Trisara Beach is a small, private looking beach, that anyone can use, but the Trisara villas cover the property between the beach and the road. If you’re not staying at Trisara, you can come by longtail boat. The beach is beautiful and there are places to put your mat down. The water is not great for swimming or wading – there are many rocks and some coral as the water gets deeper. You can snorkel on the north end. Few people use the beach, because their large villas have everything they need.

Trisara Beach Accommodations

Trisara Phuket – this 5-star property has many large luxury villas on the hills surrounding the beach. Reviews are stellar, with very few mentions of anything at all negative. Spa, restaurants, and large pool in the main building. Swimming pool at each villa. Cooking classes, tennis lessons on private courts, and yoga class are all available. Villa rates start at 23,000 THB per night. The Trisara is probably one of the top 5 properties on Phuket – if you can, you must.

There are some other resorts close by, but nothing on Trisara Beach. On Google Maps, it appears that nobody besides Trisara has their marker over their hotel – so we’ll not cover any other accommodations at Trisara.
