Review: Phuket’s tropical sanctuary Trisara

Location: After a gruelling 14-hour journey, the private limousine waiting to whisk us to Trisara was a welcome sight. Just a 20-minute drive from Phuket airport, the hotel is nestled on a hillside on the island’s northwest coast, offering stunning views of the shimmering Andaman Sea.

First impressions: As soon as I arrived at Trisara, I was greeted with warm smiles and impeccable service, with a refreshing cool drink and ice-cold towel setting the stage for an unforgettable VIP experience. Walking into the lobby, I was struck by the elegant design and meticulous attention to detail. 

Modern luxury touches, plush sofas, sleek marble floors and panoramic ocean vistas instantly melted away the stress from my long journey – I knew I was in good hands.
