The Westin Siray Bay Resort & Spa, set on a tranquil hillside overlooking the Andaman Sea, isn't just a destination—it's a curated sanctuary where every generation of the family, from toddlers to grandparents, finds their rhythm.

With its contemporary Thai architecture, panoramic ocean views and child-conscious luxury, Westin Siray Bay has emerged as one of Phuket's most thoughtful family resorts—offering the balance that modern travelers crave: time to relax, time to play and time to reconnect. Space to breathe, together and apart.

Families arriving at Westin Siray Bay are often struck first by the sense of space. Unlike the denser, high-rise resorts clustered around Patong or Karon, this property unfolds gradually across a lush hillside, offering a mix of private pool villas, family suites and interconnecting rooms—all angled to frame sea views and maximize privacy.

For multigenerational travelers, the Two-Bedroom Pool Villas are a standout. With separate living areas, shaded terraces and private infinity pools, they allow families to gather for shared moments without sacrificing solitude. Floor-to-ceiling windows invite in the bay's blues, while Westin's signature beds and thoughtful touches—like kid-sized robes or baby gear on request—create a home-like comfort layered with luxury.

The design ethos is understated and natural, echoing the resort's tranquil location on Siray Island, just a short bridge away from Phuket's main town, yet worlds apart in mood.

All-day ease, from sunrise to stars.

What sets Westin Siray Bay apart for families isn't just the setting—it's the seamlessness of the stay. From sunrise to nightfall, the resort caters to the needs of each family member with understated efficiency.
