Phuket Luxury Villas and Hotels on Phuket, Thailand

‘Millionaires Mile’ has become the place for luxury hotels and villas on Phukets west coast and hosts some of the finest residences the island has to offer and so the name suggests is home to many millionaires.

The road starts on the very south end of Kamala beach and winds along the coast to the headland and the last development on the road, Jomchang, that overlooks Patong bay. The road was home to the very first $1m + villas many years ago and so the name ‘millionaires row’ was born. The road is a dead end at present and stops at the Jomchang development. In time the road may be extended the short distance through the forest which would allow a quicker route into Patong, but also increase tourist sightseeing traffic. The trip from Jomchang at the south end of the road down the windy road into Kamala takes 10 minutes by car with only half of the road newly resurfaced. Once the rest of the road is finished this should knock off a few minutes more.

There are a number of developments still under construction along the road, a few newly opened and of course many older properties, that still would be considered the height of luxury.

At the start of the road just out of Kamala town is Cape Sienna, a new luxury hotel with all you would expect from such a 5 star hotel. Andara is next door and again is a top of the line hotel with amazing facilities and views. Ayara resort is further up the hill and is built right into the rocks on the Andaman sea giving amazing views. Further still is Paresa hotel which sites high on the rocks overlooking the ocean and offers luxury seclusion. Paresa was opened late 2009 and has already had great feedback.

Nestled amongst these luxury hotels are a number of private luxury villas and villa developments with their own gated community. Jomchang, at the very end of millionaires row has a handful of luxury villas all above the US$7 mark. True luxury comes at a price and being on the very well healed millionaires row will of course attract a premium.
