Trisara
"This 40-acre hillside hideaway—set within a rain forest of bamboo and banana trees on Phuket—has 39 waterfront villas and rooms, all with commanding Andaman Sea views from the bed, the sunken bath, and each villa’s infinity pool. Among the spacious spa, water sports, tennis, and nearby golf courses, there’s plenty to do, but villa dwellers will find their desires met within their nearly 2,600-square-foot personal oasis, thanks to wireless Internet access, spectacular scenery, and a generously stocked minibar—critical, since room service operates on Thai time. Call at least three days in advance for sweet yellow-bean dumplings with sesame seeds, and don’t pass on the delicately spiced banana-blossom salad. Daybeds are scattered like seashells along the beach and in the shade near the 150-foot-long main pool. Editor's Pick: Gold List 2018"
