We have been visiting Thailand for many years, and have come to learn 5 star is not always 5 star. This is however not the case with the Sri Panwa resort and this outstanding Villa. The experience begins with prompt professional communication with Marc the owner. Marc and his property manager Khun Noi arranged an airport transfer which was there to pick us up when we arrived at Phuket international airport. Once arriving at the villa, you are greeted by Khun Noi and all the lovely staff that work on site at the Villa. The fridge is full stocked with drinks and food, and the place is immaculate. Khun Noi ensures everything is as you require before leaving you to enjoy your holiday. Every day, the head house keeper cooked some of the most delicious Thai food we have ever and was always around making sure our stay was comfortable as well as always being on top of cleaning and general maintenance around the Villa. The resort also has its own private beach, swimming pool (in addition to your private one), games room, and baba bar and restaurant which I highly recommend for sunset cocktails. The pictures really don't do this place justice, its a secluded peace of luxury that needs to be experienced, especially if its a relaxing break you need. With every review I write, I like to give a negative, but on this occasion the only one I can think of, is the fact we had to leave! A big thankyou to Marc, Khun Noi and all the staff for making this a fantastic 7 nights for all of my family. This was truly a 5 star experience.

I booked this villa with a couple of friends and their families. It was a special occasion so we wanted something memorable and we were not disappointed! From beginning to end this holiday was perfect. The owner was very helpful and always very prompt with any correspondence. The villa is set into the hillside and overlooks the beach and sea.It has 4 large, luxurious bedrooms that easily accommodated our party of 5 adults, 3 children and 1 baby. These are set around an infinity pool which, along with the pool table beside it, kept the children (and adults!) entertained for hours. We were extremely well looked after by the lovely staff which included a gardener and a cook. The food the cook prepared was absolutely gorgeous. It was always fresh and ready for when we had requested to eat. It is quite simply the best Thai food we have ever eaten! It was so easy to arrange as there was a booklet with a wide range of Thai dishes we could choose from. We simply ordered and the cook got the ingredients which we paid for towards the end of the holiday. She even cooked any western dishes we requested for the children - although they all enjoyed the Thai food too! There really is no need to leave the Villa apart from the fact that there is much more to see and do on the Sri Panwa estate. There are more swimming pools to explore, the private beach to visit, a games room that the children loved and sipping a cocktail in Baba's nest whilst the sun sets is an absolute must do! We think we even spotted a celebrity there!! Although the estate is set into a hillside, so therefore the roads are quite steep, it is very easy to get around via complimentary tuc-tucs. There is also a nice collection of restaurants/shops and bars down by the sea front that are worth a visit. It was an amazing holiday and would have no hesitations about recommending it to friends and family,the only problem is that the holiday was just too short!

I'll try to make this review full of rich detail while keeping it brief. I was traveling with my girlfriend, family and family friends, a party of 10 people from Kiev to Phuket. The trip began with a 9 hour delay to the direct flight from Kiev to Bangkok, after finally arriving to Bangkok those 2 days we had there were nice but exhausting. The second we landed in Phuket, we had 2 minivan transfers arranged by the amazing Noi who is the villa director taking us to the Villa. From that point on it was nothing but excellent service, pure relaxation, and everything anyone could ever want from a vacation. Nestled on a mountain side with just a few minutes walk to a private beach and access to all of the amazing resort facilities that Sri Panwa has to offer. If you don't mind spending a few extra dollars on your vacation then this is definitely the place to be.

We booked this gorgeous villa at Sri Panwa Resort for 9 glorious days, after reading all the glowing reviews. They are all 100% correct. There is nothing to fault here, except having to leave. The tone of things to come was set from out initial contact with the owner, Marc. He was a delight to deal with. With 4 adults and kids ranging from 10-16 everyone had a marvelous time. The setting, the staff, the accommodation, the food, the facilities the list goes on….. there is not enough adjectives to describe the experience we had as it ticked all the boxes and then some. It was pure unadulterated luxury. Do yourself a favour and book it, as everyone deserves the memory and experience we had. Looking forward to our return.

