Sala Phuket Resort & Spa




Sala Phuket is a stunning new pool villa resort, featuring private swimming pools in its 63 villas and suites. This sino-portugese architecture design resort has won numerous awards since its opening not too long ago. Located on Mai Khao beach, a national reserved, which mean no commercial activities on the beach. Sala Phuket is just 10 minutes from Phuket International Airport.

We love our Sala Pool Villa No 48. It is located at the secluded end of a long pathway. The pool and outdoor bath area is stunning especially with lighting at night. We spent the whole day in the villa as it is so comfortable and relaxing. Good place to read a good book, have a cocktail, and have a no-bikini line sun tanning.

This resort is so exclusive that we hardly see or hear anyone accept going to the restaurant for our meal. The restaurant is located next to the swimming pool and facing the Andaman sea. The food here is fantastic. We tried the Sundays Fisherman's Catch... A whole mud crab is steamed in saffron broth with wine, garlic, sweet peppers, and potatoes. Rock lobsters and tiger prawns seasoned with cajun spice & herb oil and char grilled over coconet wood...yummy!

The spa is good with attentive staffs. I especially enjoyed the snacks and ginger tea after the spa treatment. I like the design of the whole spa area from the feature wall, wood carving wall and table, furnitures, and floor tiles... all well put together. Walking thru the misty path to the massage treatment room was an experience.
Sala Phuket is very suitable for couples retreat as it's very excludie and there are not many families and kids around. If you want a lot of privacy and exclusivity, this is the resort to stay in. I must say that it's one of the best designed hotel in Phuket.
