Conceived in 1982, the resort was an early pioneer that brought a new level of luxury to the exotic tropical island that was relatively undiscovered at that time. Originally known as The Pansea due to its exceptional location along the fine white sand of Pansea Beach, The Surin Phuket has been revitalised over the years under the careful guidance of Ed Tuttle, one of America's most renowned architect.
