Introducing a New Andaman Beachfront Escape where relaxation meets discovery.
Chatrium Hospitality is set to expand its footprint in Southern Thailand with the debut of Chatrium Rawai Phuket in 2026. Marking the group’s first resort on the island, the new beachfront destination will bring Chatrium’s signature blend of understated luxury, warm Thai hospitality, and eco-conscious values to the peaceful shores of Rawai Beach.
Located on Phuket’s tranquil southern coastline, Chatrium Rawai Phuket offers a refined retreat where relaxation, cultural discovery, and seaside adventure come together. With sweeping views of the Andaman Sea and easy access to nearby islands, the resort is designed to appeal to families, couples, and travellers seeking a more authentic Phuket experience away from the crowds.
A Contemporary Resort Inspired by Nature and Thai Hospitality
Chatrium Rawai Phuket will feature 304 contemporary guest rooms, suites, and private pool villas, thoughtfully arranged in a layered architectural design. Most accommodations include private balconies that frame panoramic views of the Andaman Sea, allowing guests to fully immerse themselves in the coastal surroundings.
Interiors are designed to maximise natural light, creating a calming and comfortable atmosphere that reflects the resort’s beachfront setting. Emphasising ease and functionality, the rooms are ideal for extended stays, family holidays, and relaxed getaways. Throughout the property, Chatrium’s human-centred approach to hospitality shines through, rooted in Thai cultural values of respect, joy, and generosity.
Family-Friendly Facilities and Wellness Experiences
Chatrium Rawai Phuket places a strong focus on family travel, offering purpose-built family accommodations and dedicated facilities for guests of all ages. A vibrant kids’ club and splash pools with thrilling water slides provide a fun and engaging environment for younger guests, encouraging shared experiences and quality family time.
For those seeking relaxation and rejuvenation, the resort features a comprehensive Wellness & Spa Center, designed as a sanctuary for rest and renewal. Guests can transition seamlessly from spa treatments to the beachfront, where a dedicated water sports hub offers access to kayaking, paddleboarding, and other ocean activities.
At the heart of the resort lies a striking pool deck overlooking the Andaman Sea. This expansive space offers uninterrupted, wide-angle views of the horizon, creating an ideal setting for sunbathing, swimming, or simply unwinding as the day unfolds.
Distinctive Dining Experiences by the Sea
Dining at Chatrium Rawai Phuket is designed to celebrate local flavours and coastal living. Guests can choose from a variety of dining venues, each offering a distinct atmosphere and culinary focus.
An all-day dining restaurant draws inspiration from a traditional fisherman’s market, showcasing seafood-centric menus that highlight fresh local catches paired with the bold, aromatic flavours of Southern Thai cuisine. A poolside restaurant and bar serves tropical drinks and light fare, perfect for relaxed afternoons by the shore, while the lobby lounge provides a casual space for refreshments and informal gatherings throughout the day.
Gateway to Island Adventures and Local Culture
Rawai Beach is known for its laid-back coastal charm and strong local identity, making it an ideal base for exploration. Long-tail boats depart regularly from the beach, offering easy access to nearby islands, pristine coral reefs, and popular diving and snorkelling sites across the Andaman Sea.
The area is home to a working fishing community and the renowned Sea Gypsy Village, where visitors can purchase fresh seafood directly from local fishermen. Families and travellers can also enjoy seaside dining, boat excursions, and visits to nearby attractions such as Promthep Cape, famous for its sunset views, and the picturesque Ya Nui Beach.
Convenient Access Across Phuket
Despite its peaceful setting, Chatrium Rawai Phuket remains well connected to the rest of the island. The resort is approximately 30 to 40 minutes’ drive from Phuket Old Town and around 90 minutes from Phuket International Airport, offering a balance of seclusion and accessibility.
With its beachfront location, family-friendly facilities, wellness offerings, and strong connection to local culture, Chatrium Rawai Phuket is poised to become a sought-after destination when it opens in 2026, redefining relaxed luxury on Phuket’s southern shores.
