Twinpalms Phuket THAILAND
Twinpalms, on the vibrant Thai island of Phuket, is located near Surin Beach and offers guests a serene and stylish retreat. The hotel’s penthouses and suites are perfect for couples and friends travelling together as well as those searching for some relaxing ‘me time’
A peaceful and secluded tropical oasis, Twinpalms Phuket is set in a magical, water garden landscape. Modern and elegant, this privately-owned resort has great restaurants and bars, fabulous beach clubs, all delivered with thoughtful and attentive service and all offering an enclave to catch some rays, recline on a sun lounger and take in the wonderful sea views and fresh air. Blissfully sleek and minimalist rooms and suites
at Twinpalms Phuket feature a private terrace with a view of the expansive lagoon pool, a refreshing pool designed for relaxation and large enough for swimming laps. Spacious and sophisticated penthouses are complete with private pools and offer a touch of exclusivity. This destination has an unhurried and chilled-out ambience where the only energ you need to expend is lying by the pool or sitting on a stretch of golden sand on nearby Surin Beach, the slick service at the hotel is discrete as much as it’s friendly. Wellbeing is a priority at Twinpalms. Palm Spa focuses on treatments using French high-tech
cosmetic brand, Institut Esthederm Paris, offering products and techniques adapted to the needs of skin that’s been exposed to tropical weather conditions. The massage sessions available range from
traditional Thai to rebalancing using techniques from Swedish, sports and Thai massages, allowing for a deep tissue untangling. The spa takes a modern approach to wellness
and ensures that the combination of beauty treatments, skin pampering and deep muscle relaxation is offered in a luxuriant way. The spa also extends to the beach at Catch Beach Club, where breezy cabanas are fashioned into small spa rooms and a simple, yet delightful array of massages are offered against the beautiful backdrop of the Andaman Sea. The Twinpalms ethos is all about balance and
enjoying natural surroundings, fantastic spa experiences and taking some time to breathe in a decadent space. Cuisine is at the heart of the brand, and Oriental Spoon is a Thai restaurant fused with Western influences, offering an airy venue
for dining. Open to in-house guests and visitors alike, the restaurant serves delectable local and international cuisine complemented by a fabulous wine list and cocktails served from the open-plan Martini bar in a friendly atmosphere. Sundays are brunch days, and Oriental Spoon becomes the place to be to enjoy great food and company for residents and hotel guests. Of course, no stay is complete without a few days
chilling out at Catch Beach Club, which is located on Bang Tao Beach. Cuisine served by the beach is vibrant, fresh and tasty and sun-drenched days are followed by cooler nights with enthralling entertainment and international DJs. Past acts include music legends such as Erick Morillo, Bob Sinclar and Roger Sanchez. Phuket has so much to offer — on land there are
stunning beaches, vibrant nightlife and colourful cultural attractions to enjoy. At sea, exploring the isle and its surrounding islands promises to make any visit here complete and a total break from the routine of home life.
Take the time to cruise the emerald waters in
Phang Nga Bay and marvel at the sights of the natural topography of the majestic limestone-clad vistas and hidden mangrove caves. For lovers of marine life, a trip to the clear waters near Koh Racha or Koh Phi Phi offers the chance to snorkel, scuba dive or kayak with a spectacular array of colourful reef fish. Andaman Cruises, part of the Twinpalms
brand, has a fleet of eight yachts and powerboats, all designed with comfort, luxury and exclusivity in mind. Intimate voyages for just a couple of people to social gatherings of up to 50 guests can be enjoyed. The extraordinary 135ft Ocean Emerald is a perfect tri-deck superyacht that accommodates large groups for a daytime voyage or party and can sleep 12 people. Guests can enjoy a dip in the upper deck whirlpool bath or unwind with a refreshing cocktail on one of the sun loungers. A trove of water toys, tenders, jet skis, kayaks and sports equipment complete the guest facilities. The stylish MY Olympia, a 76ft fly-bridge motor yacht, features four cabins and accommodates a total
of eight guests for overnight cruises and 20 guests for a day charter. Guests can enjoy access to remote private coves, as well as exhilarating afternoons of water-skiing and wakeboarding. Moving away from the west coast beaches,
there are plenty of things to do and see on land. A night out in Phuket Old Town is thoroughly recommended with its Chinese temples, Sino- Portuguese architecture, ice cream shops, gin and cocktail bars, quintessential Thai restaurants from traditional coffee and roti houses to elaborate, Michelin-mentioned royal Thai cuisine offered at Blue Elephant, the Old Town is an experience all travellers should make an effort to see. No trip to Thailand would be the same without
an encounter with elephants, Phuket now has a number of ‘ethical’ sanctuaries, but the pioneering Phuket Elephant Sanctuary, is completely ‘saddle off’. It’s a place where you can observe and walk with (at a respectful distance) retired elephants in a jungle environment. A stay at Twinpalms ensures a memorable and sophisticated stay in Phuket.
