The takeaway

Choose it for a private-pool, beachfront stay on Emerald Bay, with a village-like layout and four distinct places to eat without leaving the resort.

About the hotel

On Emerald Bay in Patong, Rosewood Phuket pairs a beachfront setting with a hillside landscape of tropical greenery. Its 71 pavilions and villas are arranged like a small resort village, with private pools and spaces designed to open toward gardens or the sea. Four dining venues range from Southern Thai seafood at Ta Khai to Italian cooking at Red Sauce. The defining experience is a self-contained beach stay shaped by the bay, landscape and residential-style accommodation.

Choose it if

Skip it if

You want to be close to the airport: the resort estimates a 60–90-minute drive from Phuket International Airport, depending on traffic.
