Concierge "The Marina is one of the smaller and simpler resorts on the island, and it's the kind of place where Thai hospitality is keenly felt."
Rough Guide "Enjoying both a very central location, backing on to the beach and just steps from restaurants and shops, and a luxuriously spacious and secluded tropical garden in a former coconut plantation."
Fodor's "This surprisingly quiet option has its cottages sprawling over a lush hillside that separates Karon from Kata Beach." Full review

"Andara Resort and Villas is one of the most expensive five-pearl options in Phuket, but with the high price tag comes over-the-top extras like private chefs and access to a customized yacht." Full review

Well-heeled guests choose from luxury villas or suites; most of them have gorgeous private pools and sweeping views of the Andaman Sea. It would be easy to spend an entire vacation holed up in the villas, which get stocked with guests' favorite foods, and a private chef comes to prepare customized meals.
Condé Nast Traveler "The 26 luxury villas and 37 antique-filled suites are bedecked in warm, polished wood, plenty of cushions, and beds that are arguably Phuket’s plushest." Full review
Michelin Guide "A collection of stylish modern-Thai villas and lodges, spread across a lush estate with seemingly unlimited views over the bay below...there’s a well-equipped gym, a full-service spa" Full review
