A Reimagined Phuket
Enveloped in mystery and imagination, The Slate is a bold reimagining of Phuket’s elemental past. Here, ancient traditions intertwine with wondrous new inspirations, creating a dreamscape rich in natural beauty, sensuous elegance, and creative spirit.
Art, Industry & Imagination
Conceived by visionary architect Bill Bensley, this avant-garde sanctuary transforms a 25-acre resort into a world where industrial heritage meets artful fantasy. Inspired by Phuket’s tin-mining legacy and the Na-Ranong family history, every detail is meticulously curated—fearless in design, playful in expression, and deeply rooted in place.
Nature & Setting
Set along the turquoise waters and coral sands of Nai Yang Beach on Phuket’s serene northern shore, The Slate is bordered by the dazzling Andaman Sea on one side and protected national parkland on the other. Lush greenery and open skies create an atmosphere of rare tranquility.
A World Apart, Yet Connected
Easily accessible from Phuket International Airport and historic Phuket Town, The Slate offers seamless access to the island while remaining a magical world of peace and serenity—where past and present converge, and imagination is free to awaken.
