I am Chorten Wangyel, founder of Bhutan Lux. Bhutan is home; hospitality has taken me across Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and the Caribbean. I was part of the pre-opening team at COMO Uma Paro, contributing to the early development of luxury hospitality in Bhutan. That experience continues to shape how I think about welcoming guests to my home country. Bhutan Lux brings those experiences together to create thoughtful, personal journeys for guests from around the world.
Before the pandemic, guests discovered us through word of mouth. Today, the invitation is open to you, wherever your journey begins.
Read my story · From Bhutan to the world
I grew up in eastern Bhutan, raised by my grandmother, with a world to discover beyond the mountains. Life eventually took me from the Himalayas into hospitality across Asia, the Middle East—including the UAE—Africa, and the Caribbean. Quite a change of scenery. Yet wherever I went, Bhutan came with me.
My memoir in development, Roots of Ambition: From the Himalayas to the World, follows that journey: family, resilience, unexpected turns, and the people who make a life possible. Through CW Luxury, I am exploring how those lessons can shape thoughtful hospitality. Bhutan Lux is the invitation to experience the place where it all began.
Before the pandemic, guests from the USA and The Bahamas found Bhutan Lux through people who knew me. I planned their journeys personally and worked with my staff in Bhutan to bring the details together. That is the spirit I want to carry forward: a real conversation, thoughtful arrangements, and room for the moments you could never put on an itinerary.
Today, The Bahamas is another important part of my story. I serve as Managing Director of Coral Sands Inn & Cottages on Harbour Island, and as Director for Family Islands with the Bahamas Hotel & Tourism Association (BHTA), a volunteer board role. From Himalayan valleys to pink-sand beaches, the scenery has changed—but my belief in thoughtful hospitality has stayed with me.
Bhutan Lux brings that personal perspective home: understanding what matters to each guest and making the details feel effortless. It is my independent venture through CW Luxury.
Perhaps you are drawn by the mountains. Perhaps it is a honeymoon, a family adventure, or simply the feeling that it is time to go somewhere different. Tell us what brings you here. Let’s start your Bhutan story.

The CW Luxury Standard · Our approach to your journey
Luxury begins with understanding you.
People. Product. Performance. Our own hospitality philosophy guides how we listen, shape your itinerary, and follow through. Your preferences give every proposal its starting point.
Our professional and personal relationships connect us with exceptional hosts across Bhutan. Every partner we use—from luxury lodges and family-owned homestays to guides, drivers and experience hosts—must be vetted against our own CW Luxury Standard. We select each for the experience they offer, the reliability of their service and the care they show our guests.
01 / People
Know the person.
Tell us who is travelling, what you love, your preferred pace, and the occasion. We begin with a conversation and agree what matters most.
02 / Product
Shape the experience.
We use your preferences to propose a route, stays, guiding, dining, and time to yourself. Review and refine the details with us before confirming.
03 / Performance
Care in the details.
Before booking, we confirm availability, inclusions, costs, and the local delivery arrangements in writing. Your feedback helps us refine the plan and improve future journeys.
The CW Luxury Standard describes our own approach to hospitality; it is not an external certification or hotel rating.
The questions worth asking before you travel. Our team will work through the details with you before you commit.
Understanding your investment
One clear proposal. Every inclusion explained.
Your total depends on your dates, number of guests, room arrangements, hotel choices, route, and experiences. Tell us whether your budget includes international flights so we plan on the same basis.
Your Bhutan arrangements
Accommodation, meals, guide, vehicle and driver, and agreed experiences—each identified in your proposal.
Government fees & travel
Applicable SDF and visa fees, flights, and gateway stays shown separately or clearly marked as included.
Personal extras

We welcome guests worldwide. Tell us your departure city and country of residence so we can discuss routes and requirements for your journey.
