Point Yamu by COMO

Add to wishlist Contact us

Uncluttered yet colourful with 79 rooms and suites plus 27 private villas it is not a small hotel, however, sitting with a 360-degree view of Phang Nga Bay it has a feeling of space and serenity.

Most rooms have private terraces with views across Phang Nga Bay or inland across the Cape, while the pool suites and private villas benefit from their own swimming pools.

Why we like Point Yamu by COMO

COMO Point Yamu is an example of contemporary design but staying true to the brand ethos of COMO.  The property offers some of the best dining in Phuket with a choice of Italian, Thai or their healthy COMO Shambhala Cuisine, provided by their well-respected spa.

  • 100 metre infinity swimming pool
  • Small gym
  • COMO Beach Club
  • COMO Shambhala Retreat

Activities

COMO Point Yamu is a place to switch off and enjoy the view and the exceptional service, which is standard at all COMO properties. Walk along the beach and meet a local fisherman coming ashore with his catch, spend the day a the stunning beach club, accessible by 20-minute speedboat where you can relax under a sala, watch the gentle waves roll in and eat fresh grilled fish on the warm sand. This part of Phuket is popular for sailing and has good diving and snorkelling sites, far from the mainstream.
