The moment we stepped out of PI airport, we knew we were going to have a great time. We were greeted by our driver with a big sunny smile. He loaded our luggage and was already instructed by Khun Wipa and Ms. Prapussorn where we wanted to go. We were forewarned by Trip-advisors that there might be a language barrier... More

I had very high hopes for this place. A tripadvisor traveller's choice winner and one of the top places to stay in Phuket. I feel that at the moment the hotel is resting on it's laurels and needs to raise standards to deserve the 5 star ratings and amazing comments. It is a mystery to me how there continue to... More

This year, 2013, together with my family and friends, we decided to enjoy the spring break for the second time in a raw at the Rising Sun Residence in Phuket. Usually the second time in the same place is not an enthusiastic experience like the first one; in this case I have to admit that it actually was. Definitely! The... More

A lovely and amazing stay I had with my family in Rising Sun Residence. It was a great fun. The rooms were really so good and beautifull. The reception lobby was excellent. The swimming pool is also very good. The staff was really nice and service was very good. The food was also good and we really enjoyed a lot.... More

Been to Phuket many times, staying at Patong, Laguna (Banyan Tree) and Mai Khao resorts, etc...Rising Sun Residence beats them all in terms of personalized service and attention. The arrival reception was excellent - we were picked up by a comfortable car arranged by the Rising Sun Residence with no wait at the airport that took us literally door-to-door at... More

A very relaxing environment to stay in, and the villa has lovely sized rooms. I would say there is a slight language barrier issue at times, but the service from Wipa & her staff is excellent. Having the driver is invaluable as the resort is on a steep hill, so you can't walk anywhere. Our driver spoke little English &... More

Rising Sun Residence is a great little oasis from which to explore Phuket. Our one-bedroomed villa was great with a good sized bedroom (with good air con), and a nice living room/kitchen area. And its also great to have the pool on your front doorstep. We virtually had the pool to ourselves during our time there, though if all five... More

Stayed in a 3 bedroom villa as the one bedroom villas were all taken. We were there for 5 nights, Sunday to Friday, January 13 till the 18th.There were three of us, myself, wife & daughter, and let me tell you, we were living in the lap of luxury! Tastefully decorated with warm tile floors on the main level (you... More

Khun Wipa and Her team makes you feel right at home. From the pick up at the airport to having breakfast cooked in the mornings to having your days planned out for you. They recommend you the best places to visit and restaurants to dine at. Having your own driver and car is such an added bonus. This is our... More
