With 29 global properties and more on the horizon, the Andaz brand has championed the ever-evolving character and individuality of its guests since the brand’s launch in 2007. Be Like No One’s Watching is the Andaz brand’s latest reminder that people move through the world with ever-changing identities that transform and develop over time and throughout environments—especially through travel. No matter what hidden desires guests possess, Andaz hotels promise to create the freedom and space to embrace who they are or discover who they can become.

As Be Like No One’s Watching comes to life at Andaz properties, guests will find experiences across the Andaz portfolio starting this month and extending into 2024. Each experience is designed to capture the imaginations of guests, while reflecting the brand campaign’s key focus areas: ‘Indulge,’ where guests can connect to culinary, mixology, and self-pampering moments; ‘Play,’ which can be expressed through musical connections, gaming, or even digital exploration; and ‘Move,’ where dance, fitness, sports and wellbeing experiences are delivered.

We understand that our guests may have new, unique desires to fulfill when they travel, and we want to be there to help realize those desires. Just as Andaz hotels offer playful sanctuaries that help reveal new horizons for our guests, our newest campaign is an invitation to feel liberated to be the most authentic version of yourself.”

Be Like No One’s Watching also reimagines the visual identity of Andaz hotels through the lens of the brand’s ethos to empower travelers with the freedom to pursue their dynamic nature. With a redesigned website infused with expressive art, vivid colors, and freehand patterns, the new visuals reflect Andaz properties’ ability to create a space for travelers to challenge their boundaries.

This series of creative visuals reflect the campaign’s motif of reinventing oneself through travel was concepted and directed by international branding agency, RO New York. A collection of eye-popping portraits from renowned portrait photographer, Ruven Afanador, captures guests exploring their alter-egos and travel ambitions, highlighting Andaz hotels as bridges to new and enriching possibilities. The campaign also includes video shorts filmed by New York City-based cinematographer, Joshua Steen, and styled by Bernat Buscato, acclaimed fashion stylist, editor and designer. These shorts depict guests' transformation as they discover moments of inspiration from the imaginative local touches at Andaz hotels around the world. The campaign artwork will be featured in international markets throughout North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia across print, online, and paid and brand-owned social channels.

“Geared towards an audience of travelers and lifestyle enthusiasts interested in creative expression, design, art and luxury goods, each element of the Be Like No One’s Watching campaign truly reflects Andaz guests’ desire to explore different parts of themselves,” said Kenneth Villamil, vice president, product and brand development for Hyatt’s lifestyle and luxury brands. “After watching the Andaz brand grow and evolve since its very inception, I am incredibly excited to see the evolution of creative visuals, short films and overall new identity build on the playful luxury the Andaz brand has always been known for, now with a more expressive twist.”