We have not long returned from spending eight nights at this wonderful villa. It looks good on the web site but frankly pictures alone can't begin to describe how great a place it is. The accommodation and setting are both first class set on the southern tip of Phuket on the Sri Panwa Resort, where we were able to use all the facilities of the resort in addition to the villa itself. At the villa the pool, dining area and bedrooms are wonderful and the villa itself has total privicy being surrounded on three sides by lush vegetation. The great thing about the villa however is probably not the villa itself but the staff who looked after our every need, cooking fantastic meals, either Thai or western and organising trips for us if we wanted to explore the island - quite an indulgent luxury which made the holiday something to remember. If you decide to book you won't be disappoined, and do take on some of the owners suggestions on places to eat and visit which were always spot on.

We stayed in this beautiful property from 13.2.2010 to 24.2.2010 with my wife and our 11, 6 and 5 year old children. We can certainly highly recommend this great villa to anybody who wants to have a perfect luxorious and relaxing vacation in Phuket. Sea view from the balcony, cup of coffee and morning sun was something so beautiful that it really took your breath away. In Phuket everything is within a short distance. If beach life is your thing just take a taxi from the villa and in 20 minutes you're at Phukets most famous beaches like kata, karon or patong. Boat trips to close by islands were also very easy to organize. Perfectly air-conditioned bedrooms quaranteed a good night sleep even that it was well over 30 degrees celsius outside. Staff looked after us really perfectly during our whole stay. They prepared us delicious meals several times during our stay. Thai food for us adults and also any kind of western food for kids. Coming back to Cape Panwa is definately our target in the near future. Thank you very much our hosts!! Jussi, Anna, Ellen, Elias and Tuomas from Helsinki, Finland

Wir haben mit 4 Erwachsenen Ende November bis Anfang Dezember 2009 unseren Urlaub in der Villa verbracht. Angefangen vom Abholen am Flugplatz, die Begrüssung durch das Personal der Villa ( 3 Köche, 1 Gärtner / Poolboy ) und die Vorstellung der Räumlichkeiten bis zum sofort servierten Essen war alles perfekt. Die Villa ist in einem guten Zustand, sehr sauber und gepflegt. Man hat drei Schlafräume zur Auswahl, 6 Personen können also ohne weiteres in der Villa Urlaub machen. Pool ist sehr schön, Billardtisch direkt am Pool, Blick auf die Andamanensee praktisch von überall. Das Personal wie üblich thailändisch unaufdringlich, aber immer da, wenn man einen Wunsch hat. Alle Angaben von Marc absolut o.k., auch die finanzielle Abwicklung sehr korrekt. Nichts für Leute, die sich nichts zu sagen haben oder gar Animation brauchen, in der Anlage und in der Umgebung ist nichts weiter los. Essen und trinken werden durch das Personal besorgt, wir haben ein mal pro Woche abgerechnet, Preise absolut o.k. Habe meinen 50sten Geburtstag in der Villa gefeiert, war einfach ein Traum - unvergesslich. Strand der Anlage sehr klein, nur über Treppen erreichbar. Alles in allem sehr zu empfehlen, wir werden wohl wiederkommen.

My wife, my 3 children (20, 18 and 15 years old) and me spent two weeks in this beautifull villa from August 1 to 15. The villa is really fantastic, luxusary, the photos on the web show well the high level of quality. The personnal who took care of us is very professional and very nice. I can compare my stay to what I get in the best 5 stars hotel. the complex offer a nice fitness center, tennis court, restaurant with a lot of green all around. We could visit nice places and islands easely either with a driver or by renting a boat. We will definitely go there again in 2010 for our summer vacation.

We stayed at Villa at Cape Panwa February 2009 with my daughter, son-in-law and grandsons aged 9 and 12. The house was the height of luxury - setting stunning. The staff looked after us in every way. Organisation was faultless. Having a car with driver made getting around so easy. The estate of Sri Panwa is beautiful and extremely tranquill. I would rate this holiday as 5 star plus. Restaurant Babas on Sri Panwa was superb. We would love to return.
