Villa Escape Burasari

I absolutely loved my stay here! It’s a peaceful retreat that’s hard to find in Phuket. Even though I stayed for just one night, it was truly a wonderful experience. From the very beginning, the staff on the boat were incredibly helpful, making the journey smooth and enjoyable. The food was delicious, and despite the number of guests, the atmosphere remained calm and relaxing, never disturbing my peaceful getaway. One of my favorite parts was the activities, especially the guided cycling tour around the island to explore the local way of life. A special thanks to Yut, our guide—she took great care of us and made me feel safe even on unfamiliar roads. This two-hour bike trip made me fall in love with this place even more! I also appreciated the meditation spot, which was incredibly serene, allowing me to truly relax both body and mind. Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience—I can’t wait to return!

We just returned from a wonderful one-day getaway at this private villa, and it was absolutely perfect! The villa offered excellent privacy. The nearby beach was stunning and easily accessible, making our short stay incredibly relaxing and memorable. It's probably one of the best experiences anyone could have in Thailand! One of the highlights was definitely the delicious food provided—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every meal enhanced the whole experience, making our vacation feel truly luxurious. The atmosphere was peaceful, and the surroundings were beautifully maintained. Staff members were attentive and friendly, adding to our positive experience. I highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a private, tranquil retreat with great amenities. We loved it and will certainly be back! Special thanks to F, for helping and assisting us.

This was difficult to rate as we started with a very poor experience but finished with an exceptional one. We arrived after the free speedboat transfer finished (7pm) so followed vague instructions to get a public longboat crossing. We really struggled to find anyone and the hotel instructions were very poor, so it took a while, and was stressful. Once collected by a tuk-tuk that the ferryman arranged we literally came through the back of the property through the workshops, desalination plant and sewerage area. Not a great start. Reception was slow, disorganised, and just looked like a temporary table set out under cover outside. We started feeling this is not the 5 star we’d booked and paid for. Upon entering our villa, the place just looked a little tired - stains in the sink, bath, sofa and outside loungers. A check with the brochure pictures and it was clear that the images were from new, not a true representation of today. Our first evenings meal at their Eat restaurant, turned out to be a disaster. 30 mins after order the wine finally arrived, 1 hour 20 mins after the order, food finally arrived and was incorrect. We requested a meeting with the manager the following day. ‘F’ was our assigned host who looked after us via WhatsApp messaging, and she did a fabulous job under difficult circumstances. We discussed the issues with a very caring and pleasant manager, and from this point on after our complaint they couldn’t be more helpful. Needless to say we enjoyed a fantastic spa massage, cycling and a comp’d dinner which was very good. And I can’t praise them enough for the way they pulled a grim experience into a great one, latterly during the stay. F looked after us so well and nothing was too much trouble. She was fantastic. In summary, it’s not a 5 star resort, and you’re pretty trapped as there’s nothing else around unless you go to the mainland. That said if you’re ok with some bits a little shabby, it makes a great break, I’d guess not ideal for children.
