Cape Panwa Hotel is a hillside hotel at Cape Panwa on the quiet south-east tip of Phuket, built on a former coconut plantation above its own 300-metre sandy beach, with sea-facing suites from 53 sqm, two-bedroom pool villas, two pools and Cape Spa. Explera DMC works with Cape Panwa Hotel as a partner hotel and holds special trade rates for agents.
It is part of Cape & Kantary Hotels and sits in the group's Cape Collection. The hotel describes its beach as sheltered from the westerly winds and calm enough for swimming all year, and aims the property at families and independent travellers who want a peaceful base away from Phuket's busier west coast.

Selling Cape Panwa Hotel to your clients
Cape Panwa suits families, couples and repeat Phuket visitors who want a quiet beach base rather than Patong or Kata: the sea-facing suites, Family Suites and pool villas give room to spread out, and five restaurants on site mean clients need not leave the hotel each evening. The wedding terrace, beach dining and pool villas also work for small wedding and honeymoon groups; our destination wedding team can plan around them.
Quote the airport transfer carefully: the hotel is 45 km from Phuket International Airport on the opposite side of the island. Our Thailand DMC transfer team handles arrivals, and hotel bookings can pair Cape Panwa with its neighbour Kantary Bay Hotel for a larger group on two budgets.
