Hello everyone

Nestled in the embrace of the Andaman Sea, Phuket Province beckons travelers with its stunning landscapes and pristine beaches. The allure of this small island, known as the pearl of the Andaman, captivates the hearts of those seeking sun-kissed shores and azure waters.

For most, the journey to this tropical paradise begins with a choice – a scenic drive or a swift flight. The Sarasin Bridge, an architectural marvel, spans the gap between Phang Nga and Phuket provinces, providing a picturesque route for those who opt for the road trip. As cars traverse the bridge, the sea breeze whispers tales of the adventures that await on the island.

However, for those who crave a quicker escape, the option of taking to the skies presents itself. A plane ride, the epitome of convenience and speed, becomes the vessel that catapults eager travelers into the embrace of Phuket's enchanting atmosphere.

Once on the island, the true essence of Phuket unfolds along its sun-drenched beaches. Each stretch of sand holds its own charm, inviting visitors to bask in the warmth of the tropical sun, dip their toes in the gentle waves, and lose themselves in the beauty that surrounds them.

Today, I'm excited to take everyone to check out this cool spot called "Rawai View" restaurant. Nestled at Soi, 1 Laem Promthep Rawai, within the enchanting landscape of Mueang Phuket District, Phuket, "Rawai View" promised not only delectable cuisine but also a feast for the eyes with its panoramic view of Rawai Beach. The anticipation grew as we set out on a journey to uncover the charm and flavors hidden within this culinary haven.

The restaurant's location on the hillside added an extra layer of allure, promising an elevated dining experience. However, the prospect of accessibility was not sacrificed for the sake of the scenic view. As we navigated through the winding roads, it became evident that reaching "Rawai View" was as easy as it was rewarding.

Inside the "Rawai View" restaurant, you step into a spacious haven with a lofty roof that gives the place an airy feel. What catches your eye immediately is the balcony, offering a prime spot to take in the open-air view. As you step out, a refreshing sea breeze welcomes you, adding a cool touch to the dining experience.

The interior is thoughtfully designed to harmonize with the seaside vibes. The building itself is crafted from wood, topped with a thatched roof that gives it a rustic charm. The furniture echoes this coastal feel – wooden tables and chairs, some woven with rattan, creating a laid-back and relaxed atmosphere.

"Rawai View" unfolds across three floors, cleverly constructed to cascade along the natural slope of the hill. As you explore, you'll discover that each level adds a unique touch to the overall dining experience.

Starting from the bottom, you find yourself in a laid-back bar situated right by the beach. The atmosphere is relaxed, making it an ideal spot to unwind with your favorite drink. What makes this space truly special is the integration of large trees that have been left in their original condition. These trees, towering and majestic, are not just part of the landscape; they've become an integral component of the restaurant's design.

As you move up through the floors, each level unveils a different perspective of the breathtaking surroundings. The cascading architecture not only maximizes the stunning views of Rawai Beach but also integrates seamlessly with the natural environment. The large trees, standing tall and proud, provide shade and a touch of nature that enhances the dining experience.

"Rawai View" isn't just a restaurant; it's an immersive journey through different levels, each offering its own unique ambiance and connection to the beautiful surroundings. The large trees, standing proudly on the bottom floor, serve as living testaments to the restaurant's commitment to preserving the natural charm of the place.

"Rawai View" and its enchanting combination of delicious food and the captivating view of Rawai Beach. It's truly a unique experience that blends culinary delights with a picturesque backdrop.

However, it's worth noting that Rawai Beach itself has its own charm, even if it may not be the ideal spot for swimming or sunbathing due to the presence of rocks and local fishing boats and speedboats scattered along the shoreline. The rugged beauty of the coastline, with its interplay of land and sea, creates a distinctive atmosphere that resonates with many who visit Phuket province.

For those seeking a quieter and more authentic beach experience, Rawai Beach offers a glimpse into the local way of life, where fishing boats are a common sight, and the shoreline tells the story of a community deeply connected to the sea.

While it may not be the typical postcard-perfect beach for some activities, Rawai Beach's unique character and natural beauty have their own allure. It's a reminder that the diversity of Phuket extends beyond just pristine sandy shores, showcasing the richness of the local culture and the symbiotic relationship between the people and the sea.
