Iniala Beach House Is Thailand's Most Luxurious New Resort

For an unforgettable escape, consider philanthropist Mark Weingard’s Iniala Beach House in Phuket, Thailand. Overlooking the Andaman Sea, the five-acre property comprises four stunning villas designed by such top talents as Brazil’s Campana brothers and Jaime Hayón of Spain. The $22,750 starting rate for a sybaritic one-week stay in a three-suite villa—with plenty of room for three couples or a family—offers much in return, not least your own private spa and a full staff that includes a driver, a butler, and a chef. Adding to guests’ sense of well-being is the knowledge that 15 percent of the resort’s revenue goes to Weingard’s Inspirasia Foundation, which funds health and education projects in Thailand, Indonesia, and India. inialaom
