Inspired by Phuket’s rich cultural and industrial history, The Slate, Phuket is an exotic oasis of calm, set just behind the secluded Nai Yang beach. Designed with the inspiration of the local tin-mining industry, local artwork, natural materials and luxury facilities will ensure you’ll have everything for a stay that is both authentic and indulgent. Close to some of Phuket’s finest beaches, The Slate has beautiful tropical gardens and a backdrop of dense rainforest for that true Thai experience. The accommodation is divided into villas and pool suites, each combining luxury, authenticity, comfort and convenience, to make sure you get the best possible night's sleep. At Black Ginger, The Slate's magnificent floating restaurant, you can experience the subtle, sensuous flavours of Phuket whilst marvelling at the beauty of your spectacular surroundings. The black interior, shot through with accents of brilliant blue from the chandeliers, creates the perfect backdrop for sampling some of Thailand's most innovative culinary delights. For pre and post-dinner drinks, there's open air lounge bar Rebar, where you can relax with a cocktail as you soak up the sun. If you're looking for the ultimate luxury pampering experience, The Slate's Coqoon Spa is the place to go. Devoted exclusively to wellness and indulgence, the spa features luxurious double treatment rooms, a private swimming pool, steam showers, a sauna and a Jacuzzi.

This is the most beautiful resort
Luxury and service are top notch
We have been to Phuket many times and nai yang is perfect for us
A short commute from
The airport
Many massage and eating places around
We spent most of our time at the main pool as we were travelling with a 12 year old who made friends in the pool
The kids club was great too with many activities being run
The gym was busy but I loved Carmen who took some amazing classes at 8.30 am
Ian at the pool was very kind and bought water and fruit sticks around and relayed my dietary requirements to the kitchen
Food at breakfast is 10/10
Coffee can be busy but it’s fantastic
Cheap food available outside the resort
We ate at the pool bar area twice at night and enjoyed the cocktails at the bar which had a singer a number of times
Would absolutely love to visit again next year
Pack repellant and use it

Incredible Stay. Amazing resort in Fantastic Location

I honestly do not know where to begin to discribe my love of this hotel. I have traveled the world for work or pleasure for more than fifty years and this may be the best hotel/resort I have ever stayed at.
The design is flawless. You cant help but feel every tree and plant was specifically designed to be where it is. The grounds are stunning. …

I honestly do not know where to begin to discribe my love of this hotel. I have traveled the world for work or pleasure for more than fifty years and this may be the best hotel/resort I have ever stayed at.
The design is flawless. You cant help but feel every tree and plant was specifically designed to be where it is. The grounds are stunning. Four pools ( one adults only) that are absolutely lovely.
Location: Only ten minutes from airport but never heard a plane. Walk out the back entrance to beautiful NaiNang Beach and village. Its a way from the craziness of other areas of Phuket but there are many restaurants, massage palors and weed stores in a lovely laid back setting. No dealing with the crazy traffic in Phuket.
The food at the main restaurant on site ( the only one I ate at) was delicious and reasonabbly priced for a 5 start hotel.
And finally, the people. The staff I encountered were genuine and always smiling and helpful.
Highly reccomend for solo, family, or romantic stay in Thailand.

Excellent t hotel with polite caring staff

This is in my top five hotels.
The location , decor, landscaping, cleanliness are all high quality.
The staff are exceptional being polite and genuinely caring.
The Hotel App you download when arrive is very helpful and informative.
It is a large hotel but didn’t feel crowded around pools or restaurants.
I can’t wait to go back
Another fabulous stay!

The kids had the best time playing in the kids pool area. We also had a chance to enjoy the adult pool without them which was great. The breakfast buffet is great too so much variety and especially the cute shaped pancakes, that was a favourite. We will definitely be back again :)
