Dear Methee, Wipa, Benja & all staff at Rising Sun Residence.
When choosing accommodation, we were looking for somewhere that had villas with nice surroundings and personalised service. We got just that and so much more at Rising Sun Residence! The villas are nicely decorated with good quality finishings and furniture and they here a very homely feel. Every time we swam in the pool, one of us would say something like “How nice is this?” The gardens are beautiful and so well maintained, giving a very relaxed feel. The housekeeping service from Chaloaw was fantastic. She was so sweet friendly and polite. I wish I could take her home with me!
Benja made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. She is so warm & friendly and provided us with excellent service, making us feel like royalty!
Our driver, Khun Mit was also very good. Having a driver was a wonderful bonus!
A big thank you to Methee and Wipa, you have been amazing hosts, providing such a personalised service, far beyond what we expected. We definitely agree with other guests’ comments that you made us feel like part of the family. We had a lovely dinner with you and really appreciated your hospitality and your company. We will highly recommend Rising Sun Residence to our family and friends, and look forward to coming back ourselves.

Dear Methee & Wipa and all the staff at Rising Sun,
Wow! What an amazing place. Thank you all so much for making our stay so memorable, it was the perfect way to end our Thailand holiday. The venue here is breathtakingly beautiful, the villas are spotlessly clean and beautifully appointed, the pool area is divine, the details in everything make it even more special. And what incredible service!! We have never encountered better and more personal service anywhere. A big thank you to Benja, Khun Mit & Chaloaw who have each been amazing. We loved our dinner with you Methee & Wipa, the best Thai food and wonderful hosts! Everything here has surpassed our expeditions, we truly did feel like extended family. Also all of your restaurant recommendations have been fantastic, giving us our favourite dining experiences here. Even the Thai massage was the best (and we have had many!)
We will definitely be recommending Rising Sun Residences to all our friends in Australia Thank you!
Until next time Love & best wishes, |

We would like to thank you and all your staff for their help and kindness during our stay. The villa-housekeeper really makes us happy with our morning breakfast. This was an excellent way to start the day with smile and fresh toast and neatly presented cooked food and drinks. My wife was also so happy when we came home from a trip to find the fruit cut and prepared in the refrigerator ready to eat as soon as we came home.
Ben helped us with our constant moving of our time table. She and the villa- housekeeper are rally great advert for the resort. We will be telling everyone we know about this Residence and the friendly homely atmosphere.
We can see how Wipa & Methee have worked hard to create a great feeling in this place and now we realize we should have booked for longer.
We will be back for a longer stay and enjoy this mood again soon. |

I felt very disappointed that I need to leave here today. It is great that we can stay in this “residence” for 8 days. It makes me like staying at home with my family.
We love traveling. We had visited many countries and staying in lots of hotel but we can say RSR is the Best!!!
Best Service – Driver, Massage, Cook, Reception.
Best Rooms – 3 Bed for my child and BB and me.
As my wife said, we stay with a Royal life. Thank you so much for your hospitality. We have a wonderful holiday. I will introduce all my friend coming here when they are in Phuket.
P.S. Special thanks for Ben and Sukan

To all the staff at The Rising Sun,
You have all been so kind and attentive, like your other guests, we feel “Thank you” alone is not enough! Nonetheless, A big thank you to Mameaw first, for organizing so many wonderful evenings out at superb restaurants for us and even letting us chance villas after a particularly frog kept us awake one night!! Secondly, to our three drivers Khun Mit, Khun Jeab and Khun Sit for patiently chauffeuring us all over this beautiful island and thirdly to Joy our housekeeper who so discreetly waited on us hand and foot at breakfast every morning and kept our villa clean. Without the help of all of you, this would not have been the fantastic holiday it has turned out to be.
We leave with sadness but take with us a multitude of happy memories and the peace and tranquility here have restored our sanity and undoubtedly “recharged the batteries”!
I would love to think we could return before too long.
Again, a big “Thank you” for our perfect stay and our best wishes to all of you |

Dear Methee, Wipa and Staff
“Thank you” hardly seems enough to say to you, but both Steven and myself say it to you with true sincerity, gratitude and a happy heart. You have made our stay here so special and wonderful. It has been a very personable stay that we will always remember and take great joy in telling others about. (again and again)
Your eye for detail and attention is commendable. We have never experienced anything like this from many of the good places we have stayed. We rate you our No I best place to stay.
We will return! Accommodation was great! Food was great! (Especially the cooking class with Wipa)
Grounds and views – brilliant
Ambience – fantastic
Staff – simply wonderful and the most friendly and attentive people we have met. We really could write pages of good things that we have experienced while staying with you. I guess we should finish where we started. THANK YOU Please forgive my bad writing + spelling but thankfully I have not had to worry about this for 3 weeks. BLESS YOU ALL |
