Anantara Mai Khao Phuket Villas is a resort in northern Phuket designed around quiet, space, and a sense of retreat. The grounds feel like a meticulously kept tropical garden, with leafy paths, plenty of room to cycle around, and an overall atmosphere of privacy. A clean beach is nearby, though the sea here can have strong currents, so swimming isn’t always ideal.
Accommodation is centred on private pool villas — spacious, well laid out, and built for seclusion, with a courtyard and outdoor lounging areas (some categories also feature an open‑air bathtub). The resort is divided into different residential zones: villas closer to the beach deliver a more cohesive “resort” feel, while the buildings across the road — near the busier main road — feel more detached.
One of the hotel’s standout strengths is its service, including a personal butler and an attentive team that supports guests from arrival and reservations to organising private dinners, island excursions, and everyday requests. Breakfast is generous in both variety and quality, the restaurants offer several strong dishes (including vegetarian options), and the bar is known for well‑presented cocktails. For those staying on property, there are daily activities such as yoga, Muay Thai, workshops, a mini farm, tennis courts, a games room, and a small climbing area. Families will also find a children’s pool with slides, inflatable play features, and a kids’ club (compact in size).
The location is convenient for the airport and Turtle Village just across the road, with shops, a 7‑Eleven, cafés, and massage places. On the other hand, Phuket Town and many of the island’s popular beaches are a long drive away. Practical points to note: given the size of the resort, buggy pick‑ups can sometimes involve a wait; in some rooms the sliding doors may not provide perfect sound insulation; valuables are best kept in the safe; and if you have food allergies, it’s worth repeating your restrictions with every order. Certain areas may occasionally close for renovation.
