Trisara has become a landmark since it opened in November 2004. 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 39 pool suites and villas, guest facilities and 20 residential villas sit within 40 acres of gardens that rise gently from the 1,400 meters of absolute ocean frontage, ensuring total privacy in each villa or suite. The property is well secured as there is only one protected and guarded road entrance.
Trisara Resort is located over a private bay just 15 minutes from Phuket International Airport on the Island’s quiet, 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.
We have many dining options at Trisara and our talented kitchen team, headed by our Thai Executive Chef Khun Kla has become legendary on Phuket as offering the best food on the Island. Our Food and Beverage Manager is Khun Boyd and our Resort Manager, Marie Fluery oversees the operation.

Beach and Pool
Trisara’s beach is protected from the swell and currents by a fringing reef, which thankfully keeps the noisy jet-skis and beach sales-people away from our guests. Swimming is safe at the high tides yet at the low tides the reef is exposed. Our 110 meter floating jetty and swimming pontoon (December - April) extends beyond this reef enabling guests to access the sea for swimming or water-sports at any time. The floating teak pontoon is a great place to swim out to, snorkel from or just sit and enjoy the Trisara views.
