Amanpuri (which means “peaceful place” and opened in 1988) was the very first Amanresort. It is located within a former coconut plantation overlooking the Andaman Sea on the west coast of Phuket. Amanpuri is entirely self-contained on a verdant peninsula sloping down to Pansea Beach and its pristine, sheltered cove. Amanpuri has 40 pavilions and 30 Thai villa homes, each tastefully appointed with distinctive furnishings and amenities to offer true comfort, privacy and convenience for business travelers.
