"Keemala is pure fantasy." Full review
Jetsetter "Whimsical, eco-friendly rainforest retreat dotted with waterfalls, within safe distance from Patong’s partiers." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "Birds’ nests, seedpods, thatched hobbit holes: Phuket resort Keemala’s pool villas are incredible architectural anomalies, and an intriguing mix of history and myth, loosely based on ancient tribe dwellings" Full review

I got the feeling that no request was too much trouble for the him and his team – something which is quite rare (I know how much work goes into the F&B side of hotels).
Independent "Interiors are glam and grown up – oversized four-poster beds, enormous bathtubs and private pools. And the spa, with its indoor/outdoor treatment rooms and lavish treatments, is a dream."
Frommer's "This design-centric hotel is built into the lush, forested hills just up from Kamala Beach, and it is one of the most magical hotels in Thailand" Full review

"Soothing, ecoconscious, fantasy-inspired beauty is one of Phuket's most original, sought-after and Instagram-loved resorts...stay in cocoon-like, clay-cottage private-pool villas; glammed-up tents." Full review
Independent "Keemala Resort is made up of fantasy bird’s nest villas, clay pool cottages and tree houses. The lavish tree-top rooms have a wooden structure and décor, four-poster beds and private pools."
Michelin Guide "All of Keemala’s villas and cottages come loaded with the necessities: Egyptian sheets, bathtubs, free wi-fi, minibars stocked with complimentary drinks and snacks, and private terraces " Full review
