Chatrium’s First Resort in Phuket
The opening of Chatrium Phuket Rawai Resort represents an important expansion for Chatrium Hospitality. While the company already operates several well-established hotels and serviced residences across Thailand and Asia, this marks its long-awaited entrance into Phuket, one of Southeast Asia’s most internationally recognized resort destinations.
Positioned directly on the peaceful shores of Rawai Beach on Phuket’s southern coastline, the new resort has been designed to provide a tranquil alternative to the island’s busier tourism districts. Guests will enjoy convenient access to some of Phuket’s most scenic coastal attractions while staying in a destination that retains much of its traditional seaside charm.

304 Rooms, Suites and Pool Villas
The resort will feature 304 accommodation units, comprising guestrooms, spacious suites and luxurious private pool villas suitable for couples, families and long-stay visitors.
Rather than adopting a generic tropical design, Chatrium has incorporated architectural elements inspired by Rawai’s historic Chao Lay fishing community. The interiors reflect the maritime heritage of the region through carefully selected textures, colors and natural materials that create an atmosphere closely connected to the surrounding coastline.
The overall design philosophy focuses on understated luxury, encouraging guests to slow down, relax and immerse themselves in the character of southern Phuket.
Designed for Families and Leisure Travelers
Chatrium Phuket Rawai Resort has been developed to appeal to a broad range of visitors, including families, couples and wellness-focused travelers.
Families will find numerous facilities dedicated to younger guests, including multiple splash pools, exciting water slides and the specially designed Kalui Kids’ Club, providing entertainment and activities throughout the day.

For guests seeking relaxation, the Nemita Spa will offer wellness treatments and therapeutic experiences, while the expansive swimming pool deck provides an inviting setting for leisurely afternoons under the tropical sun.
The combination of recreational facilities and peaceful surroundings is intended to position the property as an ideal destination for both short holidays and extended stays.
Dining Inspired by Phuket’s Coastal Heritage
Dining forms another key element of the guest experience. Instead of operating numerous small dining outlets, Chatrium Phuket Rawai Resort has opted for three carefully planned food and beverage venues that each serve a distinctive purpose.
The signature all-day dining restaurant, located adjacent to the lobby, will offer an extensive selection of international cuisine alongside authentic Southern Thai and Phuket heritage dishes prepared using fresh local ingredients.
A separate beachfront restaurant and bar will specialize in rustic wood-fired cooking, premium seafood and refreshing cocktails served in a relaxed seaside atmosphere overlooking Rawai Bay.
Completing the culinary offerings is the Pool Bar, where guests can enjoy tropical beverages, light meals and refreshments without leaving the expansive swimming pool complex.

Together, these venues aim to showcase Phuket’s rich culinary traditions while catering to international tastes.
Prime Southern Phuket Location
Rawai has long maintained its reputation as one of Phuket’s most authentic coastal communities. Unlike some of the island’s more commercialized beaches, Rawai continues to preserve its traditional fishing village atmosphere where colorful longtail boats depart daily for nearby islands and crystal-clear waters.
Guests staying at the new Chatrium resort will have easy access to several of Phuket’s most famous attractions.
These include the spectacular sunset viewpoints at Promthep Cape, the soft white sands of Nai Han Beach, and the picturesque Ya Nui Beach, all located within a short drive.
Those wishing to explore Phuket’s cultural side can reach Phuket Old Town in approximately 30 to 40 minutes, where historic Sino-Portuguese architecture, local markets and vibrant cafés offer a different perspective of the island.
Meanwhile, Phuket International Airport is situated around 90 minutes away by road, making the resort easily accessible for both domestic and international visitors.
Grand Opening Promotions Now Available
To celebrate its launch, Chatrium Hospitality has introduced its Seaside Grand Opening promotion, allowing early guests to enjoy accommodation with complimentary breakfast as part of their stay.
Current booking platforms indicate standard room rates generally ranging from approximately THB 4,999 to THB 5,762 per night, depending on travel dates and room selection.
With reservations already live and demand expected to increase as the opening approaches, the introductory offers are likely to attract both domestic holidaymakers and international travelers planning future visits to Phuket.
The arrival of Chatrium Phuket Rawai Resort reflects continued confidence in Thailand’s tourism recovery and demonstrates ongoing investment in premium hospitality infrastructure across Phuket. By combining thoughtful design inspired by local heritage, comprehensive family-friendly facilities, quality dining experiences and a desirable beachfront location, the resort is well positioned to become one of southern Phuket’s notable new accommodation choices. Its debut also reinforces Chatrium Hospitality’s growing portfolio while giving travelers another compelling luxury option on Thailand’s largest island.
