Soul Villas by The Beach Phuket, A Nature Retreat

Soul Villas by The Beach Phuket, A Nature Retreat Overview

You know what struck me first about Soul Villas by The Beach Phuket, A Nature Retreat? It’s actually how quiet everything gets once you step onto the property. I mean, Phuket can be absolutely chaotic – especially around Patong and those touristy areas – but this place feels like someone hit the mute button on all that madness. The villas are scattered through what’s basically a tropical garden that seems to have grown up around the buildings rather than the other way around, if that makes sense.

Honestly, calling it a four-star property almost undersells what they’re doing here. The villas themselves are these gorgeous standalone units with private pools that are way bigger than you’d expect – I’m talking actual swimming, not just Instagram posing (though, let’s be real, you’ll do plenty of that too). What really got me was the attention to detail in the design. Everything’s done in this contemporary Thai style that doesn’t feel forced or touristy, and the bathrooms… well, let’s just say the outdoor shower situation is pretty spectacular. There’s something about washing off the day while listening to the waves and whatever birds live in those massive trees overhead.

The beach access is probably the biggest selling point, and it’s not one of those situations where you have to walk through a resort lobby and past three pools to get to sand that’s packed with chairs. This is more like having your own slice of coastline – well, shared with the other guests, but the whole property only has a handful of villas, so it never feels crowded. The staff seems to appear exactly when you need them and vanish when you don’t, which is honestly an art form. I watched them setting up a private dinner on the beach for some guests one evening, complete with those flickering torches and everything, and it looked like something out of a movie. The food, by the way, is way better than it needs to be – they’ve got this chef who clearly knows what they’re doing, and the seafood is obviously caught locally because you can actually taste the difference.

What I really appreciated was how they’ve managed to create this luxury experience without making it feel pretentious or overly formal. You can wander around in your swimwear and flip-flops, but if you want to dress up for dinner, that works too. The whole vibe is more “sophisticated beach house” than “fancy hotel,” if you know what I mean. Just be prepared to not want to leave – I ended up extending my stay by two days because the thought of going back to regular hotel rooms felt depressing after this.

  It is a beautiful property on a small beach. The area is quiet and has a certain charm. The villas on the property are well maintained and cosy. The private pool was a joy and the vegan food was delicious.

  A fabulous view and location . If you are particularly into yoga and zen and chilling this is ideal .

  A magical place .

• Peggy from Hong Kong (10/10)

  The location is great, the staff are so friendly. Not far away from 7-11, and a local Thai restaurant on the beach.

• Jörg from Germany (10/10)

  Absolut traumhaft…. Ein wunderschönes Eigentümer geführtes kleines Paradies.
  A private owened dream place in a superb location.
  Unique Villas made with soul, love and ellegance.
  Extremly friendly and helpful staff and owners.
  Perfect tips, very tasty and perfectly served vegeterian and vegan food. They own another top restaurant in the more crowded Karon beach area… as well an absolute recommendation 👌.
  Top recommendation for Paragliders, Kiters and Yogis as the owners doing everything on their own.

• Basem from United Arab Emirates (10/10)

  Everything! Really wonderful place
  Beautiful surrounding
  Quiet

• Eszter from Austria (10/10)

  We really liked every single thing about this hotel.
  The villa itself was obviously one of the highlights but every single small detail around it was just perfect.
  The whole crew working at the resort was the friendliest ever and they helped us with all of our requests/wishes within the sortest period of time.
  We also tried through nearly the whole menu at the restaurant and even the non-vegetarian ones loved all of the dishes
