One could say Phuket is already saturated with hospitality brands and luxury properties and the isle has lost some of its tranquil touch and the natural alluring charm vacationers seek. A wholesome getaway is still possible on the island, however, at Emerald Bay in southwestern Phuket, at the luxurious Rosewood Phuket.

Inspired by the serenity and sophistication of luxurious beachside estates, the resort features 71 pool pavilions and villas immersed in a verdant 17.4-hectare landscape, creating a tropical beach hideaway perfectly placed for guests to explore the hidden charms of Thailand's most famous island destination.
Each sea-facing, residential-style room features interiors that blend east and west, contemporary and traditional. Their expansive garden terraces are private sanctuaries of relaxed outdoor seating, daybed, infinity pool and Andaman Sea views. The 130-square-metre Ocean View Pool Pavilions feature spacious bedroom and living room areas and an exterior courtyard with deep soaking bathtub and rain shower. The 796-square-metre Ocean House comprises a master bedroom, twin bedroom, separate living and dining rooms and a lush oasis of garden courtyards and shady terraces, and guests can choose to plunge in their private infinity pool or take a few short steps to the warm, crystal-clear waters of Emerald Bay.
