A luxury eco resort in Phuket is setting the benchmark for sustainability.

There’s nowhere quite like Trisara, an exclusive boutique hotel set on Phuket’s less-visited north-west coast. Jaw-dropping ocean views roll out from every villa over a sparkling half-moon bay, begging to be snorkelled. With a name that lives up to its translation, “the garden in the third heaven,”it comes as little surprise that the well-heeled journey here from all over the world.

Privacy is the unspoken rule. Aside from the peaked red rooftops which intermittently pierce the jungle, you feel completeley alone. Elegant and understated, each villa has its own infinity pool screened by lush hedges of vivid birds of paradise flowers. It makes the outdoor shower an irresistable, gloriously secluded, morning ritual. (Side note – Trisara has been listed as one of the world’s best places for a skinny dip).
