My Beach Resort

Cape Panwa sits far enough south that Phuket's more chaotic tourism feels genuinely distant, and My Beach Resort leans into that breathing room with clean-lined modern architecture pointed straight at the Andaman Sea. Rooms go softer inside, with warm colors and Thai art, and the better ones have plunge pools a few steps from the sand. A poolside café runs breakfast through dinner, and two bars keep the sea views going after dark. Selected by the Michelin Guide.
