Design
Rosewood Phuket was constructed from scratch with a strong commitment to sustainability, particularly evident at Ta Khai, which blends seamlessly into the ambiance of a rustic fisherman’s village, enhanced by the layout's respect for the sacred ficus and banyan trees along the shoreline.
At its heart, the restaurant features rustic open pavilions crafted from carved timber posts and recycled corrugated iron. These weathered pavilions house communal tables for barbecues, served Thai family-style for small groups, with lounge seating scattered around open kitchens and live cooking stations.
The restaurant’s green roofs are adorned with plants that help reduce the surrounding temperature. Additionally, shaded buggy paths leading to the restaurant and porous pavements help minimize the impact of the sun’s energy.
Rosewood Phuket is also pioneering in food production on the property, utilizing harvests from herb and vegetable gardens at Ta Khai. The resort takes special care to protect indigenous plant species and restore jungle habitats for birds, underscoring its sensitivity to the local environment.
