Our favourite rooms
Location will determine your call: Lagoon Tents are quieter with tropics tickling their exteriors and sweet scenes as frogs leap between lily pads. Beach Tents have a close-to-the-sands advantage, but tend to be a little louder as they’re also nearer Catch Beach Club. Whichever area you land on, just be sure to secure yourself a tent with a private plunge pool — the Lagoon Pool Tented Suite is our front-runner.
Poolside
Most tents come with their own plunge pools, but if you're after more swimming space, the central pool (open 7am to 7pm) makes for a pretty place to settle. Its edges are flanked with sunloungers, parasols and tropical greenery, as well as an ice bath, hot tub and sauna.
Spa
The tented spa may be small, but its in-the-tropics setting is big on serenity. Massages turn to traditional Thai practices and organic products to heal in its solitary treatment room; a sauna, hot tub and ice bath bolster this healing spot's appeal.
Packing tips
Cash is customary at Phuket’s storied night markets, so be sure to bring some baht in your bag.
Also
For lo-fi beach days centred around neighbouring The Lazy Coconut, sunloungers and day-beds are available with a day pass (additional fees apply).
Pet‐friendly
Dogs aren’t allowed at Twinpalms, with the exception of certified service animals. See more pet-friendly hotels in Phuket.
Children
Twinpalms Tented Camp welcomes over-16s only.
Sustainability efforts
Low-rise tents were carefully designed to limit interference with the island’s natural habitats; thoughtful amenities, such as Kangen water bottles and biodegradable packaging, help reduce single-use plastic; and the hotel’s restaurant champions seasonal ingredients and local suppliers.
