Phuket is one of the largest islands in the whole of Thailand. It has a total of 576 square meters. So we’re not surprised when it get slightly overwhelming trying to decide where to stay. There are so many options and each place tells you a different thing. So we’re here to help you out and point you in the right direction.

One of the best bits about going on holiday is exploring new places, and what better way to do that than on a boat. Immerse yourself in nature, soak up the ocean water and look at far as the horizon will go. Here are our 3 favourite types of boats in Phuket and the best ways to use them.

For those of you who have never ever stepped foot on a yoga mat before, heading to a yoga retreat may feel a little intimidating! Our sister resort Atmanjai offers a fully inclusive yoga programme, from morning until evening, so you’ll be sure to find something that suits you!

After 4 years of construction and traffic mayhem, the new underpass road at the 5-road Chalong circle intersection has finally opened on 1 June 2019!

This main traffic artery connects the Rawai and Nai Harn area with the rest of Phuket island and is essential for the movement of traffic to and from this part of the island.

The news come as a huge relief for the hotels, businesses and local residents operating and living in our area.

Our part of Phuket Island can now be reached easily once again and without a 20 plus minutes wait in the notorious traffic jam at the circle.

The modern underpass road/tunnel is about 500 meters long and connects Rawai with ChaoFah West Road leading up to Central Department store and Phuket International Airport.

The tunnel is very well lit and looks safe to drive through as you can discover in the video published together with this blog post.

We look forward to welcoming more tourists and local residents in Rawai and Nai Harn to experience this beautiful and authentic part of Phuket Island, where people come to relax and escape from the busy tourist centres located on the West Coast of Phuket Island.

Rawai and Nai Harn offer you some of the best beaches in Phuket and large choice of local Thai and seafood restaurants run by families since generations.

We are also home to some of the finest hotels and dining venues catering for those looking for a more refined environment and taste.

Meet any traveller and they’ll either be a Phuket fan or a Bali fan. These two destinations hold many similarities, so it is only natural for people to put them against each other and draw a comparison. Australians often side with Bali purely because it’s around the corner for them. Whereas Russians and Brits hold a soft spot for phuket. We’re going to put these two head to head and see which one comes out best.
