Destination Dining

Take “Pure Gastronomy” to a whole new level with Destination Dining, where romantic settings and meticulous attention to detail create unforgettable moments. Whether atop the Rooftop, in the Wine Lounge, or on the Enchanted Terrace, savour pure cuisine in settings that echo the beauty of Keemala’s surroundings.

Culinary Academy

Dive into a sensory journey at Keemala’s Culinary Academy, where hands-on cooking classes await in the thriving embrace of the Enchanted Garden. Learn to create dishes that delight the palate and nourish the soul, using herbs and fruits plucked straight from the garden.

Restful sleeps

Keemala’s iconic pods and villas are set in the woodlands of Kamala in Phuket. If you’ve always wanted a fantastical escape, this is the perfect destination resort for you. All 4 types of pool villas are inspired by the fictional Phuket tribes of the Pa-ta-Pea (Earth), Khon-Jorn (Wanderers), We-Ha (Sky), and Rung-Nok (Nest) people. The values and ways of life of these tribes are infused into the guests’ experience which makes for a magical and truly unique stay.

The Epitome of Rustic Luxe

All of Keemala’s villas offer relaxing tropical rainforest views, but if you want sea views as well, we suggest staying in one of the Bird’s Nest Pool Villas. While it does not have an outdoor shower like the rest of the villas, it more than makes up for it with its spacious bathroom with monsoon shower, standalone bathtub with stunning views, and an outdoor sundeck where you can spend moments of stillness and drink in more of nature’s splendour.
