Cassia Phuket sits inside the Laguna Phuket resort complex, just 1 km from Rhythm Park - the official venue of EDC Thailand 2026. Guests can walk, bike, or hop on the shuttle to the festival gates in minutes.

As one of the most social-minded apartment hotels in Phuket, Cassia gives festival-goers the perfect basecamp: roomy serviced apartments with kitchenettes, bold interiors, a lively pool scene, co-working corners, and chill social lounges ideal for pre-game or wind-down sessions. Our spacious two-bedroom apartments are designed for friends or groups, with generous shared living space that combines freedom, flexibility, and the Cassia “stay your way” vibe.

When hunger calls, indulge in local favourites at a nearby top-rated Phuket restaurant before sinking into restful comfort at your personal refuge.

For travellers who want convenience without the VIP-resort price tag, Cassia Phuket is the smart, stylish stay that mirrors the festival’s energy while still giving you space to recharge.

More than a typical beachfront hotel in Phuket, Cassia opens up a world full of local wonders that await your exploration.

Daytime escapes

The salt-laden air of Bang Tao Beach entices you to dive into the turquoise waters, while boat rides along the Laguna canals take you around Laguna before presenting a culinary journey through the region’s authentic dishes. The nearby Phuket Old Town’s Sino-Portuguese streets also bring cultural values to life - an interesting side activity from EDC.

Night scene

Phuket’s nightlife is diverse and energetic, evident at bustling beach clubs, round-the-clock restaurants with diverse flavours, and local night markets during the weekend.

After having a blast in the magic of EDC, your much-needed break begins from the comfort of your room at Cassia Phuket. Stress is left at the door as you are treated to rejuvenating spa rituals at Banyan Tree Spa Phuket or Angsana Laguna Phuket Spa - an indulging moment away from the outside world. As morning dawns, lounge by the pool, join a reflective yoga class, or simply kick back in your private Phuket serviced apartments, where convenience is at your fingertips.

Few destinations can rival Phuket, as its island charm harmonises with the festival spirit to manifest a once-in-a-lifetime experience like no other. This is the time to add Phuket to your travel list and decide where to stay for EDC Thailand 2026, since January is peak season.

Among diverse hotels in the area, Cassia Phuket stands out as the ideal base for festival travellers, offering walkable access and a calming hideaway from the riot of colour and music — serving as your one and only restful escape.
