Best Pet-Friendly Hotels in Phuket (2026)

Trisara occupies a secluded bay in Phuket's less-developed northwest, its pool villas terracing down the hillside toward a private beach. Every villa has its own private pool — many positioned so the water appears to merge with the Andaman Sea horizon. The resort's PRU restaurant holds a Michelin star for its farm-to-table Thai cuisine. One of the island's most genuinely intimate properties.

Anantara's Mai Khao property fronts the island's longest and least-developed beach — a 17km stretch of sand in the far north where sea turtles nest and there's no party in sight. The 91 pool villas are generous and immaculately maintained. This is Phuket for those who want serious resort amenities without the island's southern crowds.

The resort that established Phuket's luxury credentials in 1988, Amanpuri remains the benchmark. Forty Thai pavilions and 30 pool villas cascade through a coconut grove to a private beach, all serviced by Aman's famously unobtrusive hospitality. The calm here is architectural — no music by the pool, no organised activities unless you seek them, no crowds. Pansea Beach is Phuket's quietest west-coast cove.

Baan Laimai sits directly on Karon Beach — Phuket's quietest major beach — and offers excellent value in a polished Thai-style resort. The pool and beachside facilities are well-maintained, rooms are spacious, and the three-kilometre stretch of sand outside the door is rarely crowded. A solid mid-range choice for first-time Phuket visitors who want beach access without resort prices.

Sri Panwa crowns the southern tip of Cape Panwa with 51 pool villas spread across a private peninsula, offering 360-degree views of the Andaman Sea. The rooftop Baba Nest bar is one of Phuket's most Instagrammable spots and one of its most genuinely beautiful sunset-watching perches. A 30-minute drive from Patong keeps the atmosphere civilised.

Rosewood Phuket descends a steep hillside to a private beach at Emerald Bay, its 71 Seastone Villas built from local granite and dark wood with uninterrupted Andaman views. The property's Asaya spa and KraInklein beach club deliver resort experiences that feel genuinely earned rather than manufactured. One of Phuket's best-designed luxury properties of the last decade.
