This modern Thai-style penthouse is now back on the renting market after being fully renovated and now sets a boutique and luxury standard that is unique in Phuket.

Just minutes walk away from Surin Beach with panoramic ocean views from all rooms spread out over 400 square meters of space, this stylish penthouse is aimed towards discerning guests who appreciate taste and attention to detail.

The four-storey penthouse sits on the hillside overlooking Surin Bay and the Andaman Sea, and is just across the road from the beach and the bay, which is home to Thailand's top resort, Amanpuri, as well a number of designer hotels, restaurants and shops.

The penthouse is unique because there are not many private penthouses available in Surin so close to the beach. Most of the penthouses are located far away on the hillside, and you will need a car to get to the beach. The development, of which this penthouse is part, is closer to the beach than any other resort or penthouse on the main Surin Beach.

The penthouse comprises a secluded master suite that takes up the entire top floor, 80 square meters of romantic space away from guests and children, where you can soak away in the ocean-facing spa tub or relax on the private sun deck and day bed.

Down one floor is the open-plan living and dining room with full-length doors that open out onto a terrace with infinity pool and a tropical sala. The fully-equipped Western-style kitchen is also on this floor. This level and the master suite are fully wired, both for sound and the Internet, which means you can sit out in the sala, listen to music while you surf online.

There are also two double bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms on the bottom level, with full and open views and private balconies. The house also has a study/TV room with ensuite toilet on another floor that can be used as a fourth bedroom.

The penthouse has its own wireless network and broadband Internet and. Set in landscaped gardens, it is part of a luxurious development that includes eight other houses managed by Knight Frank. The estate is under 24-hour security. The penthouse has a two-car garage and a maid that comes three times a week.

Surin Beach on the western coast of Phuket is often coined "Millionaire's Row" because of its high-end developments, boutique hotels and restaurants. It is a quiet but sophisticated beach that includes many beach-side restaurants, a beach club, as well as higher-end restaurants, bars and shopping malls. Despite the high-end development, it still retains a penthousege charm, with 6pm outdoor aerobic classes for the locals in the park, and a little Thai food market on the beach road.

It's central location means it is 20 minutes from Phuket airport to the north and Phuket town to the south.
