Serenity secluded perfectly captures what awaits guests at this beautifully landscaped resort set above the white sands of stunning Friendship Beach in Phuket's southern, laid back and unspoiled Rawai district. Retaining the Thai owners' commitment to that unique "Thai" feel, the resort's magnificent gardens testify to its eco-friendliness. It is also exceptionally quiet, peaceful and friendly, with a wonderful local history and an essentially Thai atmosphere. The 92 luxurious, stand-alone villas sit amid lush tropical trees and fauna overlooking the azure blue waters of Chalong Bay. Staff is renowned for their efficient, attentive, gentle and, of course in Thailand smiling service. Mouth watering Thai cuisine draws inspiration from southern Thailand.
