This is a wonderful place to stay. Wipa, the owner and her staff can't do enough to make your stay special.Seeing it is out of the rush & bustle of Phuket having the car & driver for 9 hours is a real treat. The setting is great, with a beautiful swimming pool right outside your door. Breakfast is brought to... More

Our 4th visit to the Rising Sun Residence in Phuket was, as usual, a relaxing, wonderful time for all the family. Wipa and Methee (hosts) are always welcoming and put themselves out to accommodate our needs. The villas are private and the pool, at the end of a hot day looking at the sights, is bliss. A driver is provided... More

We chose the Rising Sun Residence because we wanted a quiet place in Phuket to relax and it turned out to be exactly what we were looking for. We stayed for three days in March in one of the one bedroom villas (number 4 if I remember it well) which are clustered around the main swimming pool in the lower... More

Stayed here for 2 nights - but wished we had time for more. Hosts and staff were extremely welcoming and the property itself has a special feel to it. The owners have certainly put their heart and soul into it. Phuket Island itself has limited appeal, but this place alone makes a return visit a distinct possibility. More

A wonderful place to wile away the hours...either sit by the pool in fantastic surroundings or allow the fabulous hosts to sort out excursions to one of the myriad of fascinating places to visit. The service was the best we had ever received, the food & the staff were exceptional......Khun Wipa & Khun Methee were the best hosts we have... More

I was on an extended trip to SE Asia and booked the Rising Sun Residence for 11 nights at two days' notice on the basis of a quick reading of Trip Advisor reviews. Fortunately those reviews were accurate. I totally concur with all the positive comments by other reviewers. To stay there was a unique and special experience that I... More

We stayed at a one bedroom villa which we originally booked for 3 nights but liked it so much that we finally ended up staying 9 nights. The formula is great & clever : the owners (Khun Wipa & Khun Methee) want you to feel at home and therefore they created this place : the staff (all of them very... More

Upon arrival I immediately felt welcomed,the rooms were well presented and the staff very attentive. The view is spectacular,waking up each morning with the sun rising above Chalong Bay, was a great way to start the day. Staying on the hill above the crowds for us was ideal, after a day of sight seeing it was great to retire to... More

We had a wonderful 5 night stay at The Rising Sun Residence and I agree with all the positive things said in other reviews. The owners and staff could not be more friendly or helpful. The service was excellent. The only advice I would like to give is DEFINITELY BOOK THROUGH THE RESORT DIRECTLY NOT A BOOKING AGENCY. We made... More
