Panwa House is a striking three-star Thai restaurant set in a conservative Sino-Portuguese building on the southeastern coast of Phuket. The atmosphere here is simply stunning — especially in the evening, when dining under the stars, surrounded by trees and twinkling lights, feels nothing short of magical.
The service is excellent, and the food is authentically Thai — rich in flavor and tradition. When you place your order, the staff will kindly check your spice preferences, as Phuket’s local cuisine is known for its fiery heat that can surprise even seasoned spice lovers.
The restaurant is located within the Panwa hotel complex. Head to the hotel’s main entrance and they’ll guide you to a tram that will take you down to the beachside dining area.
Price per person: 1000฿+
