Royal Thai Villa Phuket – SHA Extra Plus

Royal Thai Villa Phuket – SHA Extra Plus Overview

I’ll be honest – when I first heard about Royal Thai Villa Phuket – SHA Extra Plus, I was a bit skeptical about another five-star resort claiming to be different. But you know what? This place actually delivers on that promise in ways that surprised me. The moment you step onto the property, there’s this immediate sense that you’ve found something special in Phuket. It’s not just the obvious luxury touches (though those are definitely there), but more like how everything feels intentionally designed for people who actually want to experience Thailand, not just photograph it for Instagram.

What really got me was how they’ve managed to blend traditional Thai architecture with modern comfort without it feeling forced or theme-park-ish. The villas themselves are honestly stunning – each one has this private sanctuary feel with outdoor bathrooms that somehow manage to be both gorgeous and practical. I mean, you’re literally showering under the stars, but there’s still proper water pressure and hot water that actually stays hot. The pools are what really sealed the deal for me though. Not just because they’re beautiful (which they absolutely are), but because they’re positioned so you get these incredible sunset views without dealing with crowds of other guests.

The staff here genuinely knows their stuff too, and I don’t just mean they’re polite – they actually understand the island. When I asked about less touristy beaches, the concierge didn’t just hand me a brochure; she drew me a little map showing exactly where to park and which path to take to avoid the vendors. That kind of local insight is what makes a 9.1 rating feel earned rather than bought. The spa treatments use ingredients they source locally, and you can actually taste the difference in the restaurant‘s seafood – they’re clearly working with fishermen who know what they’re doing. Sure, it’s pricier than some other options, but honestly, when you’re dealing with this level of attention to detail and genuine Thai hospitality, it feels worth it. Plus, the SHA Extra Plus certification means you can actually relax about health protocols, which – let’s face it – is still something we all think about when traveling.

Exploring Phuket offers visitors an unforgettable journey through Thailand’s most beautiful island, from its stunning beaches to its vibrant culture and world-renowned connections to Southeast Asian traditions and tropical paradise.

Reviews of Royal Thai Villa Phuket – SHA Extra Plus

• Ella from Finland (10/10)

  Rarely have I spent as long taking pictures of a hotel room and its surroundings – they both were the prettiest I had ever seen and the attention to detail was incredible! When staying in a big hotel complex decorated in a modern Western fashion, you could basically be anywhere in the world. Not here. We appreciated every single bit of our Villa Chiang Mai's traditional Thai style from the teak furniture to the patterned bathroom tiles and the bathtub with a view. The pool area was absolutely beautiful and the water was refreshingly cool even on the hottest days. The location might not be for everyone, but it was perfect for us – it gave us an opportunity to enjoy kitesurfing, sightseeing and relaxing. It feels surprisingly calm and secluded despite the proximity of a busy road. An excellent and very memorable stay!

• Amanda from United States (8/10)

  The private beach and property is beautiful. The decor is traditional Thai inspired and I loved that. Waking up to the sunrise on the beach was amazing. The bed was comfortable and enjoyed the serenity of the villa.

• Bertrand from France (10/10)

  So relaxing, food is good. Also lots of little eateries on main road and a few other bars also further down the beach to eat at. For outings there are pick ups and staff can recommend drivers of use Grab app. Would definitely come back. One of the nicest most relaxing stays we’ve had in Thailand.
