Sri Panwa Phuket Luxury Pool Villa Hotel

Rooms at Sri Panwa Phuket Luxury Pool Villa Hotel include one-bedroom pool villas, suites and a residence, with ocean views in most of them and a garden view in one of the villas. Several rooms have a bathtub, a shower, bathrobes and a hair dryer, and many have an electric kettle.

Some villas and suites have an ocean view, with king beds in several rooms and sofa beds in others, and the residence sleeps up to nine guests. Room sizes and layouts vary across the collection, so guests can choose between a suite for two and a larger pool villa set within the resort's grounds.

The resort has an outdoor swimming pool, a spa with a sauna, a steam room and a hot tub, and a fitness centre, along with a yoga room and a tennis court. The private beach is on the property, and an airport transfer is offered.

Dining includes restaurants with à la carte, Asian, Western, Chinese and international dishes, plus a coffee shop, a poolside bar and a snack bar, and room service is available. Breakfast is served à la carte, Asian or continental.

For guests who want to keep busy, there is a game room with billiards, snorkelling and canoeing are offered, and tours can be arranged. Free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms, with internet services and Wi-Fi in the public areas.

Panwa Cape is a headland in the south of Phuket island, a quieter corner of the island than the busy beach towns on the west coast. Sri Panwa sits on the cape itself, with its own beach and sea views from many of its villas. The cape is also home to a marine research centre and an aquarium, and Panwa Beach lies close by. The quiet setting suits a stay built around the resort's own grounds, with the rest of the island reachable by road.

Phuket International Airport is 36.3 km away by road. Chaithararam Temple, known as Wat Chalong, is 9.7 km away and is one of the most important temples on the island. The Big Buddha on Nakkerd Hills is 11.2 km away, and Nai Harn Beach, a sandy beach on the south coast, is 11.9 km away. Going further afield means using a car or taxi.

A good day here starts with the marine research centre and the aquarium on the cape, then the viewpoint on Laem Panwa, with its views over the water. In the afternoon, a drive to Wat Chalong and the Big Buddha fits a day of temples and hills, and a stop at Nai Harn Beach makes a good end to the day before heading back to the cape.
