On an island off Phuket, The Village at Coconut Island enjoys undisturbed privacy and absolutely spectacular views of Phang-Nga Bay. The island has largely escaped the overdevelopment of the surrounding area, but remains a short trip from the city and the airport. The surrounding Ao Phang-Nga park is a breathtaking maritime gem, with sunken caverns, dramatic rock islets that rise from emerald waters.

The facilities

The hotel boasts an exceptional array of watercraft and a variety of exciting and relaxing activities. Learn to sail small catamarans, windsurf or kayak with personal lessons. Two floodlit tennis courts are ideal for play, as is the state-of-the-art fitness centre, offering training and yoga classes. Explore the island’s interior jungle by foot or mountain bike, or just plant yourself at the private beach or treat yourself to a soothing massages or body treatments at the Village Spa. Try Tamarind Restaurant for traditional Thai cuisine and Western dishes, as well as the fully stocked bar.

The Rooms

Beautiful villas with private pools are available with two to five bedrooms. Inspired by the simple charm of the Thai longtail boat, most of the villas have direct beach frontage and panoramic sea views. All villas have a large private swimming pool, a kitchen and spacious interiors with luxury furnishings.
