ROSEWOOD PHUKET

Emerald Bay's dazzling beach leads into turquoise shallow waters that are great for paddle-boarding and kayaking. With some of the world’s most beautiful dive sites nearby, snorkelling and diving trips can also be arranged to explore the colourful underwater world. Meanwhile, the resort’s magnificent, free form, infinity pool is close to the beach and surrounded by tropical gardens. In the Asaya Spa, discover endless opportunities to achieve your personal wellness goals, where treatments include hand-selected ingredients, crushed, blended and created just for you. Guided yoga and meditation classes offer further relaxation, though for those who seek it, a Muay Thai boxing session is certain to get the adrenaline racing.

Red Sauce is the all-day dining venue, opening for a delicious buffet before moving onto Italian dishes later in the day from its location overlooking the bay. For a more homely experience, Uncle Nun and Aunt Yai are the married chef couple presiding over the Thai restaurant, Ta Khai, where you can sample one of their favourite dishes, Gaeng Poo (crab yellow curry). Radiating a laidback vibe, The Shack serves simple seafood and meats cooked in a hot stone oven or charcoal grill for lunch and dinner while Lounge offers a selection of light bites and is a perfect spot for a sundowner cocktail.
