Discover Somewhere Only We Know: A Hidden Paradise Beyond the Ordinary Imagine a place where every moment is crafted just for you. Hidden away on three private beaches, SOWK is more than just a stay—it’s an experience waiting to unfold. By choice, we limit ourselves to only 3 villas each for 2 people only to ensure the highest level of personalized attention and absolute privacy, where time and space are yours alone. Each visit is unique, with no crowds, just you and nature. From the start, your journey to the resort begins with a short (5/7 minutes), secret hike through nature—not just a path, but the beginning of a magical escape that preserves the seclusion and tranquility that define SOWK. We of course carry your luggage for you. Our dedicated concierge opens up the island’s best-kept secrets, curating adventures and wellness experiences tailored to your desires, any time of the year. Experience a New Kind of Luxury: Imagined and built by Designer Guillaume Brachet, all villas are sea view or beachfront, free high speed WIFI, in-room complimentary spring water, teas and coffees in-room safe, designer’s unique furniture and handcrafted double round bed. At SOWK, luxury is measured by emotions, not just amenities. Glide from your bedroom straight to the beach, swim in a natural pool, or relax on a 16-yard observation net that brings you closer to nature. Our bedrooms are fully air conditioned and our bathrooms and living rooms are covered but open onto the surrounding nature. All have a privately gated large garden. All have access to our private beaches. Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in eco-technologies that provide maximum comfort while preserving the environment. At our Private Beachfront Restaurant & Bar enjoy organic Thai and Burmese cuisine, made with locally sourced ingredients, from farm to table, along with signature drinks with a selection of spirits and rare Thai natural wines. Explore the Secret Island: With 78 unique experiences, from tranquil wellness treatments to hidden jungle adventures and even lively island gatherings, Koh Phangan offers something special every month. Your journey is customized by our concierge, who holds the key to discovering this one-of-a-kind island like never before. Free use of our SUP, glass kayak and snorkeling gears. Transfers available. Don’t Miss Out: Hosting just 6 guests at a time, this is a rare opportunity. A stay at SOWK isn’t just a booking—it’s a memory in the making. Join us and find out why staying at SOWK feels like you’ve uncovered a secret.
