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
