FACTS AND INFORMATION Trisara has become a landmark since it opened in November 2004. Phuket Island’s most exclusive, intimate resort is located over a private bay just 15 minutes from Phuket International Airport on the quiet, relatively undeveloped northwestern coastline. The short drive from Phuket Airport is a beautiful introduction to the “real” Phuket, winding through small villages, jungle and beaches before arriving at the resorts discreet entrance, which is hidden by towering ancient hardwoods. Trisara’s owners are also the manager’s and we were the driving force behind all design decisions. We are passionate about service, food and attention to detail, something too often overlooked lost in today’s world. The gently sloping contours of the site have been developed to allow all villas to embrace wide ocean views, sunsets and the cooling sea breezes that flow throughout the property. The resort’s 48 pool suites and villas, guest facilities and two to six bedroom residential villas sit within 40 acres of gardens that rise gently from the 2,000 meters of absolute ocean frontage, with all accommodation offering a sense of total privacy from lush tropical gardens. The property is well secured as there is only one protected and guarded road entrance. ACCOMMODATION Overlooking Trisara’s bay and beach are 48 (one and two bedroom) hotel pool rooms, pool suites and pool villas, plus 20 magnificent privately owned 2 – 6 bedroom Residences, which are available for rental with private staff and kitchens.

The pool villas are categorized as either oceanfront (lower level) or ocean view pool villas (one level higher), although all are the same size / design with beautiful views with great privacy. 12 Ocean View Pool Rooms are set higher above the ocean view pool villas, all enjoying expansive sea views. The pool rooms consist of a total area of 117 square meters, including the 50 square meter air- conditioned bedroom, outdoor deck and the 4 meter infinity plunge pool.
