Far removed from the well-trodden tourist trails of Phuket, The Slate sits quietly on Nai Yang Beach, a 25-acre resort that redefines what a luxury escape can be. Designed by renowned architect Bill Bensley, this bold and imaginative sanctuary draws deeply from the island’s rich tin mining heritage, transforming it into a whimsical world where art, industry, and nature collide.
From the moment guests arrive, they’re surrounded by immersive design elements that tell a deeper story. Recycled materials take centre stage, whether in the “Dancing Blue Miners” sculptures made from reclaimed metal sheets, or the joyful “Happy Heels,” a piece that nods to both Phuket’s mining past and the LGBTQ community. Inside guest rooms and public spaces, metal flowers and shields crafted from recycled aluminum add another layer of thoughtful detail.
At the heart of the resort’s creative vision is The Slate Art Journey, a guided walk that reveals the meaning behind many of these captivating sculptures and accessories, offering guests an inside look at Bensley’s offbeat imagination. Alongside this, the resort’s in-house gallery, located just off the lobby, showcases a rotating collection of contemporary works by local and international artists.
Beyond the art, guests can enjoy wellness facilities, vibrant bars, superb dining, and even an outdoor snooker hall, making The Slate a world entirely its own.
