Of all tropical islands hideaways, Phuket is exceptional in its natural beauty and unspoilt charm. Just over one hour's flying time from Bangkok, Phuket's sun-drenched beaches are bathed by the warm clear waters of the Andaman Sea and backed by lush vegetation-clad hills.

The Residence Kalim Bay's luxurious sea-facing apartments, located on not more than four floors are built in a typical Thai style, with the finest of natural Thai materials such as teak, terracotta and cane. Our large and beautifully designed swimming pool, Jacuzzi and children's pool nestle amidst The Residence's tropical Thai garden providing a focal point to the Residence, while a stone's throw away is Kalim Beach, a fine stretch of powdery white sand rimmed by coconut palms, a shore where fishermen occasionally still cast nets in the early hours of dawn.

Sophisticated yet comfortable, these spacious 100 square metre apartments accommodate up to four adults in two double bedrooms with an attached western-style bathroom. All apartments have satellite television and radio facilities and an IDD telephone.

The view from the sea-facing balconies are fabulous. Just five minutes from Patong, The Residence enjoys a tranquil location on the fringe of Phuket's tourist area. It fronts its own beach at undeveloped Ban Kalim, near enough to Patong to enjoy the shops and entertainment but far enough to be apart from the hustle and crowds.
