangements.

What is the relationship between Awei Metta and Pun Hlaing Golf Club?

Awei Metta sits within the Pun Hlaing Estate alongside the Pun Hlaing Golf Club — one of Myanmar’s premier 18-hole championship courses. While the two are separate operations, Awei Metta guests enjoy preferential access and rates at Pun Hlaing Golf Club not available to outside visitors. The resort’s golf concierge team handles all tee time bookings, caddie arrangements, and transport coordination between the hotel and the clubhouse.

Is Awei Metta suitable for business travellers and corporate events?

Awei Metta is one of Yangon’s finest corporate hospitality venues precisely because it offers what large business hotels cannot — genuine privacy, excellent food, a memorable environment, and the ability to combine a productive meeting day with a round of golf at Pun Hlaing and an evening in the cigar room. Conference and meeting rooms accommodate 6–40 participants with full AV and catering support. Contact our team for group rates and event coordination.

Yangon’s Finest Urban Retreat Awaits

46 rooms. A golf centre. Yangon’s finest cigar room. A restaurant that earns its reputation every night. And the Pun Hlaing Golf Club just steps away. Awei Metta is the address that changes what you expect from a Yangon stay.
