Amanpuri (which means a€œpeaceful placea€ and opened in 1988) was the very first Amanresort. It is located within a former coconut plantation overlooking the Andaman Sea on the west coast of Phuket. Amanpuri is entirely self-contained on a verdant peninsula sloping down to Pansea Beach and its pristine, sheltered cove.

Forty pavilions and 30 Thai villa homes are interspersed throughout the coconut grove. The resort's pavilions are 115 square metres each, including the private outdoor terrace. Pavilion rates are determined according to view and location. All pavilions feature an outdoor sala, a king-size bed, separate bath and shower, refrigerator with fully stocked minibar, electronic safe, stereo CD cassette system, IDD services and wireless broadband connections, also available in public areas of the resort, and air-conditioning. Pavilions 105 and 103 enjoy the best views of the Andaman Sea.

Pavilions: These constitute the starting category and are set along the resort's internal passageway with six rooms in all. Superior Garden Pavilions: Twenty-five garden pavilions are interspersed among the coconut palms. Superior Ocean Pavilions: Four pavilions have partial sea views. Deluxe Ocean Pavilions: These three pavilions offer sea views. Villas Homes: Adjacent to the resort, almost hidden by coconut palms, are 30 Villa Homes, many with ocean-front settings. Each villa consists of two to six separate bedrooms finished with Thai furnishings, art and antiques. Villas also enjoy a private pool plus living and dining Thai salas. A live-in maid and cook attend to all guests' needs, including the preparation of Thai cuisine in a private kitchen. Amanpuri villas are ideal for small business meetings, weddings and special events.

The Terrace restaurant offers casual, all-day dining in an alfresco setting and features Thai and European specialties. The Restaurant serves Italian cuisine and is open for dinner all year round and for lunch during high season. Both restaurants are located beside the swimming pool. Weather-permitting, lunches are held at the Beach Terrace and during high season, evening torch-lit beach barbecues. The Bar offers poolside drinks and snacks. At last light, half a dozen moulded-brass tables and pairings of teak, rattan-backed chairs are set out along the terrace between the pool and the steps leading to the beach. The view is to the sun setting on the Andaman Sea. Room service is available, 24 hours a day, in the privacy of the pavilions and outdoor salas.

Aman Spa: The Aman Spa opened here in December 2001. The spa features three double rooms for couples and three single rooms. Each room has its own changing area, steam shower, treatment area, and outdoor sala (pavilion) for lounging. There is also a sauna and steam room. Spa services include a range of massage and holistic therapies, facials, scrubs, body wraps, baths and beauty treatments with salas for meditation and yoga sessions.
