Phuket landmark Mom Tri’s Boathouse sold
PHUKET: The owners of the Trisara resort have announced an agreement to buy Mom Tri’s Boathouse, the long-established resort and restaurant complex on the beach in Kata.
The Boathouse issued a statement yesterday that Narong Pattamasaevi, Executive Chairman of the Three Dolphins group that owns and operates Trisara, has signed contracts to acquire 100% of shares in The Boathouse Inn and Restaurant.
The deal includes other related real estate properties in Phuket, including the two Oasis open-air restaurants next door.
Mr Narong said the new owners are dedicated to continue in the same tradition that has made The Boathouse famous.
The property will remain under the management of Louis Bronner, who brought the resort its first Wine Spectator award in 1995.
Also retained will be the services of Boathouse Wine & Grill Executive Chef Jean-Noël Lumineau, Thailand’s only Maître Cuisinier de France.
The Boathouse was established over two decades ago by Mom Luang Tridhosyuth Devakul, better known as Mom Tri.
The title Mom Luang (ML) in Thai is reserved for people of royal descent.
The Boathouse has 33 rooms, plus pool villas and suites overlooking Kata Beach.
