Mom Tri’s Villa Royale wins World Luxury Hotel Award

Mom Tri’s Villa Royale in Phuket Thailand is proud to be selected by World Luxury Hotels as a finalist for 2009 in the category of most romantic hotel. The World Luxury Hotel Awards are accepted as the pinnacle of achievement for Luxury Hotels worldwide.

This should come as no surprise as Mom Tri’s Villa Royale is a boutique hotel situated on a hillside offering an intimate setting overlooking the Andaman Sea and the white sand beach of Kata Noi. Popular with honeymooners, its picturesque setting with sea views and lush gardens create a perfect romantic hideaway.

In addition to wining a Luxury Hotel award, Mom Tri’s Villa Royale has enjoyed the number one position on Trip Advisor for hotels in Phuket for most of 2009. Villa Royale has been rated excellent in 94 % of its reviews on Trip Advisor.

A small hotel with only thirty-five suites but ten different types of accommodation, Villa Royale offers something sure to please everyone. Traditional Thai décor and art can be found in the Beach Wing Suites, in addition to a private wine cellar in Toey Talay, and a private plunge pool in the most luxurious Pool Suite. Suites also enjoy large balconies and panoramic sea views.

For couples seeking more contemporary surroundings, the new Royale Suites were just completed in November 2009. They have a very modern design, extra large balconies, sea views and Mom Tri’s boutique touch.

Villa Royale is located on a headland over looking the quiet and idyllic beach of Kata Noi; an internal path leads to the beach which is just a few steps away. Kata Noi is quiet and secluded yet only a few minutes from the main center of Kata.

Harvard educated Mom Luang Tri Devakul, better known simply as Mom Tri, has been a pioneer in the development of Phuket as a premier travel destination. A renowned architect, in 1985 he built a house for himself on a hillside between Kata and Kata Noi, which started out as a simple thatched-roof bungalow. Over the years it expanded into a collection of buildings that now comprise Mom Tri's Villa Royale, one of Phuket's most beautiful and exclusive boutique hotels.
