Featured Properties
The Vijitt
Phuket
A reminder of this great-value beachfront option in a quiet corner of Phuket.
Peaceful Beachfront Location
Nestled on the tranquil shores of Friendship Beach, The Vijitt Resort Phuket offers a secluded retreat just 30 minutes from Phuket’s busy tourist areas. Guests enjoy panoramic views across Chalong Bay, Coral Island, and Lon Island while experiencing the serenity of southern Phuket.
Authentic Natural Environment
Originally established on a former fruit orchard, the resort has preserved much of its native landscape. Mature trees, coconut palms, and lush tropical gardens create a unique setting where nature remains at the heart of the guest experience.
Spacious Private Villas
Set across 18 acres of tropical grounds, the resort features only 92 stand-alone villas, ranging from spacious 70 sqm one-bedroom villas to expansive 182 sqm two-bedroom pool villas. This low-density design ensures exceptional privacy, comfort, and open space for every guest.
137 Pillar House
Chiang Mai
The property just launched a new package, “The Teak Wallah Collection.”
Discover Chiang Mai through a thoughtfully curated journey inspired by the historic teak wallahs who once passed through this storied residence.
The package includes a two-night stay in a suite category, daily breakfast and an exclusive one-time Thai set dinner, “Recipes of Old Siam,” for two persons.
As a highlight of the experience, each day, guests will enjoy a bespoke selection of one experience, inviting you to explore the many layers of the city; from drifting through its storied streets in a restored Royal Enfield sidecar or a traditional samlor, to uncovering quieter paths and hidden temples beyond the old walls.
Embrace the lush, tranquil side of Chiang Mai with The Monk’s Trail to Doi Suthep or a meaningful visit to a renowned ethical elephant sanctuary. For a more immersive touch, discover the flavours of the region through From Market to Table alongside our local chef.
Moments of calm complete the journey, whether through Morning Yoga in the Gardens or a restorative escape at Nitra Spa.
