The Slate Phuket has claimed nine accolades at the World Luxury Awards 2026, a sweep that speaks to the resort’s commitment to creative vision across every dimension of the experience. The honours span three distinct award ceremonies: the World Luxury Hotel Awards, World Luxury Spa Awards and World Luxury Restaurant Awards, each recognising a different facet of what the resort has built along Phuket’s shoreline.
The resort itself claimed three titles: Best Luxury Resort in Asia, Best Luxury Design Hotel in Thailand and Best Luxury Art Hotel in South East Asia. These recognitions acknowledge the thoughtful architecture that defines the property, where slate grey surfaces anchor interiors punctuated by contemporary art and considered detail. The lobby opens to gardens where palms rise through manicured landscapes, while intimate spaces throughout the resort reveal layers of artistic intention.
Coqoon Spa, the resort’s wellness sanctuary, earned three awards of its own: Best Unique Experience Spa in Asia, Best Luxury Destination Spa in Thailand and Best Spa Design Theme in South East Asia. The venue marries restorative practice with distinctive design language, creating environments where stillness and visual sophistication converge.
Black Ginger, the resort’s restaurant, claimed the most competitive prize: Best Luxury Unique Experience, awarded globally across all entries. It also won Best Most Luxurious Ambience in Asia and Best Thai Cuisine in Asia. These recognitions underscore the kitchen’s commitment to the textures and techniques of Thai gastronomy, refined through premium ingredients and thoughtful preparation.
The breadth of these wins reflects what has defined The Slate from its inception: an approach that treats design, wellness and culinary arts not as separate domains but as expressions of the same creative ethos. The resort sits in Kamala, accessible from Phuket International Airport.
