On the forested hills above Kamala in Phuket, Keemala places sculptural villas among dense tropical planting. Accommodation ranges from clay cottages and tented pool villas to tree houses and woven bird’s-nest forms, each with a private pool and interiors shaped by timber, stone and handcrafted details. The main swimming pool sits within the gardens, while Mala Spa and the restaurant draw on Thai traditions, local herbs and organic produce. Curving roofs, suspended walkways and layered vegetation allow the imaginative architecture to appear gradually through the hillside canopy.
